Coding Challenge #57: Mapping Earthquake Data

In this Coding Challenge, I visualize earthquake data from the USGS (http://earthquake.usgs.gov/data/) by mapping the latitude, longitude and the magnitude of earthquakes with p5.js. The map imagery is pulled from mapbox.js and the math demonstrated coverts latitude, longitude to x,y via Web Mercator.
