-In order to conduct database transformations to the so-called "Google"

-an entry must be added to your spatial database's ``spatial_ref_sys`` table.
-Invoke the Django shell from your project and execute the

-.. code-block:: pycon
-
- $ python manage.py shell
- >>> from django.contrib.gis.utils import add_srs_entry
- >>> add_srs_entry(900913)

-This adds an entry for the 900913 SRID to the ``spatial_ref_sys`` (or equivalent)

-this projection. You only need to execute this command *once* per spatial database.
