Contributions summary:Peter primarily contributed to fixing and improving existing functionality within the SharpMap library. Their work focused on correcting indexing issues related to transformations of MultiPoint geometries, and handling cases where MultiPoints were not correctly handled if style was not a Symbol. They also fixed a rendering issue where the map wasn't rendered if no static layers were present, and incorporated enhancements related to the handling of spatial indexes.
