<script>
    $("#map").kendoMap({

        layers: [{
            type: "tile",
            urlTemplate: "http://a.tile.openstreetmap.org/#= zoom #/#= x #/#= y #.png",
            attribution: "&copy; OpenStreetMap"
        }]
    });

    var map = $("#map").data("kendoMap");
    var loc = map.layerToLocation([0, 0]).round();
/* The result can be observed in the DevTools(F12) console of the browser. */
    console.log(loc.toString());
    // -180.000000,85.000000

    $("#map").kendoMap({
        zoom: 1,

        }]
    });

    var map = $("#map").data("kendoMap");
    var point = new kendo.geometry.Point(0, 0);
    var loc = map.layerToLocation(point).round();
/* The result can be observed in the DevTools(F12) console of the browser. */
    console.log(loc.toString());
    // -180.000000,85.000000
