<div dir="ltr">Thanks, Brent. Looking back, the TIFF is 20GB because it's actually extents about 1.8x beyond the municipal boundary, so your original math bears out. I'd be looking at ~32GB for the resulting level 11-20 tiles.<div>

<div>Remember my PNG tiles are compressed.
And my estimate (based on my Landsat experience) is that if you
tiled (into compressed PNGs) your 20GB (why isn't it 12.5 GB?),
the resulting levels 11 thru 20 would be a total of about 20GB.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Ok. So, my 20 GB uncompressed TIFF image would
come in at roughly 26 GB tiled? Is that per tile level? This
number is an order of magnitude smaller than Brent's math.

Also, the bottom level should be roughly equal in

data isn’t really changing, but rather only being
chunked up into smaller pieces. Each new level
decreases in size to approximately 1/4<sup>th</sup>
the previous with regard to tile numbers, and the

<p class="MsoNormal">We have a client who
would like us to tile and serve up
high-resolution aerial photography that
they own. The area is about 800 square
miles and the imagery is 6-inch
resolution. They'd like to be able to view
the imagery at zoom levels 11 through 20
(with level 20 being 1 pixel=6 inches). Is
there any way at all to determine how
large a resulting raster tile set might
be?</p>
