[Mapserver-users] aerial views

[Ed McNierney]

Sven -

What file format are you using for the aerial images?  It is possible that a better choice of file format and/or the creation of image pyramids/overviews may help quite a bit.

Are you trying to view the images at close to "full resolution" or are you zoomed out, viewing a large amount of image data at once?

Hi list,

I want to create a layer with aerial views of the underlaying map.
Unfortunately the filesizes are much too big to get acceptable 
aquisition times. 
But I have read that it is possible to split these images into
several boxes of certain extent.
Does anybody have experiences with that and could give me some
hints how to manage this?

Thanks in forward,

Sven
