Just put each set of same-resolution images in a single layer, and use
MINSCALE/MAXSCALE to select which set is visible at any one time. You
can group those layers into one group so you only have to refer to that
group and everything turns on and off automatically.

You can see this on TopoZone. Go to www.topozone.com
<http://www.topozone.com/> , click on the "Featured Map" at the bottom
left of the home page, and you'll be viewing a 1:24,000/1:25,000 USGS
quad at a 1:50,000 view scale. Use the View Scale menu to the left of
the map and you can view that TIFF image at any view scale from 1:10,000
to 1:1,000,000. It's not particularly legible at 1:1,000,000 <g> but
you get the idea. There are three different versions of each quad
online, and the appropriate one is chosen automatically using the method
I described above.

Hi Group,
=20
I would like to use different resolution images (tiffs) in my mapserver
application. For example, for global scale I need to use a 50km
resolution image and as the user zoom in I need to use one of the 8 km
resolution images specific to that area, and if the user further zooms
in, I need to use one of 1 km resolution images. Do I need to use a
TileIndexing/SHPTREE for this? Is there a way to do this?

Thanks a lot
