<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>When using a combination of the shptree and tileindex utilities,
does it matter which order they are ran? I have tile-indexed my data
first, and then ran shptree on the individual shape files and the tileindex
files. It occurred to me that the tileindex files point to the .shp files,
and wondered if this is optimized. (I read somewhere that you should not specify
file extensions in .map files when using quad indexes, I’m wondering if
this is true also in the tileindex files.) Do I need to tileindex the
shape files after quad-indexing them, and then quad-index the tileindex files,
or am I obsessing over nothing?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
