<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>New to the list and mapping (other than using software and
navigation for camping/hiking/etc). I have special cartography that I
would like to use with OpenLayers but I am unsure exactly where to start.
At this point I have a single file and I am not sure what program it comes out
of. I currently use a custom solution that displays maps similar to
OpenLayers and Google, but without a WMS or TMS backend. The maps are
sliced in Photoshop for different zoom levels. What I would like to do is
use something like a WMS server or TileCache to serve tile sets of these maps
via OpenLayers. What I can’t find for the life of me is direction
on how to take these custom maps and slice them up to work with TileCache or a
WMS server. I found the mailing list post about the Avalon map and using
TileChache which is supposed to be able to do what I’m talking about, but
currently I have not had the opportunity to set up cgi on my webserver. (yes,
it’s IIS and it’s not my fault…wasn’t my
decision) <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
