[Mapserver-users] Tiling a large raster

[Till Adams]

Dear Matthew,

you may try "TileImage". It is software from the deegree project, but as 
I remember it only works with jpg, gif and png. Perhaps it's worth have 
a look at http://deegree.sourceforge.net/ -- couldbe they changed this.

I can send the software to you, but it is about 4 MB as a whole and I 
didn't want to send this to the whole list.

Cheers,
Till
