Hi list,

hmm, I think I read everything concerning the tiling of raster images by 
now. But the best hint I've found was the following URL ( 
http://remotesensing.org/gdal/gdal_utilities.html ). I read as well this 
document ( http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/doc/raster-howto.html ), but no 
solution in sight. I tried to find the gdaltindex (for windows), but did 
not succeed. I have the OpenEV installed, but this does not offer tiling.

Fact is: I have several dozens of raster images which are mostly between 
100 and 500 MB. So, would you recommend to do some tiling with these sizes? 
If yes, what tool should I use?

Can someone give be a tip?

Thanks,

Stefan
