[MapServer-users] Zoom levels and scales: Best practices, rules of thumb?

[Stefan Gofferje]

Hi again,

apologies for newbie questions but until now I have been only *using 
*maps, not really creating many.

Are there any rules of thumb, best practices or other guidelines for 
what zoom levels to configure for raster maps?

I have raster data for topo maps which are marked as being scale 1:50k, 
1:100k, 1:250k and 1:500k.

I also have raster data for plain maps at 1:5k, 1:10k, 1:20k, 1:40k, 
1:80k, 1:160k, 1:320k and 1:800k.

What would be a good layer/zoom level setup for those?

-S
