My stance for mapcache is that the data producer (i.e. you as the mapcache administrator) knows his data and therefore which format (*singular*) is best suited for a given tileset. I'd be happy to revisit my judgment if presented with a scenario where more than one format per tileset is actually needed.</div><div class="gmail_msg"><br></div><div class="gmail_msg">Cheers,</div><div class="gmail_msg">Thomas</div></div><br class="gmail_msg"><div class="gmail_quote gmail_msg"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_msg">On Tue, Nov 22, 2016 at 12:19 PM tellett <<a href="mailto:thomas.ellett@statkart.no" class="gmail_msg" target="_blank">thomas.ellett@statkart.no</a>> wrote:<br class="gmail_msg"></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote gmail_msg" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hi Thomas,<br class="gmail_msg">

Really, its just so that we don't need to have 2 separate layers in the<br class="gmail_msg">
service for each format type. The norwegian mapping authority has about 25<br class="gmail_msg">
cache 'services' and so its a bit messy in the config and WMTS capabilities<br class="gmail_msg">
file if we have to have 50 tilesets instead of 25.<br class="gmail_msg">
<br class="gmail_msg">
Its no problem technically having 2 tilesets called 'topo2_png' and<br class="gmail_msg">
'topo2_jpeg' for example (they would have the same title and abstract), it<br class="gmail_msg">
just would have been preferable for us to have 1 layer support multiple<br class="gmail_msg">
formats so that the client could call the same service/layer/tileset and<br class="gmail_msg">
choose the format type through the kvp parameter. Not a show-stopper for us,<br class="gmail_msg">
we just have to change our way of thinking :)<br class="gmail_msg">
