[TCMUG] ArcGIS Cache in Mapserver

[McGuire, Matthew]

I’m not using anything. I want to provide a cached WMS to external developers. I do not believe the particular app that is driving this is GeoMoose. But I’ll check. It is definitely not OpenLayers.


However, I would want this accessible to all WMS clients that support WMS-C (is that what it’s called?), so I guess that pretty much throws out option 2.

Are you using an OpenLayers or GeoMOOSE based application? There exists code in both for direct access to the ArcGIS Tiled Cache.

Anyone have any thoughts on connecting to an ArcGIS Tiled Cache map service with mapserver?

I guess there are two possibilities:

1)      Converting it to a WMS tiled cached

2)      Using some mapserver extension to connect to ArcGIS Tiled Caches that I’ve never heard of.

If the second doesn’t exist, does anyone have any advice on creating the first? Keep in mind that I can’t expose the original map as a wms due to licensing issues. I suppose I could stand one up internally… but that could take a while.

Ideally, I’d like to convert the tiles that are already there rather than make new ones.

Thanks!
