Hi,
The SuperOverlays.txt document
(http://tilecache.org/docs/SuperOverlays.txt) gives this example for
the getCell operation:
>>> cell = basic.getCell((-10,-90,12,-80), exact=False)
>>> cell
(8, 0, 3)
The getCell function calculates x,y,z using:
res = self.resolutions[z]
x0 = (minx - self.bbox[0]) / (res * self.size[0])
y0 = (miny - self.bbox[1]) / (res * self.size[1])
Assuming the standard zoom levels, plug and chug gives you
res = 0.02197265625
x0 = (-10 - -180) / (0.02197265625 * 256)
x0 = 30.22
That is nowhere near 8, which is what the example shows. So what am I missing?
