You might also try reporting your issues to geotiff.js project on GitHub. I’m 
fairly certain that library decodes tiles using JavaScript so it is probably 
that which is slowing it down over simply downloading the tiles. I’ve been 
going back and forth on an issue related to WebP support, where the project 
maintainer is adding a feature for browser-based decoding. This happens to work 
for the way GDAL produces COGs with WebP encoding, where each tile is stored as 
a standalone WebP file, and might be true for other compression schemes as 
well. However, if for example, each encoded tile is not standalone and requires 
information from the GeoTIFF headers, then this won’t be possible.

There is a COG mailing list (not very active from the looks of it):

You might ping Vincent https://github.com/vincentsarago too!

Hi

While I was reading about COG format, I thought it was great to replace 
"gdal2tiles" if the COG was properly generated (I mean, using the option 
TILING_SCHEME=GoogleMapsCompatible , and maybe something else I miss. I am 
generating it, so I can optimize that).
Then I was expecting that geotiff.js (or any other client js library) will be 
able to do the proper RANGE request to produce the tiling that libraries like 
openlayers of leaflet is expecting. Yes, in Web Mercator projection with 
aligned tiles, so no transformation is needed.

My initial target is just for RGBA uint8 images... plain vanilla. Storing the 
COG file in S3, without any proxy in between doing any conversion. Just relying 
on the RANGE request to get the needed area. My initial idea is to keep the 
openlayers/leaflet 256x256 tiles. This allows parallel requests to the server, 
and is very fast (and I do not have to refactor all my js code). But maybe 
there is a better/faster solution (again, with S3 direct access, no proxy in 
the server side. That would require deploying the "proxy" on every geographical 
region).

However I have not found any proper solution (my search-fu is not the best, to 
be honest). I would like something that performs at least as fast as the tiles 
produced by gdal2tiles.

Do you know any solution/example?

Thanks
