Hi, If imagery is finally used from GeoWebCache the only effect that overviews have is making the seeding of cache a bit faster. When the cache is full GWC will never hit the original images.

After reading lots of use-cases I have decided to simple reduce the size using gdal_translate -outsize 25% 25% which reduces the resolution to 1/4 of the original. The size goes from 75mb to 4,5 for each image. Obviously zooming into 1:100 doesn´t look good, but this level of detail wasn´t really needed! My question is ...If I use gdaladdo to create overviews, will there be any benefits if the images are served via GeoWebCache? cheers for any advice, Rob ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
