Hi, I'd like to create considerably large bitmaps by rendering SLD-styled layers using the geotools API. The rendering part looks straightforward, with a DataSource, Style created via SLDParser, StreamingRenderer, FeatureLayer, MapContent, etc. objects. But, it seems that creating large bitmaps using Java is not that simple. Moreover, I see that quite some work has already been done in the geotools library to this extent.
Still, looking at the documentation, it's not straightforward for me which way to go. If I already have a MapContent object, with appropriate FeatureLayer objects in it, what would be the intended / suggested way to render it into big bitmaps. Should one simple create a TiledImage, get the Graphics2D object via TiledImage.createGraphics(), and use the StreamingRenderer to render into this Graphics2D object? Or is there a better / more advised way of doing this? by big, I mean for example rendering an area of about 550km x 350km at a scale of 1:500.000, with 600dpi or more - that is images of about 26.000 x 16.000 pixels or more.
