Hi Jon, Thanks very much for your reply. Yes, I am desired to render europe data with high level details along with very low level details. But the thing which makes me surprise is when i am at higher zoom level my output is just various country border & names of countries. Ideally this should take less amount of time because it has to process less amount of data (I guess so). But it is taking more time to render at high zoom level as compared to low zoom level. As I am increasing my zoom level from low to high, the rendering time increase in proportion.
Again, could you please explain me in more details about how to merge static map image tiles with dynamic map image containing route planning information? Please help me, if possible. Thanks a lot !!!
