Hi, @Holger: I'm quite impressed by this example. Are there for each zoomlevel individual raster layers/files used?
I'm now interested in experiences and hints about more things: 1. My files are not as nice as Hogleres files are. What would you suggest to smooth them. Is it possible to smoth them using gdal? Or is it possible with mapnik symbolizers -- maybe according to zoom levels. 2. It seems that I'll have Thousands of Tiff-files for maybe two or three zoom levels (I hopw I'll be able to create a suitable TFW-Files for them); what would you suggest to work with them with mapnik? Should I create a big file for it? Is that maybe faster (if the file fits in to memory) to work with them?
