Hello, Sorry if this question is a bit newbie-ish, but I've searched quite a bit for a guide on how to do this and haven't come up with anything yet.
I have a pile of JPEG images which are tiles of a map. I'd like to serve them as a layer in MapServer (to use them within OpenLayers, but that's another story). Each image has its co-ordinates built into the filename, like so: ~/tiles $ ls tile-250000-253000-340000-343000.jpg tile-256000-259000-340000-343000.jpg tile-262000-265000-340000-343000.jpg tile-268000-271000-340000-343000.jpg tile-250000-253000-343000-346000.jpg tile-256000-259000-343000-346000.jpg The list is truncated - the format is tile-minX-maxX-minY-maxY.jpg where the origin is in the bottom-left of the map. I've read that I can use gdaltindex to create the shapefile to index these tiles, but when I try it, it complains that they aren't georeferenced: "It appears no georeferencing is available for `tile-271000-274000-358000-361000.jpg', skipping." ...which is understandable, as they're just JPEGs. Any idea how I tell it where each tile is? How do I put this into Mapserver? If there's a HOWTO or similar out there that I've missed, could someone please let me know where it is? Thank you. PS. Sorry about the newbieness - there's just so much to learn about mapping software and I'm a bit lost. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Serving-jpeg-tiles---is-there-a-howto--tp20998876p20998876.html Sent from the Mapserver - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ mapserver-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/mapserver-users
