Hi all
I have a largish raster dataset (2 GB) of hi resolution data points with
a small geographical footprint. What would people recommend as the best
way to prepare and then call data in the map file (with rendering
performance in mind). It isn't going to be a basemap and the output
legend will be based on the pixel value (e.g. wave height).
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
Hi Chris,
The guys have responded already with great recommendations (geotiff is
indeed still the best way to rock with rasters); I'd like to add,
regarding performance, that you'll see similar results with MapServer on
both Unix and Windows, as shown by the results in the recent WMS
Benchmarking exercise
(http://www.slideshare.net/gatewaygeomatics.com/wms-performance-shootout-2010).
