Hello Mapserver-Community, Hello List,
 
first of all i want to thanks for the great work you guys are doing. The mapserver-project with all his facets does really deliver a great range of useful tools and services for different questions.

Right now i am looking for a WMS and WMTS solution for publishing big amounts of high resolution tiffs. Because of concerns about our disk storage i would like to use only a single  raster datastore for both services, i.e. WMS and WMTS. 
 
The realization of a WMS Service in front of a tiff datastore is no problem with mapserver / mapfile. For the realization of a WMTS solution i set up the extension mapcache. I also got it running as disk cache solution. But i want to try if it is possible to set up it in front of the tiff datastore. As it says in the documentation (http://mapserver.org/mapcache/caches.html#mapcache-cache-tiff) it is possible to use a gtiff cache, but right now i didn't get it running (see my mapcache.xml in annex). Also i don't have real knowledge about the structure of the tiff store for mapcache. As far as  i know gdal gives me with the tools gdal2tiles and gdal_retile/gdaltindex two tools for computing a tile structure. Could such a structure reused or do i have to use another structure? Anyway i am quit new to tiling storys, so maybe i just don't get it.
 
It would be nice if somebody could show me mapcache.xml example for a tiff cache and maybe could also descripe the needed structure of the tiff store. I really appreciate your help. Thanks in advance.

Kind regards,

JM
