Hi Tom, My question wasn't clear, or you did not answer my question ;-) I was looking for a compelling *use-case* where the solution requires a tile server to support both jpeg and png for a given tileset. My stance for mapcache is that the data producer (i.e. you as the mapcache administrator) knows his data and therefore which format (*singular*) is best suited for a given tileset. I'd be happy to revisit my judgment if presented with a scenario where more than one format per tileset is actually needed.

The norwegian mapping authority has about 25 cache 'services' and so its a bit messy in the config and WMTS capabilities file if we have to have 50 tilesets instead of 25. Its no problem technically having 2 tilesets called 'topo2_png' and 'topo2_jpeg' for example (they would have the same title and abstract), it just would have been preferable for us to have 1 layer support multiple formats so that the client could call the same service/layer/tileset and choose the format type through the kvp parameter. Not a show-stopper for us, we just have to change our way of thinking :) Tom -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Mapcache-support-for-multiple-format-types-tp5296486p5296917.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
