Hi Mats, One option is to make some simple modifications to the geotiffs as you receive them. A single invocation of gdal_translate could introduce compression, which would reduce the file size significantly, and tiling, which would improve performance. If in doubt, use a couple of invocations

Dear Mats, Did you consider reprocessing your files as GeoTIFF with internal JPEG compression? At the end, if you are not against reprocessing your files, that could be an additional option. By this way, you can: - re-layout your data as you prefer, by internally retiling your GeoTIFFs for a

Hi Mats, I'm dealing with similar stuff, and I will drop a couple of links below for reference. In case of 1. consider adding tiling and inner overviews for each of your images with gdal_translate & gdaladdo (also look up cloud optimized geotiffs), and storing them in a CRS that will mostly
