Re: [Geotools-devel] Proposed change of org.geotools.tile

Afternoon Chris; The goal of org.geotools.tile is really to provide a "direct access" api in a style similar to our WMS client code. An implementation exists for the World Wind servers and I would love to see tiled WMS handled (indeed the interfaces are based on the tiled WMS definitions). The

Here you have a few thoughts that I have been giving to three topics which may be seems different but which I would like to reconcile at least at the tilecache level 1>geoweb cache 2>geotools tile 3>geotools internal overviews management (yeah I am talking about wither reusing overviews when you h

Interesting, I didn't realize that org.geotools.tile exists. It might be really good to reconcile the implementation in geotools with what Arne's done in GeoWebCache, so we can reuse code. All our work we like to get in geotools if there's the potential for wider reuse, but I wasn't aware the

You are correct Andrea; although it does serve up blocks of GridCoverage for a give request; so perhaps it could be folded in behind Simone's GridAccessFactory? - http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/GridAccess+based+on+WCS+Specification Right now uDig has a renderer that just calls this s

Sounds good, I am the module maintainer for unsupported/tile if you have any questions please ask. You should find the code base organized to allow: - alternate TileCache implementations to be substituted (although perhaps we need to make a plug-in mechanism?) - additional "tile" servers We may

Hi everyone, the module org.geotools.tile currently has an implementation for accessing the NASA World Wind server and an implementation of a SimpleTileCache, which caches only the result of the last query. We would like to add support for WMS-C [1]. Server implementations are available from Meta
