the approach that Andre is proposing is actually used for a DTM matrix at http://www.carto.net/williams/yosemite/ each time the user pans or zooms, a new matrix of dtm values is transfered. The values that are displayed are interpolated bilinear. A serverside CGI script extracts the requested range and resolution from a quad-tree like structure. Even if, in my case the data is dtm values, it could be adopted to other grid values as well. In order to keep the transfer-rates low you can dynamically zip the data using Apache mod-gzip. In my case the dtm resolution varies a bit - a matrix is around 400x400 to 500x500 and the transfer size per matrix is around 120-160k. Andreas --- In [email protected], "Andre M.
