Jaakko, I use locally, in QGIS software, a georeferenced version
of TLM-50 for Haiti with a smaller size (ie. 374MB). The archive file
containing can be imported easily in QGIS. It would then be easier to create a
WMS layer. This archive contains 82 georeferenced maps. These files are simply
named with the tile number (for example, 5711-2.tif). The archive also contains
tfw and prj files for each image.
Its seems that the download have been made from the Haiti
Eartquake Data Portal (same name, same size).

To download the archive (374MB) we click on the link Topographic Maps, Haiti
