Thanks, but I still don't get it and need some more hints. This is about finding the corners of a tile which is a discrete unit with discrete center points. The tahproject.pm computes the mercator tile height the way I do and Tileset.pm also uses 256 pixel tile image size. I am guessing that the osmarender export function deliver tile density for any centerpoint, so I probably need to reach to the guy producing the export code or looking at the code itself to know how to compute corner coordinates for this : any center, any size "tile". The exporter takes the geodetic center as a parameter, but I expect it to deliver a map evenly around the center of the projection. If not I don't see how I can find the corners. chuss Olav > Olav Kvittem schrieb: >> Hi, >> >> I wonder how I compute the coordinates of the corners of the images >> received from the web export function >> for an osmarender image.
