Abstract
To make source image sets suitable for serving as tiled images, significant image processing is required. This chapter provides a discussion of the image processing techniques necessary to create a tile-based GIS. It discusses algorithms for manipulating, cutting, and scaling different types of images. Several image interpolation algorithms are given with examples and discussion of the relative benefits of each. In addition, this chapter provides guidance for choosing tile image sizes and file formats.
