Hi all, if you need it, I have a Geoserver Instance not doing much at the moment that could be used. geoserver loves geoTiffs. It is trivial to set it up. Just a matter of dropping the Geotiff into a directory, configuring a layer and its ready to go.
Its a 2TB 32Gb Ram Ubuntu Trusty Server with lots of bandwidth available.
