[mapserver-users] RASTER MAX SIZE
Hi everyone, We are planning to buy a huge raster file (9 GB) but before buying it we would need to know if mapserver can deal with this kind of images ( that large). I was reading the mapserver documentation but I couldn't find anything regarding this. Is there any limitation with the image size or just those given by the image format ( for example the 4GB Geotiff limit)? Thanks in advance , regards. Lic. Heraldo G.

Hi, I don't think there is any MapServer-specific raster size limit. I have successfully drawn (very) bigtiff images (~ 30 GB each) with MapServer, gdal and libgeotiff that were compiled against libtiff 4.

Assuming that MapServer can use an image this large, if you want to serve up maps with good performance, you will likely want to pre-process the data. (e.g. create smaller tiles, create overviews, etc.) I am pretty sure that a local agency here was serving a WMS based on a 20gb ECW file using MapServer.

Thanks David , it´s all I need to know. We are using tilecache so performance is not an issue after generating the tiles. Thanks for the advice anyway. Lic. Heraldo G.
