[mapserver-users] RASTER MAX SIZE

2009-08-12 Thread Rodríguez , Heraldo

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.

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.
