Thanks for this post. GDAL2Tiles is exactly what I need. I've been serving customized weather maps to astronmers for a couple of years using UNM Mapserver but the time has come to switch to Google Maps. This article will help me figure out how to tile my GeoTiff images and more importantly how to properly feed the tiles to Google code. You make it sound easy.

Great work Klokan!

If anybody would like to use GDAL2Tiles command line utility under Windows then consider to install OSGeo4W instead of FWTools.

Details at the OSGeo4W homepage or at http://help.maptiler.org/betatest/

Please check the http://www.maptiler.org/ website ...

Please check the http://www.maptiler.org/ website for updated version of the GDAL2Tiles with the GUI and installer. It is a free and open-source project.

The tutorial written on this blog is not anymore valid because there is a new version of GDAL2Tiles. For similar results you should use the "Image Based Tiles" in the GUI or "-p raster" option for the gdal2tiles.

MapTiler/GDAL2Tiles also supports the world file which is available for the NaturalWorld dataset so you don't need to do the preprocessing with gdal_translate...

Thank you for posting this, it has been a help. I am having a problem when I run the gdal2tiles.py. I get the error:
File "../gdal/gdal2tiles.py", line 128, in ?
import gdal
ImportError: No module named gdal

How can I get or install the module gdal, I cannot find such a module in the FWtools or in the gdal build directory?

Thanks.

Hi mitrich,
I have so far no experience with WMS tile caching, so you have to search the web to find a solution.

Bjørn, Thank you for this interesting post.
May you show me the way how to use/implement this tiles cache with WMS-servers. Maybe WMS-C server?
My goal is to publish WMS-service, based on the tilecache. And I want to connect to this WMS-service from ArcGIS. (instead of using ArcGIS Image Server)
I have MapServer installed on my computer, but i don't know what to do. Pure WMS-service is render new images, but i want to use tilecache.
I am newbie in OGS, so I need a tutorial.

Thank you.
