  • Proposed Topics
    • standardised sqlite schema for tile caches
    • TMS/WMTS evolutions:
      • Tile merging (i.e. equivalent of WMS LAYERS=baselayer,overlaylayer)
      • TMS multiple grids per tileset
      • WMTS multiple url endpoints (eg tile1.domain.tld, tile2.domain.tld...): is this still needed now that browsers allow many more connections per server?
