WMS Tiling Cache support in gvSIG Project
Aim of the project
WMS_Tile_Caching has been defined within OSGeo, with a WMS_Tiling_Client_Recommendation. The aim of the proposal is to add WMS Tiling Cache support to gvSIG, in order to allow the loading of this kind of layers (WMS-Cache).
Planned Timeline
Draft:
- First designing raster tile support in gvSIG core.
- Adding a new renderer on the same Map Control.
- It should be defined the way a tile layer is going to be integrated with the rest of layers, attending to discrete zoom levels.
- Management of multiple tile layers with possibly different zoom levels.
