Abstract
A network server receives, from a client device, an indication of a first raster map image that depicts a geographic map of a certain region and a certain zoom level. The network server obtains a second raster map image corresponding to the geographic region and the zoom level and generating a description of a difference in pixels between the indicated first raster map image and the second raster map image. The network server then provides the description of the determined difference in pixels to the client device for generating the second raster map image at the client device.
