Abstract
System and method for converting source image data to tile data including (a) selecting a source image set; (b) computing a scaling value for the source image set; (c) establishing tile set geographic bounds of a tile set that is created based on the scaling value; (d) converting the tile set geographic bounds to discrete tile bounds; (e) for each source image (i) determining source image geographic bounds; (ii) if there is an intersection between the source image geographic bounds and the tile set geographic bounds, (1) extracting image data from the source image at the intersection; (2) scaling the image data based on a pre-selected scale; (3) storing the scaled image data to a tile storage mechanism; and (f) repeating steps (a) through (e) for each of the source image sets.
