#gdal2tiles-example

Example showing how to create map tiles from an image using GDAL's gdal2tiles. Made for second edition of Maptime Amsterdam. This example uses a map of Corsica from the David Rumsey Map Collection.

Prerequisites:

• Install Python2.7
• Install GDAL-core
• Install GDAL-Python bindings

To create map tiles from any given image, run gdal2tiles.py from your console:

gdal2tiles.py -p raster -w none corsica.jpg

The created tiles can be used in Leaflet by using Leaflet's tms option:

L.tileLayer(tileUrl, {tms: true}).addTo(map);
