Beta 2.15 rev 2 Landsat 1024M tileset
« on: January 06, 2005, 01:26:11 PM »
Hi Scott,

Nice addition of another tile set. Not terribly useful for planning trips, but I still like seeing the wider areas with better continuous data than the b&w aerials.

This isn't a big issue, but when I zoom out to 1024M Landsat image set, I get the zoomed out too far message and no tiles. When selected in drop down menu, all the tiles are greyed with "Tile request is invalid, theme id is incorrect".

It looks like there is really just one actual image set, with two scaled sets for 64M and 256M?

Also, from these images, it looks like we are living on Mars!

Happy New Year and keep up the good work.

Steve

Hey Steve,

I sent you an email earlier today, maybe on an address you don't check often (comcast I think).

I like the landsats for big picture type views, for web pages, perhaps.

There is just one tileset, that's correct.  And the 1024M isn't supposed to be there.  It does work, but unfortunately things get messy when the tiles start crossing zones, and they don't line up correctly.  So for now I've limited it to 256M.

The color -- yeah it's 'dull visual bands' which are the combination of a few different spectral bands.  I actually think it looks pretty good in most cases.
