Pyramided Tiles

In the past, we’ve seen how we can generate pyramided tiles from a GeoTiff with GeoTrellis. This month I learned how to do that with GDAL, using gdal2tiles.py from the May 2020 release of GDAL 3.1.

This blog post presents a tutorial for generating pyramided map tiles (also called Slippy Map tiles) from a GeoTIFF using GDAL, which can be used in Leaflet or OpenLayers. Read the full article on the Azavea blog here.
