[Geoserver-users] Caching Gridsets and tilesize

Hi,

Given a regular getMap request

http://localhost:4000/geoserver/wms?bbox=-244598.49057485908,7210763.50214684,-234814.55095186457,7220547.441769835&Format=image/png&request=GetMap&layers=XXXX&width=256&height=256&srs=EPSG:900913&transparent=true&tiled=true

I get a 256x256 image that is served using the integrated cache.

Subsequently if I request the same with a 768x768 image…

http://localhost:4000/geoserver/wms?bbox=-244598.49057485908,7210763.50214684,-234814.55095186457,7220547.441769835&Format=image/png&request=GetMap&layers=XXXX&width=768&height=768&srs=EPSG:900913&transparent=true&tiled=true

Then I get a 768x768 image that is NOT cached. The error is that the request does not align to the grid set EPSG:900913

So… What I would like to achieve is a 768x768 representation of the same original 256x256 tile and have that returned through the cache, i.e. The image contains the same details but is just an increase in resolution… How do you do this?

Kind Regards,

Rob

Hi Rob,
a 768x768 is not a tile with 256x256 tiling scheme so I am not surprised by the answer you are getting (although I think you are seeing that message in a response header rather than in a real error message).
I don’t see an immediate way for doing what you want, I mean a tile cache is a fixed pyramid of resolutions and tile sizes (in your case 256x256) so you simply cannot do what you are trying to, I believe, via tiles.

You might want to enable fullWMS with GWC then GWC would be allowed to response to a generic WMS call using tiles in cache but at that point things might not be that different than just using plan WMS (I know, I simplified a lot).

I think to achieve that you need to create a grid set that is 768x768 so that GWC can cache those tiles too.
