Just choose a different format as appropriate to your need.

I managed to work this out with one jpg raster file (I had tryed this tutorial before but always choosed wrong type :slight_smile: ). There are two slight proplems tough. When I goto the demo and zoom in the map will go all white. Is there any config or something I can try? Secondly, I have 66 of those jpg files that make one area. Is there quick way to put the all in there? :slight_smile:

best regards

Ciao Einar,
a few quick suggestions:

Jpeg is not the best format for GIS + Java, I would suggest you to:

1> convert your tiff files to tiled geotiff
2> add overviews to your tiff files
3> create a mosaic
4> serve the mosaic with geoserver

Here you have some sample documentation that describe how to this preprocessing with open source tools:

make sure to give the tutorials a look in that order, however, feel free to come back with questions.

Ciao,
Simone.

Glad to be of help,
one thing, could you make some sample of your jpg files available for me?
We can set up an FTP for you.
