Interface TiledResource

WritableTiledResource

public interface TiledResource extends Resource
A resource which content can be accessed by smaller chunks called tiles. The use of TiledResource is not strictly necessary for efficient data loading because Resource implementations should automatically take advantage of tiling when answering requests. However, clients may use this information for optimizing their loading strategy.

A TiledResource may contain multiple TileMatrixSet instances, each one for a different CoordinateReferenceSystem. Most format specifications only support a single TileMatrixSet, but a few ones like WMTS may have several.

All methods in this interface return non-null values.
