In this article, we will explain the basics of tile, formats, advantages and disadvantages, and usage scenarios in an easy-to-understand manner! ■ What are GIS tiles? In GIS, a “tile” is an image file in which a vast map image is divided into small pieces of the same size (usually 256x256 pixels). When a user zooms or pans the map, it quickly displays only the necessary parts, creating a map experience that feels like infinite scrolling. ■ Main tile formats XYZ format: T...
