MBtiles look weird and have values from 0-255 #14

Of course, I had not thought about that. Most image formats don't allow arbitrary numbers (like (geo)tif does), but only one or more bands in 8 bit (8^2 = 256). I guess you'll need to check whether it is possible to use tiffs for the tiles, or whether there are any supported image formats that don't have these restrictions in the range of values they can contain.

It could also be an idea to work with a simpler directory structure of tiles, rather than MBTiles (which is just a container format).
