Make output conform to OSGeo Tilemap/TMS/Google specifications #421

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

SQLite databases the tool outputs cannot be used with Web Map Services or 
mobile apps that can read SQLite db databases, or GIS software (tried it). 
Would be great if you could make the output of GMapCatcher, both tiles and 
databases, conform to TMS specifications so that they become more useful for 
other software. Here are some pointers:

http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Tile_Map_Service_Specification
I would like to use GMapcatchers output to make offline maps for use with 
mobile map apps such as OruxMaps and Locus Maps, but I can't figure out what to 
do to alter them myself. Any tips from other users would be greatly appreciated 
as well!

Each of our outputs (Tile Repository) was created to solve a specific problem, 
changing them will create a backward compatibility problem.

...But adding new Tiles Repos is easy you can use the existing one as a 
template:
