<TITLE>Improving ka-map speed with non-cached WMS?</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<!-- Converted from text/rtf format -->
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have a ka-map application which consumes WMS services, consisting of various imagery layers. We don't want to precache tiles for the WMS. We also have precached tiles for vector data in the application.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I don't know if it matters, but the web server uses IIS, not Apache.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Other viewers, such as ArcGIS and Quantum GIS, can consume the same WMS services and have much faster draw times than our Ka-Map application.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">We would like to see improved draw times for the WMS imagery, again, without precaching it. Can anyone make recommendations or point me to a resource discussing this?</FONT></P>
