Serving raster layers on Google Cloud Platform
In this blog post, I will write about using Google cloud storage as a Raster Tile Server for static imagery.
In the GIS domain, various techniques are used to add custom raster overlay on top of a base maps, or to even use custom imagery, as a base map itself.
This approach is also useful if you have a large quantity of satellite or aerial imagery, that you need to serve at scale onto a Google map or any other GIS tool.
