Extract Tiles

Function Description

Support the Extract Tiles function, and realize the distribution management of Tile Data by specifying a specific scale and customizing Extract Bounds.

It can be applied to the extraction of large-scale Tile Data, and can specify the extraction area and Tile scale, eliminating the tedious operation process of conventional cutting and extraction. For example, when a province needs to distribute HD Image Data to districts, cities and counties, it only needs to use the administrative boundaries of districts, cities and counties as Extract Bounds, and then Extract Tiles can be sent to the corresponding areas. At the same time, the extraction scale can also be specified. When the data with too high accuracy needs to limit the data accuracy level during extraction, the data can be distributed conveniently and quickly by selecting the scale without repeated image cutting.
