Convert a single large image overlay to tiles for Google Maps

Question

I have a large high-resolution image that I am using for an overlay using Google Maps v3 API. This works fine for desktop and laptop computers with a reasonable network connect

Answer 1

You can do the entire thing clientside without tile pre-cutting

See https://github.com/Murtnowski/GMap-JSlicer

slicer = new JSlicer(document.getElementById('map'), 'myImage.png');
slicer.init();

Very simple.
