Jonathan, We use an image server I wrote, Loris, plus OpenSeadragon. Here's an example: http://libimages.princeton.edu/osd-demo/?feedme=pudl0123%2F8172070%2F01%2F00000001.jp2 That image is 152500 x 4000 px: http://libimages.princeton.edu/loris/pudl0123%2F8172070%2F01%2F00000001.jp2/info.json Loris is on Github: https://github.com/pulibrary/loris as is OpenSeadragon: https://github.com/openseadragon/openseadragon More generally, this is one of many problems IIIF (International Image Interoperability Framework) exists to try to solve. You might want to check out our site, which has links to other tools as well: http://iiif.io/ Hope this helps, -Jon On 07/25/2014 11:36 AM, Jonathan Rochkind wrote: > Does anyone have a good solution to recommend for display of very large images on the web?
