Describe Basic_tiling here.
Basic tiling is how we increase resolution. This procedure is based on using bigmap. You can also tile using Lat/Lon LatLon_tiling.
The setup for tiling requires creating an updated bigmap file and the make_scriptT.in file.
Making the bigmap
The first step to to make a bigmap. This provides the basic (and hopefully improved) topography that the new landmarks will be tiled to. We also use it for the coordinate frame of reference which lithos will use when building landmarks.
In general, we create an input file that is fed into bigmap that has the parameters that we want. An example of this is a file called bigEq4.in that I store in the support directory (it can be whatever name you want).

0You use this set of input values as standard input (stdin) for bigmap as such:
/usr/local/bin/bigmap < support/bigEq4.in
bigmap will run and create a bigmap with the standard MAPLET format. It will be created in MAPFILES and called EQUAT4.MAP (or whatever 6 character name you gave on line 4 of your input file). bigmap will also display the name of the bigmap created. Additionally, it will add the filename into the file BIGLIST.TXT.
Creating the make_scriptT.in file
To create the make_scriptT.in file, you must do several things. In summary, you will be
Running map_coverage to figure out where there are already existing maplets. It creates coverage_m.pgm.
Running make_tilefiles to get a list of X/Y coordinates for the new maplets. It reads coverage_m.pgm.
- Send the output of make_tilefiles to a temporary file and delete the user prompt
- Create a new make_scriptT.in file that has
- Coordinate reference system or bigmap name
- Name of the seed file
- list of coordinates
- Keyword "END"

- map_coverage ms, ms in the instructions above are in km. So for 75 cm input is 0, 0.00075.
