Dear community,
These are previewers for Esri Shapefiles and Geotiffs.
All previewers have a spinner and a file size limit. If the file size limit is exceeded, an error is thrown.
Before the file is loaded, the file size is queried first. The file is loaded only when the file size falls below the threshold value (file_size_limit).
Esri Shapefiles
Parameters
For Esri Shapefiles, there is only the file size threshold parameter (file_size_limit). If the application should run too slow, it is recommended to reduce this value.
Geotiffs
Parameters
With geotiffs it is also possible to define a maximum number of rows and columns (since compressed tiffs can have a small data size but still be too large to view). Since no special mimetype was available for geotiffs (only tiff), an error is thrown in case of missing projection information (or unsupported tiff variants). Also, there is a problem with the geotiff reader used that an error cannot be caught :\ Therefore, a timeout was defined in which the raster should be loaded (if not, an error is thrown).
cheers,
martin
