Question

I have an OpenLayers map, which uses OpenSpace as a base layer, and is overlayed with a WMS layer supplied by my system. The issue I have is that the detail from my WMS layer is very fine grained and the default levels of zoom that OpenLayers has isn’t close enough to allow for distinct viewing of the features (for background its mapping drains on a street which are often opposite each other).

The client has no real interest in preserving the base layer quality, and would be happy to zoom in closer at the cost of loss of quality of the base layer. I cannot seem to achieve this in open layers. Does anyone have any knowledge of how to achieve this?

Thanks

Take a look at OpenLayers’s ClientZoom functionnality: http://dev.openlayers.org/examples/clientzoom.html
