OpenSeadragon 4.1.1

example: integrating with zoom.it tiles

Note: Zoom.it is not currently accepting new images, though hopefully it will in the future.

Zoom.it provides a simple service-based way of loading images and serving tiles. The Zoom.it service is based on the DZI format.

OpenSeadragon can render the DZI tiles and provide you all the features you can only get with OpenSeadragon.

To get started:

  1. Post your source image online somewhere.
  2. Paste its URL into http://zoom.it.
  3. You can then get the info you need about the resulting image by going to
    http://api.zoom.it/v1/content/?url=<YOUR_IMAGE_URL>.
  4. See below for how to format that information for OpenSeadragon.

For more advanced use, see the Zoom.it API.

Pulling Tiles From Zoom.it

If you are pulling image tiles from Zoom.it, please respect the copyright of the image creator and the policies of the Zoom.it service.

Example Inline Configuration for Rendering DZIs Hosted at Zoom.it

Configuration is done via the tileSources option (or programmatically).

OpenSeadragon({
    ...
    tileSources:   [{ 
        Image:  {
            xmlns: "http://schemas.microsoft.com/deepzoom/2009",
            Url: "http://cache.zoom.it/content/WwI0_files/",
            TileSize: "254", 
            Overlap: "1", 
            Format: "jpg", 
            ServerFormat: "Default",
            Size: { 
                Width: "5816",
                Height: "3961"
            }
        }
    }]
    ...
});
