Hi

One thing to add is that ideally you want to split tiles so that they are
smaller where there is more detail and larger elsewhere.  If you look at
the map viewer on the Garmin web site, for example - Metro Guide Europe,
you can see the tile outlines.  Over London they are much smaller than
anything we do, although there is just one tile over much of Wales. Of
course they have more data.
