A tile is a rectangular or square section of a map or image that is used in tile-based mapping systems to display geographic information efficiently. This approach divides a larger map into smaller pieces, allowing for faster loading times and better management of data as only the visible tiles need to be loaded and rendered. This technique is particularly useful in web mapping applications where users can zoom in and out, accessing detailed imagery or data on demand.
