tiles

(this is related to another question about implementation on iPhone)

I have a large image, size around 30000 (w) x 6000 (h) pixels. You may consider it's like a big map. I assume I need to crop it up into smaller tiles. Questions:

what is the tile strategy?

Requirements:

whole image (though cropped) can be scrolled up/down/left/right by swipes
zoom in (up to pixel-to-pixel) out (down to screen-fit-by-height) by the 2-finger operation
memory efficiency by lazy loading tiles

Thanks!
