13
14       There are three ways to set a map coverage area.
15
16       1)  Center,  zoom,  and dimensions: create a map of the specified size,
17       centered on a given geographical point at a given zoom level:
18
19          tilestache-compose.py -c config.json -l layer-name  -d  800  800  -n
20       37.8 -122.3 -z 11 out.jpg
21
22       2)  Extent and dimensions: create a map of the specified size that ade‐
23       quately covers the given geographical extent:
24
25          tilestache-compose.py -c config.json -l layer-name  -d  800  800  -e
26       36.9 -123.5 38.9 -121.2 out.png
27
28       3)  Extent  and  zoom: create a map at the given zoom level that covers
29       the precise geographical extent, at whatever pixel size is necessary:
30
31          tilestache-compose.py -c config.json -l layer-name  -e  36.9  -123.5
32       38.9 -121.2 -z 9 out.jpg
