Description

Consider computing the resolution of each tile based on the geometric error and world-scale projection. This would mean calculating the target resolution based on geo error + range and then calculating the target data level to rasterize. In planar projection this can be world units while in ellipsoid it can be lat / lon.

Research direction

Start by locating ImageOverlayPlugin and reading how tile resolution, geometric error, range, and data levels are currently handled. Define the target resolution and rasterization level for both planar world units and ellipsoid latitude/longitude, then verify the behavior in the relevant rendering paths.
