Remarks

The TileCacheInfo object contains information on the tiling scheme for the cache. The tiling scheme includes the tiling origin, spatial reference, tile size in pixels and information on the Levels of Detail at which the service is cached.

LODInfos enumerate a LODInfo object which describes a scale and resoluton.

Using the tiling scheme information in the TileCacheInfo object the client can calculate the tiles that cover any rectangular extent in map space and then retrieve tiles either directly from  the virtual directory, or from the tile handler or by making GetMapTile or GetLayerTile requests against the map service.
