1. map image server

Hi

I would like to efficiently display maps on our web server. I was
wondering if anyone knows of freeware that:

1. allows large images such as maps to be compressed so they can be
viewed relatively quickly.

2. allows users to pan and zoom the maps using the mouse.

I have been to the EarthEtc website (http://www.earthetc.com/) and they
offer a client plugin with their server to pan and zoom into maps. But
surely something is also needed on the server side to make this
possible, as their download only works with maps displayed by their
server.

They also use a compression technique from ERMapper called ECW. However,
I would prefer open source freeware, if possible something that works
directly with Apache on a Unix platform.

Anyone knows where I could find something - preferably freeware - that
does all of the above?

Thanks
