    5 ptconsole is a simple web application that allows you to encode jp2 file pyramids (layer by layer and area by area) by using 2D images pulled from WMS compliant servers such as [http://geoserver.org/ GeoServer] and [http://mapserver.org/ Mapserver].  You can point the web-app at your own servers or somebody else's as long as the servers comply with certain output specifications.  You create jp2 files with the application, and then see the result in 3D in the 3D tab, via the pTolemy3D applet.  The download package includes an http server (Jetty), so if you wished, you could make some simple configuration changes to serve this output data beyond your own desktop.

    77pTolemy3D's tile architecture, as explained in PtolemyDataTileSystem, defines what kind of output you need from the WMS system, the most important is that the WMS can output SRS=EPSG:4326 and produce images at a WIDTH/HEIGHT of 1024 square. You can enter any server url into the MAP tab to test whether the server can satisfy the default parameters of the MAP tab.  Use the DD WIDTH select box to emulate the exact tile size of any specific jp2 pyramid layer that you are interested in creating, to see if the server can serve data at that particular scale.
