If GeoTIFFs are in projections other than EPSG:900913 (as many are), run gdalwarp first:
gdalwarp -t_srs EPSG:900913 raster.tiff raster_merc.tiff
Run python gdal2tiles.py -h for usage instructions.
This is a variation of the gdal2tiles script that supports MapBox mbtiles SQLite tilesets as an output option. It has the same requirements as the original script - notably an installation of GDAL.
Usage of this command is
python gdal2tiles.py raster_merc.tiff raster_merc.mbtiles
The resultant .mbtiles file can be used in Maps on a Stick and elsewhere.
