PRINT FROM HIGH RESOLUTION JPEG

Does anyone have a source to make a high resolution poster size print from a mapsmadeeasy jpg file, suitable for framing?

The don't have to be numbered sequentially at all. Just get them into an uploadable form with only numbers, letters, dashes, or underscores and it should be fine as long as your editing software didn't touch the tags...

Not yet. But we are looking for a printing partner. We have someone that we work with here in San Diego but they won't be able to support the volume of jobs we would anticipate throwing them. Let us know if you find anything.

Most photo printing services will handle a jpeg to that size.
You'd be better of using the RGB tiff if you want genuine lossless high resolution. Any professional photo printing service should be able to deliver on that.

Thanks, Mike. I am not quite ready to print, I am struggling to stitch images for a project I'm doing, a 200 acres college campus. It is a very slow process to try to merge 900mb tiff images in Photo Shop.

If your dealing with geotagged images from a flight mission, I'd jpeg convert them en-mass and upload them to MME.
If you are already dealing with MME output, I'd work backwards.
Work out the size of your final print.
Batch resize the individual tiffs (allowing for overlap and a little generosity of resolution).
Then use the auto stitching in photoshop
You are still going to need considerable grunt to do that with 900 images!
200 acres is not that much, if possible, refly and process in MME for a single tiff output

"refly and process in MME for a single tiff output" I've messed up the images and files to a FUBAR point (while attempting to renumber them) so I am going to refly the project.
However the files are numbered sequentially after each mission. Lets say mission one is numbered 1-700. Mission two will also begin numbering images at 1. How do I get around that?
