Hi!

I'm trying to develop an iOS application which will use 18 MrSID as an offline map. Their size is 22Mb for each one.

Using Lizardtech GeoView I have exported all of them as a GeoTIFF image but this image has a 2.12GB size. And now I don't know what I have to do.

My question is: Can I use MrSID files with ArcGIS SDK for iOS or do I need to export them to another format to use them with this SDK?

You cannot directly consume MrSID files in Runtime SDK for iOS.

You will need to either
1) Publish the mrSID data through a mxd/msd file to an ArcGIS Server as a service (this would require you to have network connectivity to consume the service through the SDK). See this.
2) Create a Tile Package using the mrSID data in ArcMap. You can then copy over the tilepackage to the device and access it even when the device is offline. See this.
