Biomes would be simplest, but the issues come into play with biome sizes. In a place like the dead marshes, the skyveiw isn't going to change a lot. But in Gondor...

And if you did it depending on your exact coordinates, it would either take up incredible amounts of RAM, or other system resources.

I would think it best to divide the world's chunks into zones, maybe a few thousand chunks each, and have the images slowly merge into adjacent images when you move. It might still cause lag, but a lot less than coordinate, and would look better than by biome.
