MSDIS Web Services

MSDIS provides web services for mapping and imagery using ESRI Arc GIS server. These services can be consumed over the internet in various mapping applications. This method of serving data is particularly useful for imagery because consuming a service avoids the need for third party users to obtain and locally store very large raster imagery files.

How to connect to MSDIS Imagery Services Using ESRI ArcMap (PDF Version)
