KGIS's database administrator Chris Halcomb plans to discuss the upcoming ArcSDE Raster Image restrictions, as well as, the Image Services now available to the KGIS Users. Chris will also discuss how to create a connection to ArcGIS Server to access the numerous Image Services KGIS has created over the last couple of years.

Dear KGIS User Departments:
KGIS currently has over 350 gigabytes of aerial raster imagery (“Orthos”) in our database that is redundant to our needs. Since all the KGIS websites, applications, and many ArcMap Desktop users are now accessing aerial imagery via ArcGIS Server, and as announced at the last KGIS User Group meeting on October 28th, KGIS intends to begin restricting access to imagery stored in the database beginning December 9th for eventual removal approximately one month later after the first of the year. The image services simplifies imagery management, greatly reduces the time to get the images out to the users, removes duplicate sets of the same data, and dynamically mosaics different years of images together for a single mosaic. Two good examples would be the 1996_1998_Knox_County and 1998_2001_Knox_County Image services that have 4 different years in each single mosaic (please see attached PDF’s).
KGIS's database administrator Chris Halcomb plans to discuss the Building, Trans Line, Trans Area, and Structure Area’s Additions and Deletions feature classes as well as the new Tree Canopy raster and Tree Canopy polygon feature classes.
