The KGIS User Group meeting is scheduled for Aug. 25th at 2:00 p.m. This month's KGIS User Group will be an introductory discussion on our long-range planimetric/topographic mapping program, where we will visually show our current mapped features along with our future, purposed mapped features.

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 28^th, KGIS intends to begin restricting access to imagery stored in the database beginning December 9^th 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).
