Mosaics are published as ArcGIS image serviceswhich circumvent the need to download or order data. GEO-IDS image services are different from standard web services as they provide access to the raw imagery data. This enhances user experiences by allowing for user driven dynamic area of interest image display enhancement, raw data querying through tools such as the ArcPro information tool, full geospatial analysis, and automation through scripting tools such as ArcPy.Image services are best accessed through the ArcGIS REST APIand REST endpoints (URL's). You can copy the OPS ArcGIS REST API link below into a web browser to gain access to a directory containing all OPS image services. Individual services can be added into ArcPro for display and analysis by using Add Data -> Add Data From Path and copying one of the image service ArcGIS REST endpoint below into the resultant text box. They can also be accessed by setting up an ArcGIS server connectionin ESRI software using the ArcGIS Image Server REST endpoint/URL. Services can also be accessed in open-source software. For example, in QGIS you can right click on the type of service you want to add in the browser pane (e.g., ArcGIS REST Server, WCS, WMS/WMTS) and copy and paste the appropriate URL below into the resultant popup window. All services are in Web Mercator projection.For more information on what functionality is available and how to work with the service, read the Ontario Web Raster Services User Guide.

This series of products from MODIS represents the only daily global composites available and is suitable for use at global and regional levels. This True Color band composition (Bands 1 4 3 | Red, Green, Blue) most accurately shows how we see the earth’s surface with our own eyes. It is a natural looking image that is useful for land surface, oceanic and atmospheric analysis. There are four True Color products in total. For each satellite (Aqua and Terra) there is a 250 meter corrected reflectance product and a 500 meter surface reflectance product. Although the resolution is coarser than other satellites, this allows for a global collection of imagery on a daily basis, which is made available in near real-time. In contrast, Landsat needs 16 days to collect a global composite. Besides the maximum resolution difference, the surface and corrected reflectance products also differ in the algorithm used for atmospheric correction.NASA Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS)This image layer provides access to a subset of the NASA Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS), which are a set of standard services to deliver global, full-resolution satellite imagery. The GIBS goal is to enable interactive exploration of NASA's Earth imagery for a broad range of users. The purpose of this image layer, and the other GIBS image services hosted by Esri, is to enable convenient access to this beautiful and useful satellite imagery for users of ArcGIS. The source data used by this image layer is a finished image; it is not recommended for quantitative analysis.Several full resolution, global imagery products are built and served by GIBS in near real-time (usually within 3.5 hours of observation). These products are built from NASA Earth Observing System satellites data courtesy of LANCE data providers and other sources. The MODIS instrument aboard Terra and Aqua satellites, the AIRS instrument aboard Aqua, and the OMI instrument aboard Aura are used as sources. Several of the MODIS global products are made available on this Esri hosted service.This image layer hosted by Esri provides direct access to one of the GIBS image products. The Esri servers do not store any of this data itself. Instead, for each received data request, multiple image tiles are retrieved from GIBS, which are then processed and assembled into the proper image for the response. This processing takes place on-the-fly, for each and every request. This ensures that any update to the GIBS data is immediately available in the Esri mosaic service.Note on Time: The image service supporting this map is time enabled, but time has been disabled on this image layer so that the most recent imagery displays by default. If you would like to view imagery over time, you can update the layer properties to enable time animation and configure time settings. The results can be saved in a web map to use later or share with others.

This map was last updated March 2014. World Imagery provides one meter or better satellite and aerial imagery in many parts of the world and lower resolution satellite imagery worldwide. The map includes NASA Blue Marble: Next Generation 500m resolution imagery at small scales (above 1:1,000,000), i-cubed 15m eSAT imagery at medium-to-large scales (down to 1:70,000) for the world, and USGS 15m Landsat imagery for Antarctica. The map features 0.3m resolution imagery in the continental United States and parts of Western Europe from DigitalGlobe. Additional DigitalGlobe sub-meter imagery is featured in many parts of the world, with concentrations in South America, Eastern Europe, India, Japan, the Middle East and Northern Africa, Southern Africa, Australia, and New Zealand. In other parts of the world, 1 meter resolution imagery is available from GeoEye IKONOS, Getmapping, AeroGRID, IGN Spain, and IGP Portugal. Additionally, imagery at different resolutions has been contributed by the GIS User Community.

This web map contains the same layers as the Imagery with Labels basemap that is available in the basemap gallery of ArcGIS.com's map viewer, ArcGIS Explorer Online, ArcGIS Explorer Desktop, and the mobile clients. The Imagery with Labels basemap contains the World Imagery map service with the Boundaries and Places map service drawn on top. When you use this basemap in a web map, any map services that you add into the map get sandwiched between the imagery and the labels drawn on top, so this is a good basemap you use if you want to see services that don't contain their own labels with imagery drawn behind them and reference labels drawn on top.This web map also includes the World Transportation map service. This service shows streets, roads and highways and their names. When you zoom in to the highest level of detail the lines disappear and you just see the street names and road numbers.Feedback: Have you ever seen a problem in the Esri World Imagery Map that you wanted to see fixed?

Date of Images:9/25 - PresentVisualization OverviewThis visualization represents a "false color" band combination (Red = DNB, Green = DNB, Blue = Inverted M15) of data collected by the VIIRS instrument on the joint NASA/NOAA Suomi-NPP satellite. The imagery is most useful for identifying nighttime lights from cities, fires, boats, and other phenomena. At its highest resolution, this visualization represents the underlying data scaled to a resolution of 500m per pixel at the equator.The algorithm to combine the VIIRS DNB and M15 bands into an RGB composite was originally designed by the Naval Research Lab and was subsequently incorporated into NASA research and applications efforts. As you will see, nighttime city lights appear in shades of yellow, while clouds appear in shades of blue to yellow/white as the illumination from the moon changes over the lunar month. Hence, this visualization is colloquially referred to as a "blue-yellow RGB."The following guidelines will aid in understanding this visualization.Interpretation of both the presence and relative brightness of the city lights will be affected by the lunar cycle. This composite offers a qualitative assessment of the light conditions and should not be used as the sole source of information concerning power outages. During bright moonlight conditions, moonlight reflected from cloud tops and the land surface may also provide a yellow hue to those features. Comparisons of cloud-free conditions before and after a period of significant change, such as new city growth, disasters, fires, or other factors, may exhibit a change in emitted light (yellows) from those features over time.Multi-Spectral BandsAt its highest resolution, this visualization represents the underlying data scaled from its native 750m per pixel resolution to 500m per pixel at the equator. The following table lists the VIIRS bands that are utilized to create this visualization. See here for a full description of all VIIRS bands.BandDescriptionWavelength (µm)Resolution (m)DNBVisible (reflective)0.5 - 0.9750DNBVisible (reflective)0.5 - 0.9750M15 (Inverted)Longwave IR10.26 - 11.26750Temporal CoverageBy default, this layer will display the imagery currently available for today’s date. This imagery is a "daily composite" that is assembled from hundreds of individual data files. When viewing imagery for “today,” you may notice that only a portion of the map has imagery. This is because the visualization is continually updated as the satellite collects more data. To view imagery over time, you can update the layer properties to enable time animation and configure time settings. Currently, this layer is available from present back to April 30th, 2021. In the coming months, this will be extended to the start of the mission (October 28th, 2011).Data AccessThis visualization is generated from hourly and daily Near-Real Time versions of the "VIIRS/NPP Daily Gridded Day Night Band 500m Linear Lat Lon Grid Night" (VNP46A1_NRT) data product distributed by the Land, Atmosphere Near real-time Capability for EOS (LANCE). A standard quality version of the data product (VNP46A1), which is distributed by the Level-1 and Atmosphere Archive & Distribution System Distributed Active Archive Center (LAADS DAAC), is also available within 1-2 days of acquisition. You may use the Earthdata Search client to search for near real-time and science quality data files and associated documentation and services. Additionally, you may use the Worldview Snapshots tool to download custom images in a GeoTIFF , JPEG, PNG, or KMZ format for offline use.NASA Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS), NASA Worldview, & NASA LANCEThis visualization is provided through the NASA Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS), which are a set of standard services to deliver global, full-resolution satellite imagery for hundreds of NASA Earth science datasets and science parameters. Through its services, and the NASA Worldview client, GIBS enables interactive exploration of NASA's Earth imagery for a broad range of users. The data and imagery are generated within 3 hours of acquisition through the NASA LANCE capability.Esri and NASA Collaborative ServicesThis visualization is made available through an ArcGIS image service hosted on Esri servers and facilitates access to a NASA GIBS service endpoint. For each image service request, the Esri server issues multiple requests to the GIBS service, processes and assembles the responses, and returns a proper mosaic image to the user. Processing occurs on-the-fly for each and every request to ensure that any update to the GIBS imagery is immediately available to the user. As such, availability of this visualization is dependent on both the Esri and the NASA GIBS services.

Our Co-design team is from the University of Texas, working on a Department of Energy-funded project focused on the Beaumont-Port Arthur area. As part of this project, we will be developing climate-resilient design solutions for areas of the region. More on www.caee.utexas.edu.We captured aerial photos in the Port Arthur Coastal Neighborhood Community and the Golf Course on Pleasure Island, Texas, in June 2024.Aerial photos taken were through DroneDeploy autonomous flight, and models were processed through the DroneDeploy engine as well. All aerial photos are in .JPG format and contained in zipped files for each area.The processed data package includes 3D models, geospatial data, mappings, and point clouds. Please be aware that DTM, Elevation toolbox, Point cloud, and Orthomosaic use EPSG: 6588. And 3D Model uses EPSG: 3857.For using these data:- The Adobe Suite gives you great software to open .Tif files.- You can use LASUtility (Windows), ESRI ArcGIS Pro (Windows), or Blaze3D (Windows, Linux) to open a LAS file and view the data it contains.- Open an .OBJ file with a large number of free and commercial applications. Some examples include Microsoft 3D Builder, Apple Preview, Blender, and Autodesk.- You may use ArcGIS, Merkaartor, Blender (with the Google Earth Importer plug-in), Global Mapper, and Marble to open .KML files.- The .tfw world file is a text file used to georeference the GeoTIFF raster images, like the orthomosaic and the DSM. You need suitable software like ArcView to open a .TFW file.This dataset provides researchers with sufficient geometric data and the status quo of the land surface at the locations mentioned above. This dataset could streamline researchers' decision-making processes and enhance the design as well.

description: USGS Imagery Only is a tile cache base map of orthoimagery in The National Map visible to the 1:18,000 scale. Orthoimagery data are typically high resolution images that combine the visual attributes of an aerial photograph with the spatial accuracy and reliability of a planimetric map. USGS digital orthoimage resolution may vary from 6 inches to 1 meter. In the former resolution, every pixel in an orthoimage covers a six inch square of the earth's surface, while in the latter resolution, one meter square is represented by each pixel. Blue Marble: Next Generation source is displayed at small to medium scales. However, the majority of the imagery service source is from the National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) for the conterminous United States. The data is 1-meter pixel resolution with "leaf-on". Collection of NAIP imagery is administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Farm Service Agency (FSA). In areas where NAIP data is not available, other imagery may be acquired through partnerships by the USGS. The National Map program is working on acquisition of high resolution orthoimagery (HRO) for Alaska and Hawaii. Most of the new Alaska imagery data will not be available in this service due to license restrictions. The National Map viewer allows free downloads of public domain, 1-meter resolution orthoimagery in JPEG 2000 (jp2) format for the conterminous United States, with many urban areas and other locations at 1-foot (or better) resolution also in JPEG 2000 (jp2) format. For scales below 1:18,000, use the dynamic USGS Imagery Only Large service, https://services.nationalmap.gov/arcgis/rest/services/USGSImageOnlyLarge/MapServer.; abstract: USGS Imagery Only is a tile cache base map of orthoimagery in The National Map visible to the 1:18,000 scale.

Visualization OverviewThis visualization represents a "true color" band combination (Red = 1, Green = 4, Blue = 3) of data collected by the MODIS instrument on the NASA Terra satellite. The imagery is most similar to how we see the Earth’s surface with our own eyes. It is a natural looking image that is useful at a global and regional scale. At its highest resolution, this visualization represents the underlying data scaled to a resolution of 250m per pixel at the equator.The MODIS Corrected Reflectance product provides natural-looking images by removing gross atmospheric effects such as Rayleigh scattering from the visible bands. By contrast, the MODIS Surface Reflectance product, which is also available in the Living Atlas, provides a more complete atmospheric correction algorithm that includes aerosol correction and is designed to derive land surface properties. In clear atmospheric conditions the Corrected Reflectance product is similar to the Surface Reflectance product, but they depart from each other in the presence of aerosols.Multi-Spectral BandsThe following table lists the MODIS bands that are utilized to create this visualization. See here for a full description of all MODIS bands.BandDescriptionWavelength (µm)Resolution (m)1Visible (Red)0.620 - 0.670 2503Visible (Blue)0.459 - 0.4795004Visible (Green)0.545 - 0.565500Temporal CoverageBy default, this layer will display the imagery currently available for today’s date. This imagery is a "daily composite" that is assembled from hundreds of individual data files. When viewing imagery for “today,” you may notice that only a portion of the map has imagery. This is because the visualization is continually updated as the satellite collects more data. To view imagery over time, you can update the layer properties to enable time animation and configure time settings. Currently, this layer is available from present back to the start of the mission (February 24th, 2000).NASA Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS), NASA Worldview, & NASA LANCEThis visualization is provided through the NASA Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS), which are a set of standard services to deliver global, full-resolution satellite imagery for hundreds of NASA Earth science datasets and science parameters. Through its services, and the NASA Worldview client, GIBS enables interactive exploration of NASA's Earth imagery for a broad range of users. The data and imagery are generated within 3 hours of acquisition through the NASA LANCE capability.Esri and NASA Collaborative ServicesThis visualization is made available through an ArcGIS image service hosted on Esri servers and facilitates access to a NASA GIBS service endpoint. For each image service request, the Esri server issues multiple requests to the GIBS service, processes and assembles the responses, and returns a proper mosaic image to the user. Processing occurs on-the-fly for each and every request to ensure that any update to the GIBS imagery is immediately available to the user. As such, availability of this visualization is dependent on both the Esri and the NASA GIBS services.

This series of products from MODIS represents the only daily global composites available and is suitable for use at global and regional levels. This True Color band composition (Bands 1 4 3 | Red, Green, Blue) most accurately shows how we see the earth’s surface with our own eyes. It is a natural looking image that is useful for land surface, oceanic and atmospheric analysis. This map shows the 250 meter corrected reflectance product from both satellites that carry a MODIS, Aqua and Terra. Although the resolution is coarser than other satellites, this allows for a global collection of imagery on a daily basis, which is made available in near real-time. In contrast, Landsat needs 16 days to collect a global composite. Besides the maximum resolution difference, the surface and corrected reflectance products also differ in the algorithm used for atmospheric correction.NASA Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS)This image layer provides access to a subset of the NASA Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS), which are a set of standard services to deliver global, full-resolution satellite imagery. The GIBS goal is to enable interactive exploration of NASA's Earth imagery for a broad range of users. The purpose of this image layer, and the other GIBS image services hosted by Esri, is to enable convenient access to this beautiful and useful satellite imagery for users of ArcGIS. The source data used by this image layer is a finished image; it is not recommended for quantitative analysis.Several full resolution, global imagery products are built and served by GIBS in near real-time (usually within 3.5 hours of observation). These products are built from NASA Earth Observing System satellites data courtesy of LANCE data providers and other sources. The MODIS instrument aboard Terra and Aqua satellites, the AIRS instrument aboard Aqua, and the OMI instrument aboard Aura are used as sources. Several of the MODIS global products are made available on this Esri hosted service.This image layer hosted by Esri provides direct access to one of the GIBS image products. The Esri servers do not store any of this data itself. Instead, for each received data request, multiple image tiles are retrieved from GIBS, which are then processed and assembled into the proper image for the response. This processing takes place on-the-fly, for each and every request. This ensures that any update to the GIBS data is immediately available in the Esri mosaic service.Note on Time: The image service supporting this map is time enabled, but time has been disabled on this image layer so that the most recent imagery displays by default. If you would like to view imagery over time, you can update the layer properties to enable time animation and configure time settings. The results can be saved in a web map to use later or share with others.
