    How does it work?
    The imagery appears as a layer in the GIS software and can be used in the same manner as local imagery sets without the need to store Terabytes of data on the local machine. ImageLink utilises the Open GIS Consortium WMS protocol to provide imagery direct to your desktop software. A thin ImageLink client application is installed on the desktop to provide security and allow the user to track their usage. It is possible to assign a reference to each image delivery to allow job costing.
     
    Compatibility:
    ImageLink Desktop is compatible with software that accommodates the OGC WMS 1.1. ImageLink trials are available for download to confirm compatibility. The following products provide WMS connection services:

  • ESRI ArcGIS 8.3 (+ plug-in)
