ArcGIS Online Moving to Google/Bing Tiling Scheme

November 23rd, 2009 Comments off

In an interesting move, ESRI is changing the tiling scheme of ArcGIS Online services to match the tiling scheme used by Google Maps and Bing Maps.

By the end of the year ArcGIS Online services are planned to be published in the Mercator projection with 256 x 256 pixel tiles, simplifying the process of creating mashups with Google Maps and Bing Maps.
