Sounds like the same interface that Virginia uses for their VBMP<br>
orthoimagery. Just so others know, if the projection offered by the<br>
ArcGIS server isn't OSM-style (EPSG:3857, EPSG:900913, etc), and the<br>
Export Map functionality isn't backed by raw imagery (i.e. it's just<br>
tiled at the given projection, such as one of the state plane<br>
systems), then it's likely Ian's method won't work. Unfortunately this<br>
is the case with Virginia's server.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>The tiles are working for the imagery in question here. I don't think we ever figured out what was going on with the Virginia imagery that the export functionality wasn't working.</div>
