Overview

Scanned Maps Basemap

The Scanned Maps Basemap template uses custom tools to create and populate a mosaic dataset with National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) Compressed ARC Digitized Raster Graphics (CADRG)/Enhanced Compressed Raster Graphics (ECRG) data, which can then be published as a cached image service and used as a basemap for desktop, mobile, and web applications.

Each basemap is provided as an ArcMap document organized around the ArcGIS Online/Bing Maps/Google Maps tiling scheme. The data frame in each map document is reprojected to the Web Mercator Auxiliary Sphere Projection, but the source data is maintained in its local projection.
