Web Map Service (WMS) for the 2007 New Jersey Orthoimagery Available


This announcement just came from Andy Rowan, Director, NJ Office of GIS. I am publishing it with Andy's permission (thanks, Andy!).

Sponsored by ENTCHEV GIS Architects


Most notable is the fact that the New Jersey Office of GIS is publishing "an OGC-compliant map service that is compatible with a wide variety of desktop and web clients." Way to go.
"For any who haven't visited the NJGIN portal lately: NJ Office of GIS has published a WMS -- Web Map Service -- of the 2007 orthoimagery.  This is an OGC-compliant map service that is compatible with a wide variety of desktop and web clients.  Details are at njgin.nj.gov under the "Orthoimagery" link on the left.  Sub-layers are available for natural color and false-color IR.
(The WMS is also what provides the imagery preview that appears in the Information Warehouse download application.)
-Andy"
If above NJGIN link does not work, try this one.

    I am pretty sure that NASA World WInd would like to receive the imagery. They have just for a couple of months ago received orthoimagery of all towns and villages of Greenland... If published on Yahoo! Maps the imagery is easily available for Open Street Map users too.
