AGRC hosts a collection of image services that may or may not be available from the Discover server. These services do not require a login. They are live services to a raster mosaic and will draw slower than the Discover server. You have the ability to fine tune the settings on the image services for instance, Computing a Histogram. If you do not need advanced image processing capabilities and want a faster experience, look for the service on the Discover server.

Warning

The legacy version of Image Server is not compatible with 10.3.

Remove the layers that access the deprecated Image Server and remove the custom Add Image Service Connection button from projects prior to installing 10.3.
