Configuring Map Services

The Map Service settings vary according to the type of the selected Map Service provider. The following are the supported Map Service providers:

Map Service Provider	Description
ESRI ArcGIS Server	Esri's core, on-premise ArcGIS Server map provider. See Map Service Settings Fields for ESRI ArcGIS Server.
OGC Map Service	An Open Geospatial Consortion (OGC) Web Mapping Service (WMS) or Web Feature Service (WFS) published via AutoDesk Map Guide or other open-source map publishing server such as GeoServer. See Map Service Settings Fields for OGC Map Service .
ESRI ArcGIS Online	Esri's cloud-based ArcGIS Online map provider. The ArcGIS Online web map might contain tiled map services for map visualization and feature services for Accela data querying and integration. You can use ArcGIS Online Web Map to create mash-ups with dynamic map services published on Esri ArcGIS Server or with image services from ArcGIS Image Server. An ArcGIS Online map service is typically a mash-up of multiple services. For this reason: Only one ESRI ArcGIS Online map service is supported. An ArcGIS Online map service cannot be added if an ArcGIS Server map service has already been configured. See Map Service Settings Fields for ArcGIS Online Web Map.
ESRI Image Server	Esri ArcGIS Image Server. Agencies often manage individual images using raster datasets. It is the simplest way to store a raster, and generally the fastest for smaller applications. Accela GIS supports an image service that has been published using ArcCatalog or the ArcGIS for Server manager. Raster Datasets can have the following file formats: TIFF, GRID, Mrsid, JP2000, JPEG, NITF, CADRG, etc Geodatabses Note: The display performance of an ArcGIS Image Server on Accela GIS largely depends on your agency's network support for the size and usage of the image server. See Map Service Settings Fields for ESRI Image Server.

After configuring the Map Service Provider Settings, continue the Map Service configuration with the Map service layers.
