Adding data layers

ArcExplorer's key functionality is the viewing of spatial data. You can view data that is stored on your computer or published as an ArcIMS MapService, an ArcView Internet Map Server (IMS), or MapObjects Internet Map Server (IMS) service. An ArcIMS MapService allows the content of a map configuration file (AXL) to be published on the Internet by registering it to the ArcIMS Spatial Server and Web server.

Data from local sources, an ArcSDE server, or a MapService can be added to ArcExplorer.
