What GIS data is provided with the Map Server?
The GLG Map Server comes with a few datasets, so that you can start using the map server right away. The following datasets are provided: • NASA’s Visible Earth image (tiled 8192×4096 image and a smaller fallback image) • The World Political Boundaries layer of the Digital Chart of the World (VMAP0) dataset • The US States layer of the US Census Tiger dataset • US Cities dataset These datasets may be used as a background or high-level overview, while more detailed datasets of particular areas of interest may be overlayed on top, becoming visible when the map is zoomed in to view these areas.
