Create a raster layer from a raster image service.
Use case
Accessing a raster image from an online service can be useful for analyzing the most up-to-date data available for an area. For example, retrieving recent results of bathymetry surveys within a shipping channel monitored for its sediment build-up would allow planners to assess dredging needs.
How to use the sample
Simply launch the sample to see a raster from an image service being used on a map.
How it works
Create an AGSImageServiceRaster using the service's URL.
Create an AGSRasterLayer from the image service raster.
Add the raster layer the the map.
Relevant API
AGSmageServiceRaster
AGSRasterLayer
About the data
This sample uses a NOAA raster image service. The service computes a hillshade image from the depth (in meters) of U.S. coastal waters.
