Edit over Bing Maps or any web tileset or WMS layer
In the TNTgis software you can supplement your local image, map, and elevation data with the rich resource of web-based geospatial data. You can view your data from any locale over global reference image and map data from Bing Maps, or use one of the many on-line orthoimage tilesets hosted by MicroImages. Use any of these web resources as a reference as you create, edit, or georeference your local data. You can use web terrain tilesets hosted by MicroImages as terrain layers to view any of your local images (or MicroImages' on-line web tilesets) in stereo. You can also view layers published by any Web Map Service (WMS) or ArcIMS, with integrated catalog searching to allow you to select layers by text, geographic area, or address.
