Hello,
I am having difficulty getting Bing Maps to show up in my Basemap Gallery Widget.
I have created a Basemap Gallery WGS1984 group. Our own basemap aerial for this group has been converted to WGS1984 and shows up fine with all the ESRI content added as well. I have added all three Bing Map offerings to this same group and they appear just fine as choices within the confines of the Map Viewer.
However, they are not listed as offerings to add to my Basemap Gallery widget. I've tried removing the widget and re-adding it but there is no change in the offerings. They simply do not show as listed within this group even though they are there and selectable within the Map Viewer interface.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you.
Jeff,
That is likely an issue. My aerials that I have working with esri basemaps and BING are tiled MapServices that have the same tiling scheme as esri basemaps.
Thank you, Robert. I will give it a shot.
I should have been a little more precise concerning the coordinate system. I actually projected my aerials to WGS 1984 Web Mercator (Auxiliary Sphere) WKID: 3857 Authority: EPSG. I read this is the latest WKID that supersedes the WKID of 102100 so I assumed it would work. Is that not correct?
OK the big issue I see is that you are saying that your basemaps are in WGS1984 (wkid 4326) will Bing Maps are in WebMercator (WKID 1021000) so they will not work with your basemaps if they are 4326.
Hi Robert,
Yes. I did see that posting and it is a great resource for your initial setup, which I have completed. Unfortunately, my problem is localized to the Basemap Gallery widget within an application that I am creating. I even went as far as creating a group that only contains my Bing Maps. Taking this direction I was at least able to see the group after selecting but nothing is listed.
Hopefully my attachments will help illustrate.
