    <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Hi,&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Looking at the service description it says:&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN style="font-style:italic;"&gt;[INDENT]Service Description: This map is in Extended Support and is no longer updated. Esri recommends that you use USA_Topo_Maps instead (ArcGIS 9.3 or higher is required).[/INDENT]&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt; &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;So I think the simple answer is that this map will not be updated. The recommendation is to use the new USA topo map: &lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;A href="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/USA_Topo_Maps/MapServer"&gt;http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/USA_Topo_Maps/MapServer&lt;/A&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;I don't know the frequency of updates, but see that it has been updated in 2011.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Mike Rudden&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Esri&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <title>Map Updates?</title>
      <link>https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-explorer-online-questions/map-updates/m-p/34020#M51</link>
      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;How often are maps updated? Specifically, the one listed below:&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;A href="http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/NGS_Topo_US_2D/MapServer"&gt;http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/NGS_Topo_US_2D/MapServer&lt;/A&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;When zoomed in over the water, this particular map shows charting information. Since this information is dynamic, I'm interested to find out how often is it updated? Is there a particular schedule that's followed for updates of this nature?&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Thanks,&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;John&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
