Each image can have its own color scale, but the resulting image will be a mosaic of the individual images. The legend is therefore that of the combined image. If you want each image to have its own layer/legend then the mosaic dataset may not be optimum.

If not too many then you could just use a webmap with a list of image services each with its own legend. If you create a custom app then there are options that can be developed.</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 22 Aug 2019 01:08:27 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-image-server-questions/when-to-use-mosaic-dataset/m-p/188998#M295 PeterBecker 2019-08-22T01:08:27Z
