Hi,

Anyone know what happened to the maps services that were hosted under this link?

https://igems.doi.gov/arcgis/rest/services/igems_haz/MapServer

They used to work till last week? We use it to display hurricanes and weather data from it. It was the best service available.

Thanks Jeff. I wished, I would have been able to attend the UC. Never been to one before. If you or someone you know is attending UC, please pass this question to them. Thanks again.

I was at the UC, and they did not have a Booth. Upon asking the Information Desk, they were also perplexed too.

I'm having my other contacts looking into the matter.

The feds have been perplexing as of late. The USGS had a pretty strong presence in this year's map gallery but I didn't pay attention to their booth presence. I will say that the Forest Service did not have a booth presence last year but did this year. Maybe they're alternating years now?...

A lot of the same data (and more) is found here, and they have links to most of it so you can grab the REST services. nowCOAST™: NOAA's Web Mapping Portal to Real-Time Coastal Observations, Forecasts, and Warnings

They did indeed retire the public facing IGEMS on June 30, and have no plans on replacing it currently. It was displaying data that is readily available elsewhere and so was not worth the cost of the upkeep. Let me know if you need any other resources of where to find information like they presented!
