I am attempting to use the esri steet map as my first map service.. thus setting my Map Control to a spatial Reference of 102100 (Web Mercator)

When I attempt to display an arcgis dynamic layer with a spatial reference of 26745. (NAD_1927_StatePlane_California_V_FIPS_0405) It appears the layer is off by approximately 100 yards.

Is the Map Service with the silverlight API support a datum transformation... and is there a way to specifiy a specific transformation?

Casey

I am drawing a select rectangle, which appears to be based on the base map... as it is selecting items approximately 100 yards to the west of the drawn location.

Yes, Silverlight supports datum transform using the projection geometry service, you can consult Silverlight API Reference link below for a detailed example of using projection with datum transform.

Right, but that is for graphics... that doesn't help me display my Nad27 map service on top of the esri base maps (webmercator from wgs84).... Right???
