Both the USGS ArcGIS and USDA.gov servers and a couple of AFPO sources seemed to have dried up simultaneously. Doe anyone know why? Is it going to be restored or scrapped? Is It is available elsewhere? <BR>
<BR>
I was using the USGS server at <a href="http://isse.cr.usgs.gov/arcgis/services/Combined/USGS_EDC_Ortho_NAIP/MapServer/WMSServer">http://isse.cr.usgs.gov/arcgis/services/Combined/USGS_EDC_Ortho_NAIP/MapServer/WMSServer</a>? but it's now broadcasting a runtime error instead of images. I hope it's not gone for good because it is a great source for free aerial imagery. So if anyone knows what's happened or what's unfolding here I'd like to find out. With the GeoCommunicator site announcing its shut-down soon I'm getting concerned that something bigger might be happening to US govt. spatial data resources.<BR>
