Well, I think ours is rather good <g>. TopoZone provides WMS services for complete USGS DOQQ and High-Resolution Urban Area orthoimagery (topo maps, too). All the imagery is uncompressed and is served at the full original resolution, in the full original color depth (black and white, true color, or color infrared). We serve the data in any popular projection, seamlessly across UTM zones, to a variety of clients.<BR>
<BR>
This is a production-level imagery service, and is not free. If you’re interested in more information, please contact me off-list. I am not aware of any other free WMS service (other than TerraServer, that is) that provides DOQQ imagery on a nationwide basis. There are some state-level services out there.<BR>
