[OpenLayers-Users] base layer for wms

[Arnd Wippermann]

The world image layer from ESRI comes with a min resolution not as good as
Google Satellite, but it's available as REST service and in arbitrary
projections and available at no cost, regardless of use.

see

rvices
 
And example with ESRI World Imagery

Betreff: [OpenLayers-Users] base layer for wms


I have been trying to find a good world map to display overlaying wms data
from various sources and haven't had much luck. I tried using OpenStreetMap
but not every layer supports the mercator projection. I have been using the
wms default given in the OL wms example but this one its not good at all
when you zoom in at a city level. Any tips on where to put my overlays on
would be greatly appreciated!
Best Regards,

Manuel Arredondo.
