Terraserver digital orthoquad imagery tutorial
Kudos to Free Geography Tools for providing an excellent tutorial on downloading orthos for free using TerraServer - see HERE.. can you imagine that people actually still buy this kind of data, as well as older, non-most-recent data from the old-school online data providers (like the data depot yadayada)... bizzare! Great tutorial guys

ArcGIS Online offers basemap foundations that can be easily used in ArcGIS Desktop applications including ArcGIS Explorer. ArcGIS Desktop users can connect to ArcGIS Online and access a wide variety of content at no cost including imagery, streets, shaded relief, and topographic maps. ArcGIS Online makes available seamless, high-resolution imagery at approximately 1-meter resolution for the contiguous United States and 2.5- to 15-meter resolution for the world. Visit www.esri.com/arcgisonline to learn more and register. Introduction to ArcGIS Online will air on ESRI's Training and Education Web site at www.esri.com/training on July 19 at 9:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m., and 3:00 p.m. Pacific daylight time.
