If you’re an ArcIMS administrator, you’ve probably heard complaints from your users that raster layers are either not being activated until they’ve zoomed far in on their map or that their images have been disabled entirely. With Express Server, you can serve your raster image datasets faster than ever before while preserving visual quality because Express Server can integrate with an ESRI ArcIMS server to boost raster performance.

When a client requests a map from ArcIMS, the Express Server passes ArcIMS the required raster layer, which ArcIMS integrates with vector information and sends to the client. ArcIMS with Express Server delivers imagery up to 25 times faster than ArcIMS on its own! Now you can have raster data enabled at all zoom levels, not just when zoomed in.
