What is the Indiana Spatial Data Service?

The Indiana Spatial Data Service (ISDS) is an enterprise geographic information system (GIS) designed to provide online access to aerial photos, topographic maps, and historic imagery of Indiana. The system uses an Oracle database and server-based GIS software (ArcSDE and ArcGIS Server) to output maps and data to a variety of GIS software and web browsing clients. The ISDS is hosted by UITS at Indiana University and is an application component of the Research Database Complex (RDC).

Data access methods

You can view maps and aerial photos from the ISDS in the following ways:
