Hello List,<br>
<div class="moz-forward-container">
<div class="moz-forward-container"> <br>
I recently finished adding a big bunch of USA-based government
ArcGIS server addresses to the list I curate. There are now
2,200+ addresses for ArcGIS servers from the federal level down
to the city level. Most of the recent updates were for counties
and cities. All links are tested by my code once/week and bad
links are fixed or flagged. An updated list is usually posted
every Wednesday morning.<br>
<br>
Open the list (PDF file):<br>

<br>
And in doing that work I realized there are several ways that
anyone can help improve this list. Of course if you know of any
additional ArcGIS server addresses (<font color="#ff0000"><b>not
portals!</b></font>) then I would enjoy adding those to the
list. But here are a few less obvious ways that anyone can
help.<br>
<br>
<b>1. County *or* city</b><br>
<br>
It is certainly possible that I mistakenly listed a server
address that mainly has county data under the ‘City’ heading for
that state - or vice versa. If you happen to spot such a
mistake, please let me know. My contact link is in the list.<br>
<br>
<b>2. County *and* city</b><br>
<br>
Some counties and cities have pooled their resources and one or
the other will operate a GIS server with data for both
jurisdictions. When that happens I would like to include a note
in the list linking those jurisdictions. To clarify, I would
like to identify servers with a significant (i.e. more than just
a few layers) amount of data for more than one jurisdiction.<br>
<br>
<b>3. USA Miscellaneous Servers</b><br>
<br>
On p.6 of the list is a section titled “USA Miscellaneous
Servers”. If you happen to know that any of those servers is
hosting data that is primarily for *one* state or county or
city, then please let me know and I will move that listing to a
more useful location.<br>
<br>
Finally, I am continuing to work on the <b><font
color="#ff0000">beta</font> version of GISsurfer v2.0</b>.
The goal of this beta version is to let anyone surf ArcGIS data
almost as easily as you surf the internet. No GIS savvy
required! For the curious among you the following link is for a
page with brief instructions and a link to the beta code. A new
feature in the beta version is the ability to make a link that
(1) starts GISsurfer and (2) automatically opens the sidebar and
displays the table of contents for an ArcGIS server.<br>
