To Add Images Using Data Connect

You can add a two-dimensional image to your map. For example, add an aerial photograph.

1. In Display Manager , click DataConnect To Data.
2. In the Data Connect window, select Add Raster Image or Surface Connection in the Data Connections By Provider list.
3. Under Connection Name, type a name for this connection.
4. Click the folder icon to browse to the folder containing multiple images, or click the image icon to specify a single image.
5. Click Connect.
6. In the Add Data To Map area, select the images to include.

   If this source contains only a single image, that image is selected automatically. If it contains multiple images, you can right-click any of them and select Select All or Select None.

7. For each image you select, make sure the Coordinate System is correct.
8. To combine all the images on one map layer, select Combine Into One Layer. This is useful for combining a series of images to create a single layer.
9. Click Add To Map.
10. If prompted, specify the location, scale, and rotation for each image.

    Some image files contain placement information and are placed automatically in your map. For images that do not contain placement information, you are prompted for the location, scale, and insertion point.
