Reminder: Bing Maps Use in ArcGIS Has Changed
Have You Tried the ArcGIS Online World Imagery Map? It’s a Great Alternative! How handy??? |

This is a reminder that complimentary use of Microsoft's Bing
Maps with ArcGIS software will be phased out by December 31, 2013.
To continue using Bing Maps with ArcGIS after December 31, you
will need to obtain your own Bing Maps key directly from Microsoft and then
input the key into your ArcGIS products. We recommend that you start this
process right away to avoid any service disruption.
How This Change Will Affect Use of Bing
Maps with ArcGIS
Once you obtain a key from Microsoft, you will be able to use Bing Maps in your web and mobile applications as well as on ArcGIS for Server, ArcGIS web APIs, all ArcGIS mobile software development kits (SDK), and ArcGIS Online.
ArcGIS for Desktop will be affected in different ways,

Have You Tried the ArcGIS Online World
Imagery Map? It’s a Great Alternative!
The complimentary World Imagery Map is updated frequently and provides 1-meter scale or better satellite imagery for many parts of the world. It includes recent and detailed aerial imagery from DigitalGlobe at 30 cm for the continental United States down to 1:1,000 scale, 60 cm imagery for large parts of Western Europe down to 1:2,000 scale, and 1 m imagery for other areas in the world.
Try Other Free ArcGIS Online Basemaps
In addition to the World Imagery Map, ArcGIS Online gives you access to a number of different basemaps that you can use in your projects. The World Street Map, World Topographic Map, Light Gray Canvas Map, and National Geographic World Map provide a range of cartographic options to meet your needs.
If you have any questions, please contact your local Esri
office.
