A checklist

Feature Service

Map Image Service (cached tiles)

Pro's

  • Symbolization designed in ArcMap is preserved so not much to do in the client.
  • You will need to set up a separate group for each zoom level. This is incompatible with Feature Services so you need two MXD's to publish both Map and Feature Services.

Con's

  • Don't use Maplex. Since the tiles are built on the server it will do a terrible job at labels. You might want to use annotation instead of labels. (ick)
  • If you get the projection wrong, tiles will be unusable in a web map.
  • Bulky, lots of raster data.
  • When you zoom in you'll see the rasterization.


The service should be in Web Mercator (EPSG:3857) so that it's most compatible with other public map services (OSM, ESRI, Google, ...).

Sometimes this just happened but I don't know why. These days I put the source data into the ArcMap document, and then
