Documents on this page provide GIS users with access to GeoEye’s Image Catalog. The ArcMap™ documents (MXD), ArcMap™ layer files (LYR), and ArcGIS® Explorer files (NMF) present catalog data through web services and are thematically mapped and symbolized by cloud cover. The _2009 and _all shapefiles are generated daily; all other shapefiles are generated weekly. The Archive Holdings Graphics are updated quarterly and represent current archive holdings to the date of generation indicated on the map.
