The SAL Portal & Blog
New Resources!
It’s been a little quiet here on the blog of late, but lots has happened in and around SEES and SAL so we know you haven’t been left with nothing to do 😉
We had our new Science Teaching Facility opened by Australia’s Chief Scientist Professor Ian Chubb AC on Tuesday afternoon and have been busy getting our teaching spaces on the ground floor ready for use. Reports from those that have used the new labs indicate that all is going well.
We have also been busy in SAL, and have some new resources available from the Portal website for you to use:
- NSW LPI (Land & Property Information) have released several new LPI web services. We think the most exciting new service for SAL users is the repository of standard imagery covering NSW that can now be used directly in ArcMap.
If you want some tips on how to access this imagery from TOL, click here for the 7 simple steps available from the Portal. - We have also recently released:
- an online form for requesting satellite imagery,
- a guide for finding imagery using the USGS EarthExplorer Website, and
- an online form for requesting EarthExplorer Imagery that you would like us to acquire for your research work.
The final piece of news for this update is that users are reporting having difficulty accessing Basemaps in ArcMap when working in TOL. We are aware of the problem and working towards finding a solution. In the meantime, we have outlined the steps you can take to ensure you don’t have the problem in the first place on the Portal. To find out what they are, visit the “ArcMap, Internet Explorer and your Proxy Login Details” page and speak to / contact me if you have any questions.
Till next time… 🙂
