I'm using ArcGIS Server 9.3 with an Oracle 10.2g database. I've created an MXD which contains my feature class and I've configured it to show one of the attributes as a label - both the feature class and the label are set to be visible at all scales. In ArcMap, the labels only show at a scale of 1:10,000,000 - as soon as I zoom in they ...
I have a large dataset of x,y coordinates in "NAD 1983 StatePlane Michigan South FIPS 2113 Feet" (aka ESRI 102690). I'd like to convert them to lat-lng points. In theory, this is something proj is built to handle, but the documentation hasn't given me a clue -- it seems to describe much more complicated cases. I've tried using a python...

(If there's a general way of finding a button/comm...

I'm about to develop a web mapping application with ESRI Products like ArcGIS Server and Image Server. I can't find a good comparison between the Java Web ADF and the Javascript Framework.
