We’re excited about the release of Express Server® 7 image serving software. You already know that Express Server is the fastest, most stable, and easiest way to distribute high-resolution raster imagery. Who doesn’t know that? But what you may not know is that besides running as a 32-bit application as it always has, Express Server also can be installed as a 64-bit application on 64-bit systems, which means you can take full advantage of increased memory for performance gains.

Express Server 7 is available now.

And that’s just one reason to look at the new version of Express Server. Here’s another: support for MG4™, the latest version of LizardTech’s MrSID® image format. Through the use of alpha bands, MrSID Generation 4 enables true transparency, which means Express Server 7 can deliver better looking mosaics.

Even more exciting, MG4 supports multi- and hyperspectral imagery, and Express Server 7 enables you to specify any three bands to serve out. You can create any number of band-mapped catalogs so that any image in a given catalog will be served with your desired band arrangement. You can also use the same image for any number of band groupings. This gives you unprecedented flexibility in serving imagery for your geospatial end users.

We hope you like Express Server 7 as much as we do. If you’re at the 2011 Esri User Conference this week, stop by and visit our team at Booth #1311. They’ll be happy to talk with you about image delivery or any other needs you have.
