The image service definition group layer

The image service definition group layer organizes the layers of the image service definition in the ArcMap table of contents. By default, the name of the image service definition group layer is the same as the image service definition name. When you create a new image service definition using the New Image Service Wizard, the group layer is added to the table of contents and contains the Footprint, Boundary, and Preview layers. When you create a new image service definition using the New Service Definition dialog box, the group layer is added to the table of contents and contains only the Footprint layer. After building the image service definition, the Boundary and Preview layers are added.
