About exporting image service data in GeoMedia

The data you receive as a client from an image service can be exported as a raster dataset and saved on your local system. You may need to save this data for use in analysis applications. You cannot export the raw data used to create the service; you can only export the data you receive as a client—that is, the processed raster data. You can save this data in TIFF, JPEG 2000, and JPEG file formats.
