"Collaboration" between DMSP mosaics viewer and map server GIS

Mosaic viewer window displays the whole product and does not support zoom. The mapserver GIS window displays a region on the global map initially corresonding to the mosaic image. The map may be recentered,  moved or zoomed during the work with the applet. For easy comparison between the map and the mosaic product the objects (cursor crosshair or rectangular region) selected in one window are displayed in the other window for the same geographical location.

Details on the map server functions may be found here.
