The new technology for this functionality is called a Mosaic Dataset. https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdesktop.arcgis.com%2Fen%2Farcmap%2F10.3%2Fmanage-data%2Fraster-and-images%2Fwhat-is-a-mosaic-dataset.htm&data=02%7C01%7CNEARC-L%40listserv.uconn.edu%7C4d39a345f0b5464cbd1008d78c69aafb%7C17f1a87e2a254eaab9df9d439034b080%7C0%7C0%7C637132257776277992&sdata=DsNts1dsiAyUbQlHCwV5I8KkY%2Bgmn4%2BxKJBTeid9BmA%3D&reserved=0 I forget if 10.2 allows it as that version is no longer supported so I could not find the online documentation. Most states now have imagery services so that you don’t have to even download the imagery.

Been so long since I’ve had to do it I forgot how to do it and what it’s even called. You have state-wide rasters of aerials and you can create a dbf IV file that has the file names in one column and then X/Y Max/Min in four other columns. Then I can just drag that into my map and it displays without having to load 150 files/layers. How did I do this? I did it with Sids before. Want to do Jp2 files and/or TIFF. Am working in 10.2. Making a raster catalog in a file geodatabase makes a file bigger than the images combined. Any help would be appreciative as I have about 30 field forms to go.
