A hosted imagery layer is a hosted layer (item) in a portal that is used to manage the properties and settings of a image service. It is accessible through an item page. A hosted imagery layer is created using ArcGIS portal or ArcGIS Pro to import existing raster data in formats such as GeoTIFF, IMG, DTED, and SID. Client applications can use a hosted imagery layer (item) to display a dynamically created image from an image service. It is also used as input for raster analysis operations.
