  3. Set a projection for the project using the Display Projections dialog.
  4. Use the Data Service Options dialog to select a web service or catalog.
  5. Save the data file and import the data into SMS.
2. Create or import a scatter set, 2D grid, quadtree, or mesh geometry.
2. Set texture mapping display options.
  1. Open the Display Options and go to the General tab.
  2. In the Texture Mapping section, change the Display Location to match the geometry.
