Abstract Bing Maps can provide plentiful and free data resources. The convenient utilization of these resources is
a problem of wide concern. In many applications, it would cost much money and plentiful human resources to develop
software systems for managing the data, and the systems based on browser fail to support frequent user interaction
and data inter-operation. Web service provides an effective way to inter-operate geographical information through
platform and programming language. Based on analyzing the coding theory of Bing Maps tiles data and the structure
of the URL, this paper has introduced a method for approaching Bing Maps tiles data, and then implemented Web Map
Service (WMS) by using these data so that it can be loaded by any client which supports WMS. This method has
achieved the goal of convenient acquirement of map data and image data with less cost.
