World Countries Generalized represents generalized boundaries for the countries of the world as of August 2022. The generalized political boundaries improve draw performance and effectiveness at a global or continental level. This layer is best viewed out beyond a scale of 1:5,000,000.This layer's geography was developed by Esri and sourced from Garmin International, Inc., the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (The World Factbook), and the National Geographic Society for use as a world basemap. It is updated annually as country names or significant borders change.

This web map provides provides a customized world basemap that is uniquely symbolized. It is optimized to display special areas of interest (AOIs) that have been created and edited by Community Maps contributors. These special areas of interest include landscaping features such as grass, trees, and rock and sports amenities like tennis courts, football and baseball field lines, and more. This vector tile layer is built using the same data sources used for the World Topographic Map and other Esri basemaps. Alignment of boundaries is a presentation of the feature provided by our data vendors and does not imply endorsement by Esri or any governing authority.Use this MapThis map is designed to be used as a basemap for overlaying other layers of information or as a stand-alone reference map.

The Human Geography Dark Map (World Edition) web map provides a detailed world basemap with a dark monochromatic style and content adjusted to support human geography information. Where possible, the map content has been adjusted so that it observes WCAG contrast criteria.This basemap, included in the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World, uses 3 vector tile layers:Human Geography Dark Label, a label reference layer including cities and communities, countries, administrative units, and at larger scales street names.Human Geography Dark Detail, a detail reference layer including administrative boundaries, roads and highways, and larger bodies of water. This layer is designed to be used with a high degree of transparency so that the detail does not compete with your information. It is set at approximately 50% in this web map, but can be adjusted.Human Geography Dark Base, a simple basemap consisting of land areas in a very dark gray only.The vector tile layers in this web map are built using the same data sources used for other Esri Vector Basemaps.

Per the Federal Geospatial Data Committee (FGDC), this theme is defined as the "boundaries that delineate geographic areas for uses such as governance and the general provision of services (e.g., states, American Indian reservations, counties, cities, towns, etc.), administration and/or for a specific purpose (e.g., congressional districts, school districts, fire districts, Alaska Native Regional Corporations, etc.), and/or provision of statistical data (census tracts, census blocks, metropolitan and micropolitan statistical areas, etc.). Boundaries for these various types of geographic areas are either defined through a documented legal description or through criteria and guidelines. Other boundaries may include international limits, those of federal land ownership, the extent of administrative regions for various federal agencies, as well as the jurisdictional offshore limits of U.S. sovereignty. Boundaries associated solely with natural resources and/or cultural entities are excluded from this theme and are included in the appropriate subject themes."For other NGDA Content: Esri Federal Datasets

This web map provides a detailed vector tile basemap for the world featuring a dark background with glowing blue symbology inspired by the ArcGIS.com splash screen.The Nova map emulates this color scheme, with a grid pattern across the ocean and stripes or square stippled patterns for land use features visible at larger scales. The colors are reminiscent of science-fiction shows, where one is looking at a map of the world on a 'head's up' device or a map that would be projected from a transparent glass wall. Additional graphics in the oceans presents a futuristic user interface. The futuristic and less terrestrial feel theme continues with the geometric patterns, starburst city dot symbols, and cool color scheme. The fonts displayed are clean and squarish (san serif) with a futuristic, science-fiction, or high technology appearance.Use this MapThis map is designed to be used as a basemap for overlaying other layers of information or as a stand-alone reference map.

117 original plate boundaries from Esri Data and Maps (2007) edited to better match 10 years of earthquakes, land forms and bathymetry from Mapping Our World's WSI_Earth image from module 2. Esri Canada's education layer of plate boundaries and the Smithsonian's ascii file from the download section of the 'This Dynamic Planet' site plate boundaries were used to compare the resulting final plate boundaries for significant differences.

World Imagery provides one meter or better satellite and aerial imagery in many parts of the world and lower resolution satellite imagery worldwide.
