Image Visit is a configurable app template that allows users to quickly review the attributes of a predetermined sequence of locations in imagery. The app optimizes workflows by loading the next image while the user is still viewing the current image, reducing the delay caused by waiting for the next image to be returned from the server.Image Visit users can do the following:Navigate through a predetermined sequence of locations two ways: use features in a 'Visit' layer (an editable hosted feature layer), or use a web map's bookmarks.Use an optional 'Notes' layer (a second editable hosted feature layer) to add or edit features associated with the Visit locations.If the app uses a Visit layer for navigation, users can edit an optional 'Status' field to set the status of each Visit location as it's processed ('Complete' or 'Incomplete,'' for example).View metadata about the Imagery, Visit, and Notes layers in a dialog window (which displays information based on each layer's web map popup settings).Annotate imagery using editable feature layersPerform image measurement on imagery layers that have mensuration capabilitiesExport an imagery layer to the user's local machine, or as layer in the user’s ArcGIS accountUse CasesAn insurance company checking properties. An insurance company has a set of properties to review after an event like a hurricane. The app would drive the user to each property, and allow the operator to record attributes (the extent of damage, for example). Image analysts checking control points. Organizations that collect aerial photography often have a collection of marked or identifiable control points that they use to check their photographs. The app would drive the user to each of the known points, at a suitable scale, then allow the user to validate the location of the control point in the image. Checking automatically labeled features. In cases where AI is used for object identification, the app would drive the user to identified features to review/correct the classification.

World Imagery provides one meter or better satellite and aerial imagery in many parts of the world and lower resolution satellite imagery worldwide. The map includes 15-meter TerraColor imagery at small and mid-scales (~1:591M down to ~1:288k) for the world. The map features Maxar imagery at 0.3-meter resolution for select metropolitan areas around the world, 0.5-meter resolution across the United States and parts of Western Europe, and 0.6-meter resolution imagery across the rest of the world. In addition to commercial sources, the World Imagery map features high-resolution aerial photography contributed by the GIS User Community. This imagery ranges from 0.3-meter to 0.03-meter resolution, down to ~1:280 in select communities. You can contribute your imagery to this map and have it served by Esri via the Community Maps Program.Updates and CoverageYou can use the World Imagery Updates app to learn more about recent updates and map coverage.UseYou can add this layer to the ArcGIS Online Map Viewer, ArcGIS Desktop, or ArcGIS Pro. To view this layer with a useful reference overlay, open the Imagery Hybrid (WGS84) web map.FeedbackHave you ever seen a problem in the Esri World Imagery Map that you wanted to report? You can use the Imagery Map Feedback web map to provide comments on issues. The feedback will be reviewed by the ArcGIS Online team and considered for one of our updates.Precise Tile RegistrationThe World Imagery map uses the improved tiling scheme “WGS84 Geographic, Version 2” to ensure proper tile positioning at higher resolutions (neighborhood level and beyond). The new tiling scheme is much more precise than tiling schemes of the legacy basemaps Esri released years ago. We recommend that you start using this new basemap for any new web maps in WGS84 that you plan to author. Due to the number of differences between the old and new tiling schemes, some web clients will not be able to overlay tile layers in the old and new tiling schemes in one web map.

What can you do with this Feature Layer?Feature layers work throughout the ArcGIS system. Generally your work flow with feature layers will begin in ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Pro. Below are just a few of the things you can do with a feature service in Online and Pro.ArcGIS OnlineAdd this layer to a map in the map viewer. The layer is limited to scales of approximately 1:1,000,000 or larger but a vector tile layer created from the same data can be used at smaller scales to produce a webmap that displays across the full range of scales. The layer or a map containing it can be used in an application.Change the layer’s transparency and set its visibility rangeOpen the layer’s attribute table and make selections and apply filters. Selections made in the map or table are reflected in the other. Center on selection allows you to zoom to features selected in the map or table and show selected records allows you to view the selected records in the table.Change the layer’s style and filter the data. For example, you could set a filter for Gap Status Code = 3 to create a map of only the GAP Status 3 areas.Add labels and set their propertiesCustomize the pop-upArcGIS ProAdd this layer to a 2d or 3d map. The same scale limit as Online applies in ProUse as an input to geoprocessing. For example, copy features allows you to select then export portions of the data to a new feature class. Note that many features in the PAD-US database overlap. For example wilderness area designations overlap US Forest Service and other federal lands. Any analysis should take this into consideration. An imagery layer created from the same data set can be used for geoprocessing analysis with larger extents and eliminates some of the complications arising from overlapping polygons.Change the symbology and the attribute field used to symbolize the dataOpen table and make interactive selections with the mapModify the pop-upsApply Definition Queries to create sub-sets of the layerThis layer is part of the Living Atlas of the World that provides an easy way to explore the landscape layers and many other beautiful and authoritative maps on hundreds of topics.

Soil is the foundation of life on earth. More living things by weight live in the soil than upon it. It determines what crops we can grow, what structures we can build, what forests can take root.This layer contains the physical soil variable percent clay (clay).Within the subset of soil that is smaller than 2mm in size, also known as the fine earth portion, clay is defined as particles that are smaller than 0.002mm, making them only visible in an electron microscope. Clay soils contain low amounts of air, and water drains through them very slowly.This layer is a general, medium scale global predictive soil layer suitable for global mapping and decision support. In many places samples of soils do not exist so this map represents a prediction of what is most likely in that location. The predictions are made in six depth ranges by soilgrids.org, funded by ISRIC based in Wageningen, Netherlands.Each 250m pixel contains a value predicted for that area by soilgrids.org from best available data worldwide. Data for percent clay are provided at six depth ranges from the surface to 2 meters below the surface. Each variable and depth range may be accessed in the layer's multidimensional properties.Dataset SummaryPhenomenon Mapped: Proportion of clay particles (< 0.002 mm) in the fine earth fraction in g/100g (%)Cell Size: 250 metersPixel Type: 32 bit float, converted from online data that is 16 Bit Unsigned IntegerCoordinate System: Web Mercator Auxiliary Sphere, projected via nearest neighbor from goode's homolosine land (250m)Extent: World land area except AntarcticaVisible Scale: All scales are visibleNumber of Columns and Rows: 160300, 100498Source: Soilgrids.orgPublication Date: May 2020Data from the soilgrids.org mean predictions for clay were used to create this layer.

The resolution in web mercator projection is the same as the original projection, 250m. But keep in mind that the original dataset has been reprojected to make this web mercator version.This multidimensional soil collection serves the mean or expected value for each soil variable as calculated by soilgrids.org. For all other distributions of the soil variable, be sure to download the data directly from soilgrids.org. The data are available in VRT format and may be converted to other image formats within ArcGIS Pro.Accessing this layer's companion uncertainty layerBecause data quality varies worldwide, the uncertainty of the predicted value varies worldwide. A companion uncertainty layer exists for this layer which you can use to qualify the values you see in this map for analysis. Choose a variable and depth in the multidimensional settings of your map client to access the companion uncertainty layer.

Image Mask is a configurable app template for identifying areas of an image that have changed over time or that meet user-set thresholds for calculated spectral indexes. The template also includes tools for measurement, recording locations, and more.App users can zoom to bookmarked areas of interest (or search for their own), select any of the imagery layers from the associated web map to analyze, use a time slider or dropdown menu to select images, then choose between the Change Detection or Mask tools to produce results.Image Mask users can do the following:Zoom to bookmarked areas of interest (or bookmark their own)Select specific images from a layer to visualize (search by date or another attribute)Use the Change Detection tool to compare two images in a layer (see options, below)Use the Mask tool to highlight areas that meet a user-set threshold for common spectral indexes (NDVI, SAVI, a burn index, and a water index). For example, highlight all the areas in an image with NDVI values above 0.25 to find vegetation.Annotate imagery using editable feature layersPerform image measurement on imagery layers that have mensuration capabilitiesExport an imagery layer to the user's local machine, or as a layer in the user’s ArcGIS accountUse CasesA student investigating urban expansion over time using Esri’s Multispectral Landsat image serviceA farmer using NAIP imagery to examine changes in crop healthAn image analyst recording burn scar extents using satellite imageryAn aid worker identifying regions with extreme drought to focus assistanceChange detection methodsFor each imagery layer, give app users one or more of the following change detection options:Image Brightness (calculates the change in overall brightness)Vegetation Index (NDVI) (requires red and infrared bands)Soil-Adjusted Vegetation Index (SAVI) (requires red and infrared bands)Water Index (requires green and short-wave infrared bands)Burn Index (requires infrared and short-wave infrared bands)For each of the indexes, users also have a choice between three modes:Difference Image: calculates increases and decreases for the full extent Difference Mask: users can focus on significant change by setting the minimum increase or decrease to be masked—for example, a user could mask only areas where NDVI increased by at least 0.2Threshold Mask: The user sets a threshold and magnitude for what is masked as change. The app will only identify change that’s above the user-set lower threshold and bigger than the user-set minimum magnitude.Supported DevicesThis application is responsively designed to support use in browsers on desktops, mobile phones, and tablets.Data RequirementsCreating an app with this template requires a web map with at least one imagery layer.Get Started This application can be created in the following ways:Click the Create a Web App button on this pageShare a map and choose to Create a Web AppOn the Content page, click Create - App - From Template Click the Download button to access the source code.

Important Note: This item is in mature support as of December 2024. See blog for more information.This web map presents a vector basemap of OpenStreetMap (OSM) data hosted by Esri. It provides a reference layer featuring map labels, boundary lines, and roads and includes imagery. Created from the sunsetted Daylight map distribution, data updates supporting this layer are no longer available.OpenStreetMap is an open collaborative project to create a free editable map of the world. Volunteers gather location data using GPS, local knowledge, and other free sources of information and upload it. The resulting free map can be viewed and downloaded from the OpenStreetMap site: www.OpenStreetMap.org. Esri is a supporter of the OSM project. Precise Tile Registration: The web map uses the improved tiling scheme “WGS84 Geographic, Version 2” to ensure proper tile positioning at higher resolutions (neighborhood level and beyond). The new tiling scheme is much more precise than tiling schemes of the legacy basemaps Esri released years ago. We recommend that you start using this new basemap for any new web maps in WGS84 that you plan to author. Due to the number of differences between the old and new tiling schemes, some web clients will not be able to overlay tile layers in the old and new tiling schemes in one web map.

The app displays multiple different renderings as well as profiles of the data. In many areas the coverage is available from multiple dates and the app displays temporal profiles as well as computing the differences. The current datasets consisting of 2m DEMs, cover the Arctic from 60*N to the Pole and will gradually, and incrementally be replaced with better 2m versions as they are produced during 2018. The elevations are digital surface models photogrammetrically generated from stereo satellite imagery and have not been edited to create terrain heights. The current datasets are preliminary and are known to contain some errors and artifacts. As more control becomes available, the elevation values will be refined and adjusted. The original PGC datasets have been adjusted according to the PGC proposed correction parameters, to give WGS84 ellipsoidal heights, but available in this service also as orthometric heights computed using the EGM2008 geoid separation. Details on how the DEMs are generated and their use can be found in ArcticDEM datasets. The DEMs were created from DigitalGlobe, Inc., imagery and funded under National Science Foundation awards 1043681, 1559691, and 1542736.The app also provides access to the Arctic Landsat imagery that is updated daily and also served through ArcGIS Online.Quick access to server functions defined for the following elevation derivatives are provided:Hillshade – Hillshaded surface generated dynamically on elevation layer, with a solar azimuth of 315 degrees and solar altitude of 45 degreesMulti-Directional Hillshade – Multi-directional hillshaded surface generated dynamically on elevation layer, computing hillshade from 6 different directionsElevation Tinted Hillshade – Elevation tinted hillshade surface generated dynamically on elevation layerSlopeMap – A color visualization of Slope surface generated dynamically on elevation layer, where flat surfaces is gray, shallow slopes are yellow and steep slopes are orangeAspectMap - A color visualization of aspect generated dynamically on elevation layerContour – Dynamically generated contours with specified contour intervals and options for smoothing to create more cartographically pleasing contours.The Time tool enables access to a temporal time slider and temporal profile for a selected point. The Time tool is only accessible at larger zoom scales. The Identify tool enables access to elevation, slope and aspect values for the specified point as well as information on the source image and links to download the source data.

THIS LAYER IS HOSTED BY FEMA, not NAPSG Foundation. We are simply pointing to their layer with this ArcGIS Online item. The National Flood Hazard Layer (NFHL) dataset represents the current effective flood data for the country, where maps have been modernized. It is a compilation of effective Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) databases and Letters of Map Change (LOMCs). The NFHL is updated as studies go effective. For more information, visit FEMA's Map Service Center (MSC). You can view this information in a standalone viewer here: https://hazards-fema.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=8b0adb51996444d4879338b5529aa9cdREST URL: https://hazards.fema.gov/gis/nfhl/rest/services/public/NFHL/MapServerBase Map ConsiderationsThe default base map is from an ESRI service and conforms to FEMA's specification for horizontal accuracy. This base map is composed of the orthoimagery used when the Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs) were initially created combined with standard imagery products managed by ESRI. This map should be considered the best online resource to use for official National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) purposes when determining locations in relation to regulatory flood hazard information. If a different base map is used with the NFHL, the accuracy specification may not be met and the resulting map should be used for general reference only, and not official NFIP purposes.Further InformationFor more flood map data, tool, and viewing options, visit the FEMA NFHL page.Several fact sheets are available to help you learn more about FEMA’s NFHL utility: National Flood Hazard Layer (NFHL) GIS Services Users GuideNational Flood Hazard Layer (NFHL): New Products and Services for FEMA's Flood Hazard Map DataNFHL GIS Data: Perform Spatial Analyses and Make Custom Maps and Reports
