TwitterThis web map features a vector basemap of OpenStreetMap (OSM) data created and hosted by Esri. Esri produced this vector tile basemap in ArcGIS Pro from a live replica of OSM data, hosted by Esri, and rendered using a creative cartographic style emulating a blueprint technical drawing. The vector tiles are updated every few weeks with the latest OSM data. This vector basemap is freely available for any user or developer to build into their web map or web mapping apps.OpenStreetMap (OSM) 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 and is excited to make this new vector basemap available available to the OSM, GIS, and Developer communities.

TwitterThe Charted Territory Map (World Edition) web map provides a customized world basemap uniquely symbolized. It takes its inspiration from a printed atlas plate and pull-down scholastic classroom maps. The map emphasizes the geographic and political features in the design. The use of country level polygons are preassigned with eight different colors. It also includes the global graticule features as well as landform labels of physical features and hillshade. This basemap, included in the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World, uses the Charted Territory vector tile layer and World Hillshade. The vector tile layer in this web map is built using the same data sources used for other Esri Vector Basemaps. For details on data sources contributed by the GIS community, view the map of Community Maps Basemap Contributors. Esri Vector Basemaps are updated monthly.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. You can add layers to this web map and save as your own map. If you like, you can add this web map to a custom basemap gallery for others in your organization to use in creating web maps. If you would like to add this map as a layer in other maps you are creating, you may use the layers referenced in this map.

TwitterThis map was designed with the Vizzuality team for use in the Half-Earth Project globe. The saturated palette and rich landcover tones are meant to engage an audience and to provide the sense that the earth is a charming and beautiful place worthy of thoughtful stewardship. As you zoom in, the saturated basemap is slowly replaced by Esri's World Imagery basemap tiles for a seamless transition from small to large scale.Find more information about this basemap, and its contributing data, here: https://www.esri.com/arcgis-blog/products/arcgis-pro/mapping/creating-the-half-earth-vibrant-basemap/ Learn more about the Half-Earth Project here and explore highlighted areas of biodiversity. Happy Mapping! John

TwitterThis prototype web map provides a detailed vector basemap with a monochromatic style and content adjusted to support physical geography information. It is designed to work with any of the world hillshade layers available in the ArcGIS Living Atlas.The web map consists of 3 vector tile layers:A reference layer including administrative boundaries, and labels for cities and communities, countries, administrative units, and at larger scales, streets.A detail reference layer including transportation, water bodies, and at larger scales, buildings. 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 60% in this web map, but can be adjusted.A simple base layer consisting of land areas in white, to act as a mask in certain circumstances.The layers in this map provide unique capabilities for customization, high-resolution display, and offline use in mobile devices: They are built using the same data sources used for the Light Gray Canvas and other Esri basemaps. Use the Vector Tile Style Editor to make changes to your own copies.Note: In the current configuration, this basemap is designed for use with Map Viewer.This map was designed and created by Andrew Skinner.

TwitterThis web map contains the same layers as the Imagery with Labels basemap that is available in the basemap gallery of ArcGIS.com's map viewer, ArcGIS Explorer Online, ArcGIS Explorer Desktop, and the mobile clients. The Imagery with Labels basemap contains the World Imagery map service with the Boundaries and Places map service drawn on top. When you use this basemap in a web map, any map services that you add into the map get sandwiched between the imagery and the labels drawn on top, so this is a good basemap you use if you want to see services that don't contain their own labels with imagery drawn behind them and reference labels drawn on top.This web map also includes the World Transportation map service. This service shows streets, roads and highways and their names. When you zoom in to the highest level of detail the lines disappear and you just see the street names and road numbers.Feedback: Have you ever seen a problem in the Esri World Imagery Map that you wanted to see fixed?

TwitterBasemaps provide background geographical context for the content you want to display on a map. While there a lot of different basemaps to choose from in ArcGIS Online, each with its own advantage, the blending tool allows user to enhance these. Instead of setting your layer's transparency, try the different blend modes in the new Map Viewer to give you additional control of the map's appearance by blending layers with the basemaps.
