Through the Community Program organizations contribute their local geographic content which is published and freely-hosted by Esri. Everything from basemap layers such as parks and trees, to imagery and stream gauge data can be contributed.
Latest Release
This month 18 communities have shared map layers in support of Esri’s expanding suite of high-performance basemaps and imagery services. Map layers include aerial photography, boundaries, buildings, owner parcels, parks, points of interest, trees, and similar large-scale features that enhance our products and information sets for the world to use.
Detailed large-scale basemap layers and high-resolution imagery shared to the Living Atlas are what sets ArcGIS Online Basemaps apart from other mapping APIs. The Story Maps below include examples of these map layers and stunning imagery from our latest release.
