create your own custom basemap

hello esri friendship

i want to use my own satellite image as a basemap. I am not sure if I am doing this correctly. How can I destroy a grid model like the one you see in the picture after adding the data.
How can I set the coordinates of my scene to a certain range (like max-x, min-x, max-y , min-y).

Hi,

You can get "rid" of the grid by either:

- Defining the ground surface color (works in local AND global viewingMode): https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/api-reference/esri-Ground.html#surfaceColor and https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/api-reference/esri-Color.html

view.map.ground.surfaceColor = new Color("white");

- Use the clippingArea on the SceneView (in local viewingMode only): https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/api-reference/esri-views-SceneView.html#clippingArea

 

BaseLayers should in general consist of tile layers: https://developers.arcgis.com/javascript/latest/api-reference/esri-Basemap.html#baseLayers

 

Best,

Thomas
