Evaluating ArcGIS Online Javascript Mapping Solution

SeanFuhrmann — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 20:49:58 GMT

I am evaluating ArcGIS Online Javascript as a potential mapping solution. One of our main requirements is that our maps do not have any roads or terrains. Is there a basemap (or a way to turn off the "road" layer as with Google Maps?)

Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sean

Hi Sean,

See the Bing Maps "aerial" style, as in the example at http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/javascript/arcgis/demos/ve/ve_layer.html - does that solve the requirement?

See > Widgets > Basemap on the LH panel of http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/javascript/arcgis/help/jssamples_start.htm for information on other basemaps available out-of-the-box.

Ideally we would like a basemap that is essentially country\state borders and water. No topography, no roads, etc.

Does this exist at all?
