Pre-sybolized Data Layers - where are they now?

[MichaelAugust]

With the release of 2024 StreetMap Premium the mxd that used to contain pre-stylized StreetMap Premium data layers has been deprecated and that makes sense, but I am not seeing an .aprx or any .lyr files anywhere to replace it. I understand that ArcMap is going away, but now we can't even re-point to the new 2024 data from those old mxd layers because of all the field/attribute name changes breaking the label expressions, symbolization, etc.

Is there a new way to get the 2024.2 StreetMap Premium data into something like the old .mxd? Where the data was all symbolized into zoom levels and labeling was cartographically pleasant?

On the webpage for StreetMap Premium I see the following quote: "Make use of high-quality, consistent, ready-to-use maps and prerendered, presymbolized data layers." - where are these presybolized data layers exactly?

We have the same issue at the moment. The new ArcGIS Pro version are not useful for us at the moment.

For the mapping component, the StreetMap Premium product has transitioned from the previous method of multi-scale mapping with a file geodatabase and an ArcMap .mxd.

Users can access the new mapping component through the pre-symbolized vector tile package found in the mobile map package format that offers better performance when panning and zooming in/out, but also a richer set of data layers from different data vendors and community sources, which was not possible to provide in a file geodatabase. Editing of the Navigation style vector tile package can be accomplished with the vector tile style editor https://vtse.arcgis.com/documentation/.

Users who wish to continue with the previous method of creating custom maps can still access layers from the Mapping.gdb and customize their symbolization referring to the data dictionary contained in the StreetMap Premium help pdf. Additional information was provided in the spreadsheet ArcGIS StreetMap Premium 2023 to 2024 Release Draft Crosswalk.xlsx to transition from feature classes and attribute names from the 2023 and earlier legacy SMP datasets to 2024 and later datasets.
