ArcGIS Living Atlas provides foundational elevation layers that all ArcGIS users consume in their maps, scenes, and applications. Terrain3D provides a default global elevation surface in scenes whether you are using ArcGIS Pro or ArcGIS Online Scene Viewer. Similarly, World Hillshade provides a default relief background in various basemaps (such as Topographic, Terrain with Labels) that are available across the ArcGIS system. These layers are compiled using the best available datasets from open data sources, Esri Community Maps contributors, and commercial data providers and have just been improved by integrating Maxar Intelligence’s Precision3D data, which is the most accurate 3D representation of Earth available on the commercial market.   For more information, see Maxar's Precision3D available in Esri's World Elevation 3D and Hillshade layers by @RajinderNagi.

A better understanding of WUI areas can help identify vulnerability of structures and people to wildfire, understand habitat loss and fragmentation, and help minimize the spread of zoonotic diseases. The new Global Wildland-Urban Interface layer is the first of its kind in Living Atlas to document the WUI on a global scale and will serve as a companion to the other wildfire related content in Living Atlas. It is one more tool in your toolbox to help prepare for and assess the potential risks from wildfires.   Firefighting professionals, emergency services organizations, and regional and local land developers will all find unique ways to incorporate this new data service into their daily workflows.

ArcGIS Living Atlas provides foundational elevation layers that all ArcGIS users consume in their maps, scenes, and applications. We are excited to share that the Terrain 3D, TopoBathy 3D, World Hillshade and World Hillshade (Dark) layers are now enhanced with bare earth elevation data from Maxar’s Precision3D (P3D) for parts of the globe. The Precision3D Digital Terrain Models (DTM’s) are 50 cm resolution that are derived from Maxar’s extensive archive of high-resolution satellite imagery using stereo photogrammetry techniques where vegetation and structures were removed from data using automated methods.   For more information, see Maxar's Precision3D available in Esri's World Elevation 3D and Hillshade Layers by @RajinderNagi.

While Living Atlas layers often change, the Living Atlas layers you find in Enterprise are tied to a particular ArcGIS Enterprise version. Starting at ArcGIS Enterprise 11.3, administrators will have the ability to refresh the Living Atlas content in their organization when Esri provides updated Living Atlas items. As soon as a new Living Atlas package is made available, organization administrators can initiate a Living Atlas content update. This will allow organization members access to a fresh set of Living Atlas content outside of doing an upgrade of your ArcGIS Enterprise deployment. For more information, see Living Atlas in ArcGIS Enterprise 11.3: A new way to get fresh content. Visit the ArcGIS Living Atlas home page to learn about what's new and how to use content.
