The ArcGIS Content Team recently completed updates to the World Topographic Map. The data for the World Topographic Map is provided by the GIS community. This map is designed to be used as a basemap by GIS professionals and as a reference map by anyone. Thanks to our users and partners who are supporting Community Basemaps and helping build The Living Atlas of the World. Topographic Map Updates and Useful Maps and Applications Our newest contributor in this release is Falls Church, VA (Topo 1:9k to 1:1k). Just what we like to see, an ArcGIS Online Homepage! Loaded up with Map Gallery and Open Data sites that leverage not only the Topographic Basemap, but also the Streets, Light Gray Canvas and Imagery Basemaps. The Falls Church, VA Map Gallery includes a variety of web maps and apps that include topics ranging from Flood Zones, Snow Removal and this Capital Improvements app identifying the capital needs of the community and indicates how these needs will be funded over the 5-year period. There are several updates in this release including cities and counties in the United States, Canada, Hong Kong and Europe. Des Moines, IA (Topo 1:9k to 1:1k) Fairfax County, VA (Topo 1:9k to 1:1k) Kane County, IL (Topo 1:9k to 1:1k) Lewis and Clark County, MT (Topo 1:9k to 1:1k) Loudoun County, VA (Topo 1:9k to 1:1k) St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada (Topo 1:9k to 1:1k) In addition to St. John’s, there have been numerous recent updates and new contributors in Canada.

Hundreds of organizations in Esri’s user community are helping build the Living Atlas of the World by contributing their authoritative content. The Living Atlas of the World is composed of a variety of collections, all of which are supported by the ArcGIS Content Team. This content is built into the ArcGIS Platform as part of the user experience and is ready for your immediate use! To view this comprehensive set of maps, apps, and tools just visit the Living Atlas of the World Web App. Live maps, intelligent layers, and maps for analysis are all part of the Living Atlas of the World. Many of these contributions are being used in Esri’s Online Basemaps, like the popular flagship World Topographic Map. Did you know? …that there are several other “content communities” in the Living Atlas of the World that can be contributed to? When an organization shares data with the Living Atlas of the World, the question that must first be addressed is “What map layers does my organization manage that would help support the various content communities of the atlas”? The answer will vary from organization to organization, but it’s important to be aware of the collections that our user community can support. The list above serves as a guideline and can help organizations identify the areas where .they can contribute. Many of the organizations and agencies that contribute reference features to the basemaps more than likely have data that can be leveraged by other communities. The term “Community Maps” covers more than just basemap reference layers. All of the varying communities should be considered for contribution. To better understand these communities, how they are defined, and if your organization’s content is an appropriate fit, have a look at the descriptions below. Imagery Detailed imagery of the world, which reveals both the present state of the planet and change over time. These image layers enable you to view recent, high-resolution imagery for most of the world; lower-resolution imagery of the planet updated daily; and near real-time imagery for parts of the world affected by major events, such as natural disasters. This includes intelligent layers that enable you to restyle the imagery to highlight specific characteristics, such as healthy vegetation. Basemaps Includes a suite of basemaps that provide reference maps for our world and context for your work. These maps are built from the best available data from a community of authoritative providers and presented in multiple cartographic styles. The maps are designed to emphasize different views of our world, from physical to political. You can choose the basemap that is most appropriate for your map or app. Demographics and Lifestyle Includes a comprehensive set of demographic and lifestyle maps of the United States and more than 120 other countries. This includes recent demographic and Tapestry Segmentation lifestyle information such as total population, family size, household income, and more. It also includes consumer spending information on many types of products. This information can be accessed as ready-to-use map layers, including preconfigured pop-up windows, which can be restyled and added to your maps and apps. Boundaries and Places Includes a set of map layers that describe boundaries at many levels of geography, including countries, administrative areas, postal codes, and more. You can use these boundaries and place layers for simple geographic context or to aggregate your own data to visualize on a map. Landscape The collection of landscape maps and layers available through ArcGIS covers a wide set of topics related to our natural and man-made environments, including agriculture, wildlife, elevation, hydrology, and weather. Landscape analysis underpins much of our land-use planning and how we manage our natural resources and relationship with the environment. As part of this collection, Esri has assembled best available data from many public sources and provided the content in an easy-to-use collection of layers, which can be used to make better informed decisions. Community Maps You can contribute to several maps through our Community Maps Program in an effort to make them more useful not just for your organization, but others. Thousands of ArcGIS users have improved the coverage and quality of our maps by providing access to their geographic data and imagery. Join the growing list of organizations that contribute their content to a living global atlas of online maps and spatial information. Transportation Includes a number of maps and layers that describe the systems that people use to move between places. This includes a variety of global, national, and local maps on various topics from infrastructure projects to rest areas. Some of these layers are dynamic, such as the live World Traffic map, which is updated every few minutes with data on traffic incidents and congestion. Urban Systems Over half of the world’s population now lives in cities, and the percentage is growing. This urbanization has a profound impact on our lives, and it presents unique challenges for managing urban systems. This collection of maps and layers provides useful information, such as open space, highway access and noise pollution, to help cities implement innovative solutions for the complex problems they face. This includes standard layers that can be used to compare different cities as well as detailed urban landscapes that can be utilized for visualization and analysis. Earth Observations Includes a rich collection of earth observation maps and layers that describe our planet’s current conditions, from earthquakes and fires to severe weather and hurricanes, as well as changes over time. This includes a set of live feed layers featuring frequently updated data from several sources, as well as scientific information, such as soil moisture and snowpack, over several years. Historical Maps Includes a rich set of historical maps that illustrate the world as it existed decades and even centuries ago. These maps describe the political, cultural, and physical aspects of our world, providing a revealing glimpse into the past and a better understanding of how our planet has evolved over time. This collection includes scanned raster maps presented as both static map layers and dynamic image layers, which can be viewed individually as a basemap or displayed with a current basemap for comparison purposes. The next time your organization submits updates to Community Maps, consider how you might leverage additional content by contributing to other communities discussed above. If your organization is not participating in the Living Atlas consider sharing your authoritative content with the global GIS Community. We will host your content for free through our secure cloud services. For additional information on Community Maps visit the Community Maps Program Website and the Community Maps Resource Center. If you have general questions you can visit our growing FAQ page for most answers. You can register your organization with Community Maps through the Community Maps Contributor App. It’s easy and only takes a few minutes. Email us at communitymaps@esri.com and we’ll help you get started.

The ArcGIS Content Team has updated the World Topographic Map and Imagery Basemap. We managed to sneak in an update before the end of the year and wanted to share those details and welcome some new contributors. Another big thanks to the user community who are helping improve the Community Basemaps by submitting new and updated content to the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World. What’s New? Before we dive into the latest updates, I want to draw your attention to the new user experience offered by ArcGIS Online. Check out the new ArcGIS Online Features and Ready-to-Use Maps pages! For information on new features and enhancements, read the blog. Topographic Map Updates and Useful Applications Updates this week include 3 new contributions and 7 updates for locations in the United States, Canada and the State of Kuwait.

These tools provide a simple way for Community Maps contributors to migrate their basemap layers to a format readily accepted by Esri Community Maps, without having to adopt a new data model. The blog below will provide the details and how to register your organization. New online Community Maps Data Preparation Tools workshop available in 2015 Contributions and Feedback These contributions were made through the Community Maps Program. For more information visit the Community Maps Program Resource Center. The service was updated on the following servers: services.arcgisonline.com and server.arcgisonline.com. If you have previously used the World_Topo_Map, you may need to clear your cache in order to see the updates. If you have feedback on content, try our Topographic Map Feedback web map, or Imagery Map Feedback web map. Metadata for Imagery Map: This service is metadata-enabled. With the Identify tool in ArcMap or the World Imagery with Metadata web map, you can see the resolution, collection date, and source of the imagery at the location you click. The metadata applies only to the best available imagery at that location. You may need to zoom in to view the best available imagery. If you have other feedback or comments, please post them to the ArcGIS Discussion Group on GeoNet.
