Esri map styles

Esri maps
Map	Description
	Esri Imagery This map provides one meter or better satellite and aerial imagery in many parts of the world and lower resolution satellite imagery worldwide. The map includes 15m imagery at small and mid-scales (~1:591M down to ~1:72k) and 2.5m SPOT Imagery (~1:288k to ~1:72k) for the world. The map features 0.5m resolution imagery in the continental United States and parts of Western Europe from Maxar. This map features additional Maxar sub-meter imagery in many parts of the world. In other parts of the world, the GIS User Community has contributed imagery at different resolutions. In select communities, very high resolution imagery (down to 0.03m) is available down to ~1:280 scale. For more information, see Esri World Imagery on the Esri website
	Esri Light Map This provides a detailed basemap for the world symbolized with a classic Esri map style. This includes highways, major roads, minor roads, railways, water features, cities, parks, landmarks, building footprints, and administrative boundaries. This basemap is compiled from a variety of authoritative sources from several data providers, including the US Geological Survey (USGS), US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), U.S. National Park Service (NPS), Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), Department of Natural Resources Canada (NRCAN), HERE, and Esri. Data for select areas is sourced from OpenStreetMap contributors. Additionally, data is provided by the GIS community.
	Esri Dark Gray Canvas This map provides a detailed vector basemap for the world symbolized with a dark gray, neutral background style with minimal colors, labels, and features that's designed to draw attention to your thematic content. This map includes highways, major roads, minor roads, railways, water features, cities, parks, landmarks, building footprints, and administrative boundaries. The vector tile layers in this map are built using the same data sources used for the Dark Gray Canvas raster map and other Esri basemaps. For more information, see Esri Dark Gray Canvas on the Esri website.
	Esri Light Gray Canvas This map provides a detailed basemap for the world symbolized with a light gray, neutral background style with minimal colors, labels, and features that's designed to draw attention to your thematic content. This vector tile layer is built using the same data sources used for the Light Gray Canvas and other Esri basemaps. The map includes highways, major roads, minor roads, railways, water features, cities, parks, landmarks, building footprints, and administrative boundaries. For more information, see Esri Light Gray Canvas on the Esri website.
	Esri World Navigation This map provides a detailed basemap for the world symbolized with a custom navigation map style that's designed for use during the day in mobile devices. This comprehensive street map includes highways, major roads, minor roads, railways, water features, cities, parks, landmarks, building footprints, and administrative boundaries. The vector tile layer in this map is built using the same data sources used for the World Street Map and other Esri basemaps. For more information, see Esri World Navigation on the Esri website.
	Esri World Streets This vector tile layer provides a detailed basemap for the world symbolized with a classic Esri street map style. The vector tile layer is similar in content and style to the World Street Map raster map. This vector tile layer provides unique capabilities for customization and high-resolution display. This comprehensive street map includes highways, major roads, minor roads, railways, water features, cities, parks, landmarks, building footprints, and administrative boundaries. The vector tile layer is built using the same data sources used for the raster basemap World Street Map raster map and other Esri basemaps For more information, see Esri World Street on the Esri website.
