Description

This vector tile layer presents the World Topographic Map (with Contours and Hillshade) style (World Edition) and provides a basemap for the world, symbolized with a classic Esri topographic map style, including both vector contour lines and vector hillshade. This layer includes highways, major roads, minor roads, railways, water features, cities, parks, landmarks, building footprints, and administrative boundaries. This vector tile layer provides unique capabilities for customization and high-resolution display.

This is a multisource vector map style. The root.json style file calls three vector tile services to display all the data in the map. The "esri" source contains all the basemap tiles for this layer. The other two sources are "contours" and "hillshade". 

Click the View style button on right to see the json. The multisource section of this code is shown below.

                 },
This vector tile layer is built using the same data sources used for other Esri Vector Basemaps. For details on data sources contributed by the GIS community, view the map of Community Maps Basemap Contributors. Esri Vector Basemaps are updated monthly.

This layer is used in the Topographic (Vector) web map included in ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World.

See the Vector Basemaps group for other vector tile layers.

It does not seem possible to use this in offline applications such as Field Maps.

How can I use this in ArcGIS Enterprise Portal? I am searching through my map viewer for it and while I can find it it only looks like the Base part of this map is included. There is no hillshade or contours.
