Description

This web map provides a customized world basemap uniquely symbolized. It takes its inspiration from a printed atlas plate and pull-down scholastic classroom maps.  The map emphasizes the geographic and political features in the design. This vector tile layer is built using the same data sources used for the World Topographic Map and other Esri basemaps.  The use of country level polygons are preassigned with eight different colors.  It also includes the global graticule features as well as landform labels of physical features.  This map is designed for use with and includes the shaded relief layer.  

Use this Map

This map is designed to be used as a basemap for overlaying other layers of information or as a stand-alone reference map.  You can add layers to this web map and save as your own map.  If you like, you can add this web map to a custom basemap gallery for others in your organization to use in creating web maps.  If you would like to add this map as a layer in other maps you are creating, you may use the tile layer item referenced in this map.

Customize this Map

Because this map includes a vector tile layer, you can customize the map to change its content and symbology.  You are able to turn on and off layers, change symbols for layers, switch to alternate local language (in some areas), and refine the treatment of disputed boundaries.  For details on how to customize this map, please refer to the Esri Vector Basemap Reference Document (v2) and vector basemap articles on the ArcGIS Online Blog.

What are you basing the disputed borders on? Kosovo is not showing and Taiwan is appearing as part of China. Does this follow the US State Dept guidelines or something else?
