Media Layers are a new kind of layer in web maps that allow anyone to quickly overlay scanned paper maps or images so they visually line-up with other layers. Paper maps are everywhere and bringing them into our web maps can be tricky. Perhaps you have a great scanned 19th<\/sup> century survey of your hometown, or a cell phone photo of a cute tourist brochure map, and you want to use them as a layer in a web map. Use the new Add media layer<\/strong> workflow in Map Viewer to drag-n-drop the image and then resize, rotate, and skew the image to get a good visual match with the modern map layers. Unlike the much more powerful rubbersheeting<\/em><\/a> and spatial transformations<\/em> capabilities of ArcGIS Pro, Add media layer is meant for quick visual overlays. If you need centimeter-level precision and advanced mathematical transformations Pro will always be your best bet. But if you want to quickly overlay images in web maps then Add media layer is here for you.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1840822,"id":1840822,"title":"Paris1780overlay","filename":"Paris1780overlay.jpg","filesize":1212335,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Paris1780overlay.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-online\/mapping\/announcing-media-layers\/paris1780overlay","alt":"","author":"6331","description":"","caption":"","name":"paris1780overlay","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1840812,"date":"2023-02-15 22:52:30","modified":"2023-02-15 22:52:30","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1618,"height":1346,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Paris1780overlay-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Paris1780overlay.jpg","medium-width":314,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Paris1780overlay.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":639,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Paris1780overlay.jpg","large-width":1298,"large-height":1080,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Paris1780overlay-1536x1278.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":1278,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Paris1780overlay.jpg","2048x2048-width":1618,"2048x2048-height":1346,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Paris1780overlay-559x465.jpg","card_image-width":559,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Paris1780overlay-1298x1080.jpg","wide_image-width":1298,"wide_image-height":1080}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Here we show you four control points (the colored pins) and your job is to find four distinctive geographic features you can see in both the media and the basemap. Then manually move the pins to those locations on both sides. Control points are always paired; one over the image and one over the basemap. Depending on the scale of your map, look for things like the corner of a building, the summit of a mountain, where highways intersect, or where two lines of latitude and longitude intersect. These features don\u2019t move around, which is especially important when dealing with vintage paper maps.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1840922,"id":1840922,"title":"SidebySideRefine2","filename":"SidebySideRefine2.png","filesize":457653,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SidebySideRefine2.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-online\/mapping\/announcing-media-layers\/sidebysiderefine2","alt":"","author":"6331","description":"","caption":"","name":"sidebysiderefine2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1840812,"date":"2023-02-15 23:02:51","modified":"2023-02-15 23:02:51","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/png","type":"image","subtype":"png","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2116,"height":1080,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SidebySideRefine2-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SidebySideRefine2.png","medium-width":464,"medium-height":237,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SidebySideRefine2.png","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":392,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SidebySideRefine2.png","large-width":1920,"large-height":980,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SidebySideRefine2-1536x784.png","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":784,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SidebySideRefine2-2048x1045.png","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":1045,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SidebySideRefine2-826x422.png","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":422,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/SidebySideRefine2-1920x980.png","wide_image-width":1920,"wide_image-height":980}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Zoom in as needed to really match things up. Want to check how it\u2019s going? Use the transparency slider, or go back to Overlay mode.<\/p>\n

A word of caution:<\/strong> With only 4 control points you aren\u2019t going to fix really distorted or weirdly projected paper maps. Nor is this a tool for doing proper mathematical map re-projections<\/a>. In those cases use the power and control of ArcGIS Pro. Unlike the Add Media workflow here, images added in Pro will have to be published and maintained as a separate tile layer, which makes the process more complicated.<\/p>\n

Finishing Up<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Once you\u2019re happy with the fit, click Update and close <\/strong>button in the bottom corner and your web map now has a new Media layer in it! As you can see below, the layer name is the same as the image file name. Since you can have only one image per Media layer, if you need to add more images to you web map, add more Media layers.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1840932,"id":1840932,"title":"CubaPlaced","filename":"CubaPlaced.jpg","filesize":254487,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/CubaPlaced.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-online\/mapping\/announcing-media-layers\/cubaplaced","alt":"","author":"6331","description":"","caption":"","name":"cubaplaced","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1840812,"date":"2023-02-15 23:04:03","modified":"2023-02-15 23:04:03","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":2111,"height":1011,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/CubaPlaced-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/CubaPlaced.jpg","medium-width":464,"medium-height":222,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/CubaPlaced.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":368,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/CubaPlaced.jpg","large-width":1920,"large-height":920,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/CubaPlaced-1536x736.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":736,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/CubaPlaced-2048x981.jpg","2048x2048-width":2048,"2048x2048-height":981,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/CubaPlaced-826x396.jpg","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":396,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2023\/02\/CubaPlaced-1920x920.jpg","wide_image-width":1920,"wide_image-height":920}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

If you want to make further edits to a Media layer, just click Edit placed media <\/strong>button in the Properties panel<\/strong> and you\u2019ll be dropped right back where you left off. Even better, if you select a different map projection later on, the media can handle this no problem and will be automatically reprojected along with the other layers in the map.<\/p>\n

Since these images are saved as part of the web map itself, there is no need for you to manage or maintain linked image files in My Contents, which makes life easy.

The best part: Because this is a layer in a web map we can control things like the visible range<\/strong>, blending<\/strong>, transparency<\/strong>, and so on. In the example above I did a few quick Photoshop-like effects to make the light-colored map dark, so it\u2019d work better with the dark gray canvas map. There is no need to leave Map Viewer, now, to do this kind of image editing work!<\/p>\n

Have fun bringing images into your web maps and say tuned for more enhancements as we continue to develop this capability further.<\/p>\n

Happy
