Navigation (Dark Mode)<\/h3>\n

The newly released Navigation (Dark Mode)<\/a> is a counterpart to our existing Navigation<\/a> style vector basemaps. The dark mode map was built with the Esri Tracker App<\/a> in mind. This provides a basemap for low-light conditions and emphasizing the purpose of the app: asset location tracking. It can also be used in other situations where you want to symbolize your own content on a darker background. This Navigation (Dark Mode) joins our three other dark-focused designs: Streets (Night)<\/a>, Dark Gray Canvas<\/a>, and Human Geography Dark<\/a>. Each of these Esri Vector Basemaps have their own unique styling and content specs. They also have their own daytime or lighter-style counterpart.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":552902,"id":552902,"title":"Navigation Dark Mode","filename":"trackerappNavNight.jpg","filesize":82208,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/trackerappNavNight.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-online\/announcements\/whats-new-in-esri-vector-basemaps-june-2019\/trackerappnavnight","alt":"Navigation Dark Mode Esri Vector Basemaps","author":"6081","description":"Navigation Dark Mode","caption":"New map style: Navigation (Dark Mode) Esri vector basemap","name":"trackerappnavnight","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":545922,"date":"2019-07-01 18:09:36","modified":"2019-07-01 21:29:17","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":900,"height":450,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/trackerappNavNight-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/trackerappNavNight.jpg","medium-width":464,"medium-height":232,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/trackerappNavNight.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":384,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/trackerappNavNight.jpg","large-width":900,"large-height":450,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/trackerappNavNight.jpg","1536x1536-width":900,"1536x1536-height":450,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/trackerappNavNight.jpg","2048x2048-width":900,"2048x2048-height":450,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/trackerappNavNight-826x413.jpg","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":413,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2020\/06\/trackerappNavNight.jpg","wide_image-width":900,"wide_image-height":450}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":"https:\/\/www.arcgis.com\/home\/webmap\/viewer.html?webmap=459cc334740944d38580455a0a777a24"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Stop by say, “Hi!” at this year’s User Conference<\/h3>\n

Finally, if you’re in San Diego for the 2019 Esri User Conference, stop at the Living Atlas Basemaps kiosk.\u00a0 We’re in the Data & Location Services area of the expo<\/a>. Get your questions answered from the team of cartographers making the maps. Or just stop by to say, “Hi!”, because we’ll have buttons and stickers to collect. For a selection of Tech Workshops and Demo Theater topics, use keyword vector basemaps<\/em> in the\u00a0searchable online UC agenda<\/a>. Session topics range from adding your data via the Community Maps Editor app<\/a> to contributing larger amounts of content through the Community Maps Program<\/a>. Learn best practices for building you own vector tiles in addition to how to find the best basemap for your use. For you creative types, learn how to restyle ready-made vector basemaps from the Living Atlas<\/a>.
