We have updated the World Imagery basemap<\/a> with more recent imagery from DigitalGlobe and several organizations from the GIS user community. \u00a0This latest update features DigitalGlobe imagery for large parts of Western Europe, as shown below.<\/p>\n

\"European<\/a><\/p>\n

This is the third in a series of planned updates to our World Imagery basemap with imagery provided by DigitalGlobe, expanding on our\u00a0initial update in September<\/a>\u00a0and second update in early October<\/a>. \u00a0This latest update includes 50cm resolution imagery for Western Europe where it improves on the image currency or quality of our previous imagery. \u00a0In many areas, the imagery is 2-4 years more current than the previous imagery, as you can see for a few sample areas (tabs 8, 9, 10, 11) in the story map below.<\/p>\n

Over the next few months, Esri will continue to release updates with latest available DigitalGlobe imagery from both Basemap +Vivid and Basemap +Metro products. \u00a0The next +Vivid updates will include 1m resolution imagery for several more countries. \u00a0In addition, we will soon release the first set of +Metro updates with sub-meter resolution imagery for hundreds of large metro areas around the world.<\/p>\n
