Updated December 8, 2017:<\/strong>\u00a0 The Esri Vector Basemaps were recently updated to a new version (v2). The best way to access them in ArcGIS Online is through the Esri owned\u00a0Vector Basemaps group<\/a>, which contains the latest set of web maps and tile layers. See\u00a0What\u2019s New in Esri Vector Basemaps (December 2017)<\/a>\u00a0for information related to this update.<\/p>\n

The first release in 2017 of the Esri Vector Basemaps includes both an update to our commercial data source across Europe as well as two dozen community contribution additions in the United States. This week’s release also featured some enhancements to the features in the maps. As detailed in this blog post<\/a> from the end of last year, these maps are available to use in production web maps and apps.<\/p>\n

The 9 Esri Vector Basemap styles can be accessed through the Esri-owned Vector Basemap group<\/a>\u00a0which contains the latest set of web maps and vector tile layers.\u00a0If you\u2019ve previously created your own web maps referencing our vector tile layers, you\u2019ll want to update them now to use the latest version. The earlier beta versions are now in \u201cmature support\u201d and will be retired in a few months.<\/p>\n

Because all the styles link to a single vector tile set, the new data additions are immediately available across all the Esri vector tile layers and web maps<\/a>. \u00a0The tile set contains updated HERE data across Europe and community contributed data updates across the U.S. Find out how you can contribute to the Living Atlas<\/a>:<\/p>\n
