Directory of maps and data

The following ArcGIS Data Appliance 2023 services are available for you to publish and use with your ArcGIS applications. Click the service name to view a full service description including copyright and attribution information.

The services are grouped into the following categories:

  • Basemaps—Layers intended to be used on their own or overlaid with other layers
  • Reference layers—Layers intended to be overlaid on basemaps to provide reference information
  • World Elevation—Elevation layers for analysis and 2D and 3D visualizations
  • Elevation analysis—Geoprocessing tools for performing analysis on elevation data
  • Locators—Intended for geocoding places

Basemaps

Antarctic Imagery

Antarctic Imagery basemap

This map provides 15-meter TerraColor imagery for the polar region of Antarctica.

Arctic Imagery

Arctic Imagery basemap

This map provides 15-meter TerraColor imagery for the Arctic polar region.

Arctic Ocean Base

Arctic Ocean Base

This map includes bathymetry overlaid on land-cover and shaded relief imagery for the Arctic polar region.

World Hillshade

World Hillshade map

This map portrays elevation as an artistic hillshade.

World Hillshade (Dark)

World Hillshade (Dark) basemap

World Imagery

World Imagery basemap

This map is a compilation of satellite and aerial imagery worldwide.

World Ocean Base

World Ocean Base

This map includes bathymetry and inland waters and roads overlaid on land-cover and shaded relief imagery.

Reference layers

Arctic Ocean Reference

Arctic Ocean Reference layer

This map includes marine water body names, undersea feature names, and derived depth values for use with the Arctic Ocean Base map.

World Elevation

Terrain

Terrain map

This is a world elevation layer composed of multiresolution and multisource elevation data (DTM), which provides access to elevation values and derivatives such as slope, aspect, and hillshade to use in analysis and visualization.

Terrain 3D

Terrain 3D map

This is a world elevation surface to use for oblique viewing in scenes in ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Online Scene Viewer.

Elevation analysis

Profile

Elevation profile tool

The Profile geoprocessing tool calculates profile tables for lines you specify on a global elevation dataset.

Viewshed

Elevation Viewshed analysis layer

The Viewshed geoprocessing tool creates viewshed polygons for observation points you specify on a global elevation dataset.

Locators

World Places Locator

World Places Locator

This locator enables you to geocode various types of places around the world. It references a geodatabase of more than 30 million places including countries, states and provinces, administrative areas (for example, counties), cities, landmarks, water bodies, and more.
