Esri Vector Basemaps is delivered on a USB flash drive loaded with two vector tile packages, styles, and style publishing toolboxes (.tbx file).
Note:
Esri Vector Basemaps ships separately.
This version includes the following:
- Installation
vector tile packages that you upload to your ArcGIS Enterprise portal using ArcGIS Pro and publish as a hosted vector
tile service on your hosting server:
- Esri_Vector_Basemap_DA2023_Install.vtpk—A vector tile package for customers who want to use Web Mercator Auxiliary Sphere (WMA).
- Esri_Vector_Basemap_GCS_DA2023_Install.vtpk—A vector tile package for customers who want to use Esri Vector Basemaps in WGS84 Geographic (GCS). This .vtpk file uses the WGS84 Geographic, version 2 tiling scheme.
- Map styles (for each projection) that you publish as vector tile layers to your Enterprise portal to use in your maps and apps or to customize. These styles require resources included in the VectorBasemapStyles folder for publishing.
- Vector Style publishing tools for managing vector basemap tile layers (map styles) in your Enterprise portal:
- VectorStylePublisher.tbx—This toolbox is used to create vector basemap tile layers.
- VectorStyleUpdater.tbx—This toolbox is used to update existing vector basemap tile layers.
- Map style text files
to help you with map style
updates:
- DA2023_WMA_StyleUpdater_template.csv—This file manages WMA styles.

- Documentation file (data_appliance_esri_vector_basemaps.pdf) that includes instructions for getting started, setup, using Esri Vector Basemaps, and more.
Note:
Do not use the Esri_Vector_Basemap_DA2023_Install and Esri_Vector_Basemap_GCS_DA2023_Install vector tile packages for anything other than publishing the tile layer (hosted). Once you publish the tile layer to your Enterprise portal, do not share the .vtpk files publicly (Everyone), as distribution of these items outside of your organization is not permitted.
