Change the basemap
A basemap provides a background, or visual context, for the data on a map. For example, a basemap showing streets can provide context for your address data. ArcGIS includes several different types of basemaps for you to use in Esri Maps for MicroStrategy, including aerial imagery, terrain, streets, and topographic data. The default basemap displayed on the map is determined by your administrator. You can change the basemap at any time to one of the other maps provided.
Note:
In Presentation mode, you can only switch between basemaps that have the same spatial reference system as the current map; only those maps are visible in the gallery. To change the basemap to one with a different spatial reference, open the document in Design mode.
- Click the Change basemap button
at the top of the map to display the basemap gallery. - From the gallery, choose the desired basemap.
The map automatically displays the new basemap.
