Directory of maps and tasks

The following Data Appliance World Collection 5.0 for ArcGIS map cache and task 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/attribution information.

The services are grouped into the following categories:

• Basemaps—Layers meant to be used on their own or overlaid with other layers
• Reference layers—Layers intended to be overlaid on basemaps to provide reference information
• Specialty Maps—Layers presenting specialized content that can be used on their own or combined with other layers
• Tasks—Services that perform a function, such as geocoding world places

Basemaps

Ocean Basemap Ocean Basemap includes bathymetry, surface and subsurface feature names, and derived depths.	World Imagery This map presents satellite imagery for the world.	World Street Map This map presents a street map with highway-level data for the world.
World Physical Map This map presents the Natural Earth physical map for the world.	World Shaded Relief This map portrays surface elevation as shaded relief. It is intended for use as a basemap layer to add shaded relief to other GIS maps.	World Topographic Map This map includes administrative boundaries, cities, water features, physiographic features, parks, landmarks, highways, roads, railways, and airports.

Reference Layers

World Boundaries and Places This map presents country boundaries, first-order (state/province) internal administrative boundaries for most countries, second-order administrative boundaries for the United States (counties) and some countries in Europe, and place-names for the world.	World Boundaries and Places Alternate This map presents country boundaries, first-order (state/province) internal administrative boundaries for most countries, second-order administrative boundaries for the United States (counties) and some countries in Europe, and place-names for the world.	World Transportation This map presents transportation data, including highways, roads, railroads, and airports, for the world. This map should be overlaid on imagery basemaps.
World Elevation This globe presents 90 m and 1 km elevation data for the world. This globe is intended for 3D visualization of terrain.	USA Elevation This globe presents 30 m elevation data for the contiguous United States. This globe is intended for 3D visualization of terrain.

Specialty Maps

DeLorme World Basemap DeLorme's topographic basemap is a seamless global dataset that portrays transportation, hydrography, jurisdiction boundaries, and major geographic features.

World Navigation Charts This map presents topographic data with aeronautical information overlaid, including over 200 Operational Navigation Charts (ONCs) across the world.

Tasks

World Places Locator Geocode world places including countries, states and provinces, administrative areas, cities, landmarks, and water bodies.
