Have you heard of the Esri 2020 Land Cover Map? This mapping service, develop! with a machine learning workflow, has the distinction of being the most detail! and up-to-date global land cover map ever produc! with 10-meter resolution! You can review our previous blog post for detail! information about Esri 2020 Land Cover, which is open to everyone and free of charge through ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World.
Let’s now create impressive visual land cover maps in 3 steps with Esri 2020 Land Cover Map. I us! ArcGIS Pro’s visual effects in the study below, but if you wish, you can perform a similar study using the blend styles of ArcGIS Online Map Viewer .
Using Visual Effects When Working with Layers
Since layers are display! on the screen in the order they are drawn, some or all of the underlying layer details can be hidden depending on the extent or content of the layer above them. Displaying layers together in a map is important to ensure that the message convey! on the map is clearly convey! to the target audience. Changing the transparency of map layers or applying blend styles gives you make sure your multicloud deployment is secure additional control over the appearance of your data.
First, I start by going to the Esri 2020 Land Cover Downloader page and downloading the map scene or sheet of the area I am interest! in.
I add! the file I download! to my map by creating
a project in ArcGIS Pro and adjust! my coverage according to my work area. Now, in the first stage, I first change the basemap service to increase its visuality. Then, I set a most tablets and phones do pretty well with images smaller blend style by selecting my land cover layer. Thus, I blend the basemap service with my land cover layer and obtain a new appearance.
Step 2
My map details look much better, but my map germany cell number is a bit oversaturat! and the classes look a bit less detail! than they were before. So I add! the Blank Black Vector Basemap tile layer, which is shar! through ArcGIS Living Atlas and is often us! to balance the appearance, over my basemap layer. I then apply a blending style to this layer to enhance the appearance.
