Change a map's basemap. A basemap is beneath all layers on a Map
and is used to provide visual reference for the operational layers.
Basemaps should be selected contextually. For example, in maritime applications, it would be more appropriate to use a basemap of the world's oceans as opposed to a basemap of the world's streets.
Use the drop down menu to select the active basemap from the list of available basemaps.
- Create an
