The World Imagery basemap continues to be updated with community contributions to the Living Atlas of the World. Our latest release adds updated imagery in nine communities across the U.S. and Europe. These high-resolution imagery updates replace older and/or lower resolution content. View this story map detailing all the contributors in our recent release. Also included are examples how the communities are using and sharing their contributed content through maps, apps and their portal.
