Newspaper Caribbean

This web map provides a customized vector basemap for the world symbolized with a unique "newspaper" styled map, with a focus on the Caribbean. It has a black & white appearance with select features highlighted in red.  Many of the area fills have halftone patterns commonly found in traditional newspaper printing. This vector tile layer is built using the same data sources used for the World Topographic Map and other Esri basemaps.  The comprehensive map data includes highways, major roads, minor roads, railways, water features, cities, parks, landmarks, building footprints, and administrative boundaries. Alignment of boundaries is a presentation of the feature provided by our data vendors and does not imply endorsement by Esri or any governing authority.Use this MapThis map is designed to be used as a basemap for overlaying other layers of information or as a stand-alone reference map.  You can add layers to this web map and save as your own map.  If you like, you can add this web map to a custom basemap gallery for others in your organization to use in creating web maps.  If you would like to add this map as a layer in other maps you are creating, you may use the tile layer item referenced in this map.Customize this MapBecause this map includes a vector tile layer, you can customize the map to change its content and symbology.  You are able to turn on and off layers, change symbols for layers, switch to alternate local language (in some areas), and refine the treatment of disputed boundaries.  For details on how to customize this map, please refer to these articles on the ArcGIS Online Blog.This map was designed and created by Cindy Prostak.
