Microsoft Building Footprints - Tiles

Microsoft recently released a free set of deep learning generated building footprints covering the United States of America. In support of this great work and to make these building footprints available to the ArcGIS community, Esri has consolidated the buildings into a single layer and shared them in ArcGIS Online. The footprints can be used for visualization using vector tile format or as hosted feature layer to do analysis. Learn more about the Microsoft Project at the Announcement Blog or the raw data is available at Github.
