Nova Carribean

This web map provides a detailed vector tile basemap for the world featuring a dark background with glowing blue symbology inspired by the ArcGIS.com splash screen.  This web map is focused on the Carribean, with a mask layer added to the basemap.The Nova map emulates this color scheme, with a grid pattern across the ocean and stripes or square stippled patterns for land use features visible at larger scales. The colors are reminiscent of science-fiction shows, where one is looking at a map of the world on a 'head's up' device or a map that would be projected from a transparent glass wall. Additional graphics in the oceans presents a futuristic user interface. The futuristic and less terrestrial feel theme continues with the geometric patterns, starburst city dot symbols, and cool color scheme. The fonts displayed are clean and squarish (san serif) with a futuristic, science-fiction, or high technology appearance.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.
