Maxar’s high-resolution Vivid basemaps enhances Esri ArcGIS Living Atlas of the world

Maxar Technologies, provider of comprehensive space solutions and secure, precise, geospatial intelligence, announced that Esri, the global provider of geographic systems (GIS) and location intelligence, will enhance the World Imagery layer with higher resolution Maxar Vivid basemaps in the Living Atlas. With the new, multiyear agreement, Esri will use Maxar’s Vivid basemaps to upgrade nearly half of the global landmass in Living Atlas from 1.2 m resolution to 60 cm resolution. This enhancement reflects a continued investment from the Esri Living Atlas team to bring the best quality, highest resolution imagery basemaps to ArcGIS Online users for creating more accurate maps and making better decisions. www.maxar.com
