| Base maps are a special kind of map data. Similar to a mosaic, they are made up of pre-rendered tile images which are delivered over the Internet and then stitched together by the GIS Editor to form a coherent map. You can zoom and pan around a base map just like you would a vector or raster layer. However, base maps contain no attribute data and cannot be styled, queried, transformed or modified. Think of them as a backdrop to use behind your more detailed vector or raster layer data. | Base maps are a special kind of map data.
