Make this Retro Vintage Antique Old-School Basemap in ArcGISPro

- Here's how to stack up some tile layers and blend them up to concoct a basemap that wouldn't look out of place in 1890. Except that you wouldn't have anywhere to plug in your monitor so it would be hard to show it to people back then. Ok bring a small generator. Wait, all these layers are sourced from Living Atlas, which didn't exist in 1890, so how are we going to serve up the tiles? Ok, let's say we print out a hard copy of this basemap, bring it back to 1890, and show it to some folks. Are they going to think it came from the future? I don't think so. Unless you showed it to a professional printer and they'd be peering closely at the laser printed ink and wondering what sort of newfangled lithography you wielded. Anyway, let's just say it looks old fashioned to us now, and forget about the whole time travel question. Plus, imagine the alternate universe you'd spin off if you were to take this map back to 1890. The unfathomable (wink) bathymetry! The impossible terrain knowledge! And say, what are those borders and country names? What are the Hapsburgs going to say about this!!
And so on.

Thanks bro !
I need those date used by you in this map. Would be grateful.
well you know where to find them!
I am misusing my university arcgis account for making a roadtrip map and was looking for just this sort of style! very nice👍
YUSS! what's the roadtrip to?
Germany has a ticket where you can use all regional trains and busses in the entire country for 49 euros a month. So we brought two folding bikes and a tent...
@@MerlijnDingemanse I wish I did that when I was at university! Except it would have been an old-style map - but also current!
Should work similarly in ArcGIS online, yeah?
wellllllll, you may not be surprised to learn that the set of blend modes aren't totally consistent between Pro and Online, and unfortunately this map uses "linear burn" a lot, which is not available in Online. BUT it's quite similar to the "multiply" blend. so you get something reasonably close. i tested it and it's a bit different but if i spent a few more minutes tweaking, i think i could dial them in to be nearly identical.
@@JohnNelsonMaps I'm sure you could! If there's one thing you're good at, it's dialing in the layers and blend modes!
@@Bob_Sage thanks Bob!
Would love to see you creating something related to INDIA😍😍😍
yes, good idea!
As always, very nice work!
thank you!
how to make maps like epichistory tv
ohhh adding this to my list of channels to check out!
LETS GO, JOHN NELSON YUHHH!!!!!!!!!!

Feel the Burn!
i added a third and a fourth burned parchment layer but i don't think the world is ready for it yet.
