when toggle format what by license comment
May 19, 2015 at 11:40 comment added Mouagip @sfletche A bit off topic here but since you are using the Esri API for your custom map, maybe you can tell me how the licensing works. Is the Ocean Basemap free to use? Do I need an account/pay for access? I wasn't able to find any specifics on that.

May 6, 2014 at 23:09 comment added sfletche @StephenLead - I didn't mean to come off as cynical (but I can see how it is interpreted as such). I have an honest appreciation for this basemap and I use it in multiple applications. I am, however, disheartened to see ESRI continuing to make it difficult to integrate their tools/products with other (read: Open Source) technologies.
May 6, 2014 at 22:49 comment added Stephen Lead @sfletche your cynicism seems a bit misplaced - the new basemap works well in the Esri APIs, which is what Esri have designed it for. If it's causing a problem in OpenLayers I guess they'd figure that's not their problem...

Apr 29, 2014 at 19:53 comment added sfletche but what a pita in that i'll have to programmatically bind an overlay to a basemap so that whenever the basemap changes, the overlay will also have to change...
Apr 29, 2014 at 19:51 comment added Below the Radar I think you are right, you will have to add two layers to your map if you want the labels and the ocean tiles, but that's cool because you can manage labels more freely that way.
