Waterline: Community-Edited Vector Tile Basemap for Topographic Mapping

A vector tile layer provides a customized world basemap uniquely symbolized for special areas of interest. It is built using the same data sources as the World Topographic Map and other Esri basemaps. The City of Moreton Bay's Data Hub maintains this dataset, last updated on 2026-05-27.

Use Cases

• Create custom topographic maps based on the uniquely symbolized vector tile layer.
• Visualize community-edited landscaping features like grass, trees, and rock.
• Map sports amenities such as tennis courts and football/baseball field lines.
• Integrate a specialized basemap into GIS applications using the vector tile format.

Strengths

• Built from authoritative data sources used for Esri's World Topographic Map.
• Includes community-edited landscaping and sports amenities, likely enhancing local detail.
• Available in multiple formats including GeoJSON, CSV, and KML, facilitating diverse use.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to community contributions.
