| External data layers are not limited to scene extent and is the recommended way to add map themes that serve as overview or background only. External vector layers are typically roads, city outlines, coastlines and so on. A map containing a few layers of nation wide data makes a good overview map. Bitmaps may also be added if they have an associated world file or tab file. | External data layers are not limited to scene extent and is the recommended way to add map themes that serve as overview or background only.
