The place labels in ArcGIS basemap styles are, by default, rendered with global place names. By default, place labels in OpenStreetMap basemap styles are localized. To customize the language settings for a basemap style, set the language parameter in the URL request to one of the language codes from the table below:
| Language | ESRI Language Code | ISO 639-2:1998 | ISO 639-1 | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Global | global | Uses global place names. This default option will use the basemap style default, usually English. | ||
| Local | local | Uses local place names. This will use the names of places in the local language. For example, Lisboa for Lisbon. Note: local is not supported for Open styles. | ||
