Additional Basemaps??

Hi All,

Can anyone tell me how to get google maps hybrid as an option in the basemap gallery?

Thanks

You can not legally as this would be a violation of their term of use. This has been discussed several times in the forums.

You can however add Bing maps.  Two helpful blog posts..

Using Bing basemaps in ArcGIS Online | ArcGIS Blog 

has info on how to add it to your basemap gallery, but you need to have a Bing key.  This has additional info on how to obtain one of those, if you don't have it already.

I have the same question and have been researching it over the past couple of days.  I found a 3rd party software that you might want to look at.  I am viewing right now.  Arc2Earth website http://www.arc2earth.com/
