Vector tile layer containing styled place names labels for Antarctica. The names are chosen to represent features and regions on a large scale. Names representing smaller scale features are not included. The names are assigned a level. Those names which represent features at the largest scales are assigned levels 0 and 1. These will be visible at larger scale zoom levels. All other names are assigned level 2 and 3, and these appear once the user zooms far enough that the names can be discernable.

These annotations were then converted to features within ArcGIS Pro, and published as a Vector Tile layer to ArcGIS Online. Scale dependent rendering was applied to the vector tile layer to enable the names to show only at the appropriate zoom levels.
