[gis_info] Expert Maps with Layer Blending: Free Blend Mode Guide

[Eric Pimpler]

Do you feel like you spend too much time on reordering and adjusting
transparency of layers just to show overlapping features, such as
hillshade? If this issue is still haunting you, then you must not have
moved on to ArcGIS Pro or the new Map Viewer, yet, where you can enable
various blend modes to quickly achieve your visual ambitions.

Though Layer Blending is new to GIS software, it has been available for
decades in graphics editing software such as Photoshop and Adobe
Illustrator. Simply put, layer blending refers to how overlapping layers
interact with one another. In more specific terms, blending modes are
mathematical equations that blend layers based on the pixel values which
define hue, saturation, and luminosity. Different blending modes use
different algorithms to characterize how the pixels will blend.
