Offline map viewing

HaniuHokkaido

Hi,

Is there a way to view an offline map (shapefile) in android ?
I am developing an app for android that is supposedly able to view offline map. Is it possible to be done using arcgis sdk for android ?
If not, is there any other way ?

thanks

We support offline basemaps as *.tpk and offline features a JSON. Currently the API does not support the shapefile format. The next release will have added support for other offline files types. To see our current support, refer to ArcGISLocalTileLayer. The CreateLocalJsonFeatures sample shows a local *.tpk basemap and features from a feature layer persisted as JSON for offline usage.

There isn't support yet for accessing a shapefile directly in the api. Stay tuned for what's coming in future releases in 2014.

Your best workflow for shapefiles is to convert them to a file geodatabase and use ArcGIS Desktop 10.2.1 to export as a Runtime geodatabase which will be supported in our upcoming v10.2 release.

Hi,

I have ArcGIS 10.1. How do I create a "Runtime" Geodatabase?

JasonAllen

Hi again,

Updated to ArcGIS 10.2. I cannot see any "Runtime" geodatabase functionality? Also, I cannot find any patch for 10.2.1 or 10.2 SP1?

DanO_Neill

There are two patterns to creating runtime geodatabases, 1. Services & 2. Desktop. The desktop pattern will be a feature of the 10.2.1 release of the ArcGIS platform. The services pattern is available on hosted feature services with enable sync feature. The Android SDK Developer Guide has a Create an Offline map document which steps you through the services pattern under Include operational data > Generate a geodatabase from a feature service. Let me know if you have any issues following that pattern to generate your runtime geodatabase files on device from hosted features services.

JasonAllen

Hi Dano,

Thank you for your response. When is ArcGIS Desktop 10.2.1 going to be released, as I will be following the "Desktop" pattern due to network access issues with our feature services. So, is the 10.2.1 runtime geodatabase a new geodatabase TYPE? I see the ArcGIS for Android TYPE will be .geodatabase. I tried changing my .gdb's without success. Looks like I need to wait for ArcGIS Desktop 10.2.1.

Hello,
I have found the sample "Offline Routing (BETA)" under my Developers account. I downloaded and built it. But I cannot find the referenced data for the sample under this link

http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=0dc5c1279ce5496db93bcfbdc8eee819

They are not available any more.
Is there any possibility I can get the data and test the sample?

Thank you,
Zdenek J.

Hello,
I was able to find the data here:
http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=bd441813cd2f4c8891aee671a65feb54

It works well.

Thank you,
Zdenek J.

The link you referenced did not get updated. I will update it and have the fix in the next publication for the website. In the mean time, here is the sample in ArcGIS Online which has the correct link to the data found here.

Hi,

I saw people discussing about this using 3rd party API here http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/56190-How-to-open-shape-file-(*.shp)-from-SD-Card

Hello,
Thank you for your message.
Can I have one more question?
I understand that the sample uses local Locator data. How could be this data created? E.g. I know, that there would not be any local Locator for Czech Republic Addresses for ArcGIS Desktop. Czech addresses are available on ArcGIS Online Locator Service, and they work great. But would it be possible to create local Locator package for places without Desktop Locator capabilities?

Thank you for any type of suggestion,
Zdenek J.

DanO_Neill

Runtime Locators are created through the Desktop pattern I offered in a previous post with respect to creating Runtime Geodatabases. This will be available in ArcGIS Desktop 10.2.1 when it is released (scheduled) later this month. Any data is supported so you should be able to create a Runtime Locator based on European data. UTF characters will be interpreted correctly through the Android API.
