Hello, everyone!
ArcGIS now supports the 1.0 OGC GeoPackage format. I am wondering how I can create geopackage files with raster tiles. Could you direct me to some documentation for it, please?
Thank you for your help in advance & happy mapping!
A patch to 10.3 is forthcoming (late February) that will support reading/display and writing of GeoPackage tiles. Source code will also be released via the Esri Github site for a ready to use GP tool to load GeoPackage tiled rasters.
So 10.3 is available and it seems that reading raster tiles is supported with the tool Make Raster Layer via Data Management Tools > Layers and Table Views.
I am following this documentation:
Make Raster Layer—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop
The tool gives a feedback that the layer is created, however it is not added to the Table of Contents, and also does not appear in ArcMap in any way.
Is there a place in my file system where I can find this layer file?Thanks
The display of raster data from a geopackage at 10.3 requires a patch. The patch is in testing and should be available this month.
Now that 10.3.1 is out, is the patch you reference already incorporated? I have ArcGIS 10.3.1 and am running into problems getting raster data from geopackages into ArcMap.
You can pull the latest copy of the raster2gpkg tool from GitHub. We had to make additional changes to the gdal18.dll. Pull from Esri/raster2gpkg · GitHub
Thanks. Unfortuantely, my problem isn't Esri Raster > GeoPackage but GeoPackage > Esri Raster. I can't seem to get Make Raster Layer to work with raster tiles in a GeoPackage. I even tried the ERDC Whitehorse Geopackage Download that is posted on the GeoPackage Encoding Standard web page. If I run the Make Raster Layer tool, it completes without errors but nothing happens. If I call the tool from Python, it generates an error:
Runtime error Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> File "c:\program files (x86)\arcgis\desktop10.3\arcpy\arcpy\management.py", line 7012, in MakeRasterLayer raise e ExecuteError: ERROR 000582: Error occurred during execution.
1) Have added the gdaal18.dll (for github) to Desktop10.3\bin)? are you using 10.3.1 or 10.3?
2) The Whitehorse Geopackage can't be displayed because it contains an invalid spatial reference.
