Add support for reading PMTiles in ArcGIS Pro

AmrMortada

I would like ArcGIS Pro to support reading PMTiles as a data source.

PMTiles is a single-file, cloud-optimized archive format for tiled map data that is becoming increasingly popular for distributing and hosting large vector and raster tile datasets. Supporting PMTiles would make it easier to work with these datasets directly in ArcGIS Pro without first converting them to another format.

Native support would improve interoperability with modern web mapping workflows, simplify data sharing, and reduce storage and management overhead by allowing a complete tiled dataset to be stored in a single file.

Adding PMTiles support would help ArcGIS Pro integrate more seamlessly with the growing ecosystem of cloud-native geospatial formats.

Hi @AmrMortada

PM Tiles is supported with the Data Interoperability extension, so not natively and in an ETL sense but may help you, see this link from the format help:

Hi @BruceHarold

Thanks for sharing this, I really appreciate it! It's good to know there's a workaround using the Data Interoperability extension. I still think it would be very helpful to have native PMTiles support in ArcGIS Pro, so users can open and work with PMTiles directly without needing the extension or an ETL workflow. I think that would make the experience much simpler and help ArcGIS Pro integrate even better with modern cloud-native geospatial formats.
