Export UN to Mobile Geodatabase

Question

Hello folks,

I am looking to export out UN dataset from Enterprise GDB to a mobile geodatabase on a monthly basis

for offline use. One way I am aware is using Export/ Import XML Workspace document. However this does not give me an option to filter out some records based on specific fields.

Any suggestions??

@JustinTrody This is the process for taking a web map offline, you may need to make some config changes to your feature dataset/utility network so I recommend testing it out in a staging environment first.

When you use the copy tool (or copy/paste) make sure you copy the feature dataset to the new geodatabase. I have done the workflow of copying data from/to mobile and enterprise geodatabases hundreds of times and can confirm it is supported and has been supported for some time.

@RobertKrisher ,

Thanks for the response. I have tried Copy tool. This doesn't seem to work as I am copying from EGDB to Mobile geodatabase. I get "000979: Cannot copy between different workspaces."

Offline work areas sound promising as spatial query may also be an option for us. However, how would we create a mobile geodatabase using offline work area? I need a mobile geodatabase to trace offline.

The Trace Results to GDB and Export Reporting Data could be used, but the output is neither an Asset Package or Utility Network.
