Display credit information from a tpk file

Question

Hello,

Some of the .TPK files I intend to use in ArcGIS Runtime contain data which requires I show copyright and licensing information on the map.

This information is stored in the credits field of the .TPK file, I was wondering if there was any way to read this info and display it on the map in ArcGIS Runtime.

Thanks
Michael

Hi,

Hopefully the Attribution control provides what you need: http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/runtime-wpf/apiref/index.html?ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Toolkit~ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.Toolkit.Attribution.html

Thanks for the link Mike, this is exactly the kind of thing I have been looking for. I've managed to display the copyright information for an OpenStreetMap basemap layer. But I cannot display the Credits info from my LocalTiledLayer though, that type of layer is not in your list.

Do you know if there is any way of extracting the document details (such as the Credits field) from a .TPK file, so I can use the string somewhere in my application?

Thankyou
Michael
