Does tpk (tiled package) support query tasks like spatial and attribute queries?

Question

Dear All,

I'm doing some research to see whether a tpk or mpk is going to be used in our application. The app allows spatial and attribute queries. Does the tiled package support these tasks? Or I have to go with map packages?

Thanks, 
Chris.

Thank you, Mike. that helped. Hi,

Tile Packages (TPK) do not support queries. It is a file which contains bundles of pre-rendered map image tiles, essentially disconnected from the source data.

Instead you should consider using the QueryTask in conjunction with a LocalMapService started from a Map Package (MPK).

Cheers
