Offline map viewing

[HaniuHokkaido]

Hi,

Is there a way to view an offline map (shapefile) in android ?
I am developing an app for android that is supposedly able to view offline map. Is it possible to be done using arcgis sdk for android ?
If not, is there any other way ?

thanks

Hi Dano,

Thank you for your response. When is ArcGIS Desktop 10.2.1 going to be released, as I will be following the "Desktop" pattern due to network access issues with our feature services. So, is the 10.2.1 runtime geodatabase a new geodatabase TYPE? I see the ArcGIS for Android TYPE will be .geodatabase. I tried changing my .gdb's without success. Looks like I need to wait for ArcGIS Desktop 10.2.1.

Hello,
I have found the sample "Offline Routing (BETA)" under my Developers account. I downloaded and built it. But I cannot find the referenced data for the sample under this link

http://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=0dc5c1279ce5496db93bcfbdc8eee819

They are not available any more.
Is there any possibility I can get the data and test the sample?

Thank you,
Zdenek J.

It works well.

The link you referenced did not get updated.  I will update it and have the fix in the next publication for the website.  In the mean time, here is the sample in ArcGIS Online which has the correct link to the data found here.

I saw people discussing about this using 3rd party API here http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/56190-How-to-open-shape-file-(*.shp)-from-SD-Card

Hello,
Thank you for your message.
Can I have one more question?
I understand that the sample uses local Locator data. How could be this data created? E.g. I know, that there would not be any local Locator for Czech Republic Addresses for ArcGIS Desktop. Czech addresses are available on ArcGIS Online Locator Service, and they work great. But would it be possible to create local Locator package for places without Desktop Locator capabilities?

Thank you for any type of suggestion,
Zdenek J.

Runtime Locators are created through the Desktop pattern I offered in a previous post with respect to creating Runtime Geodatabases.  This will be available in ArcGIS Desktop 10.2.1 when it is released (scheduled) later this month.  Any data is supported so you should be able to create a Runtime Locator based on European data.  UTF characters will be interpreted correctly through the Android API.
