Available for an ArcGIS organization licensed with the Indoors extension.
ArcGIS Indoors allows you to create and manage data and share maps and services in support of the following apps: Indoor Space Planner, Indoor Viewer, ArcGIS Indoors for iOS, and ArcGIS Indoors for Android.
Space Planner is a browser-based app that allows you to plan occupant activity in an indoor space. For example, Space Planner allows you to plan the work locations for employees on a corporate campus. Space Planner also allows the assignment of people to individual spaces, or to activity-based work areas, sometimes called hotels or hot desks.
The Indoor Viewer, Indoors for iOS, and Indoors for Android apps allow you to find a location or resource within a facility or site that includes several facilities. Once you find a place you are looking for, you can choose to get directions to that place to plan your travel time, or use it to log an issue for a fix or replacement of an item with ArcGIS Survey123.
Indoors allows you to curate the data, author maps, and share them to ArcGIS Enterprise or ArcGIS Online, where Indoor Viewer, Space Planner, Indoors for iOS, and Indoors for Android can access them.
Required software
One of the following is required:
- The latest version of ArcGIS Enterprise for a portal connection
- An ArcGIS Online organization
Set up Indoors
To use the Indoors tools, you need to configure the Enterprise portal or ArcGIS Online organization connection that is licensed for Indoors.
Note:
If using an Enterprise portal, ArcGIS Enterprise 10.8.1 or later is required.
Complete the following steps to set up Indoors tools:
- License Indoors in Enterprise or ArcGIS Online.
- Connect to the Enterprise portal or sign in to the ArcGIS Online organization.
Note:
The ArcGIS Indoors product data installation package is available from My Esri. This includes support and configuration files necessary to successfully run the Indoors tools, and downloading it is recommended.
Create Indoors data
Data creation involves the following high-level process that can be mostly automated using geoprocessing tools available with ArcGIS Indoors:
- Create the geodatabase.
- Load the floor plans and points of interest (POIs).
- Create the Indoors network.
Some required tables need additional configuration.
Map authoring
The map authoring process is different based on which app will be used to deploy ArcGIS Indoors.
Indoor Viewer
You'll need to prepare a map and, optionally, a scene to use in Indoor Viewer.
Indoors for iOS or Indoors for Android
You'll need to create a mobile map package to use with ArcGIS Indoors for Android or ArcGIS Indoors for iOS. Optionally, configure device tracking for a mobile device.
You can also configure your database for issue reporting with ArcGIS Survey123.
Indoor Space Planner
You'll need to prepare a map to use in Space Planner.
Share to your Enterprise portal
Once your map, and optional scene, is ready, you'll need to share it as a web map to your Enterprise portal so that Indoor Viewer and Space Planner can access it. Additional configuration in the apps is required.
