Available for an ArcGIS organization licensed with the Indoors extension.

Summary

Adds the necessary datasets, feature classes, tables, and configurations to a geodatabase to host ArcGIS Indoors data.

Usage

  • The target geodatabase must be an existing geodatabase.

  • When using an enterprise geodatabase, the connection file must connect directly to the database, and the connection must be established as the database owner.

  • The output of this tool can be used by the Import Floorplans To Indoors Geodatabase tool to import CAD floor plans to your Indoors workspace. The output can also be used by the Import BIM To Indoor Dataset tool to load BIM floor plans to your Indoors workspace.

  • The optional Create Indoors Network parameter creates the Network and PrelimNetwork datasets and feature classes to support routing between indoor spaces.
