Create Indoor Dataset

Creates an indoor dataset containing the necessary feature classes to maintain floor plan data using a streamlined schema that conforms to the ArcGIS Indoors Information Model.

Create Indoors Database

Creates an Indoors geodatabase that conforms to the ArcGIS Indoors Information Model and contains the feature classes, fields, and tables required for maintaining indoor data for floor plan mapping, routing, space planning, and workspace reservations.

Generate Occupant Features

Creates or updates employee or occupant point data that conforms to the ArcGIS Indoors Information Model.

Generate Unit Openings

Creates unit openings as line features that model the location and physical extent of an entrance.

Import BIM To Indoor Dataset

Imports features from a BIM file into an indoor dataset that conforms to the ArcGIS Indoors Information Model. The output of this tool can be used to create floor-aware maps and scenes for use in floor-aware apps, as well as to generate an indoor network for routing.

Import Floorplans To Indoors Geodatabase

Imports floor plans from CAD files into an Indoors workspace that conforms to the ArcGIS Indoors Information Model. The output of this tool can be used to create floor-aware maps and scenes for use in floor-aware apps, as well as to generate an indoor network for routing.
