Available for an ArcGIS organization licensed with the Indoors extension.
Once you have imported your floor plans, you can manually create additional features in your Indoors workspace. These features can be used for generating the indoor routable network (point features) and to create categories (point and polygon features) to make features searchable, explorable, and routable in the Indoors web and mobile apps.
For example, you can add features that represent occupant seating assignments, places (such as offices, restrooms, and other work spaces or amenities in your facilities), or objects (such as fixed and mobile assets, hardware, or equipment) that you want to find on a map.
Configure these features as floor-aware layers to create categories, visualize them using the floor filter, and integrate with Indoors web and mobile apps.
Note:
Features you add to your Indoors workspace must be 3D points with z-values. Because the network dataset is 3D, all features must be in the same x,y,z coordinate system so that they can snap to the network at the appropriate z-value for routing or closest facility analysis.
Create features in floor-aware layers
You can create custom modeled features and configure them as floor-aware layers by including the following:
- A field that records the LEVEL_ID field value of the feature's associated level. This is used to identify the feature's associated level in floor-aware maps and scenes.
- The z-value of the associated floor in the feature's geometry.
Create points of interest in layers that are not floor aware
You can create custom modeled features in layers that are not floor aware by including the following:
- A field that contains information about the feature's associated facility. This field must contain one of the following:
- Facility ID—The unique ID of the associated facility feature.
- Facility name—The name of the associated facility feature.
- A field that contains information about the feature's associated level. This field must contain one of the following:
- Level ID—The unique ID of the associated level feature.
- Level name—The name of the associated level feature.
- Level Number—The facility-specific level number of the associated level feature.
- Vertical Order—The vertical order of the associated level feature. It uses a zero (0)-based ordering system to define the floor order, with the ground level of each facility represented as zero (0) and subsequent positive values representing floors above ground, while negative values represent floors below ground. Vertical Order values must be continuous within a site and cannot skip a value in the sequence.
- The z-value of the associated floor in the feature's geometry.
You can create categories from layers that are not floor aware by mapping fields to the Indoors model during category creation.
