Available for an ArcGIS organization licensed with the ArcGIS IPS extension.
An Indoor Positioning Data Service describes the locations of radio transmitters and their corresponding signal values in the indoor environment and associates specific sets of IPS Positioning Points and corresponding signal strengths at each location to facilitate real-time indoor positioning.
Note:
It is recommended that you verify the ArcGIS IPS coverage of the Indoor Positioning Dataset before sharing the Indoor Positioning Data Service.
To create and share an Indoor Positioning Dataset as an Indoor Positioning Data Service to the active portal, complete the following steps:
- Start ArcGIS Pro.
- Open an ArcGIS IPS map or prepare a new map in ArcGIS Pro.
- On the ribbon, click the Analysis tab and click Tools
.The Geoprocessing pane appears.
