Create additional features

Available with the ArcGIS Indoors Pro or ArcGIS Indoors Maps extension.

Once you import floor plans, you can manually create additional features in an 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 them with the Indoors web and mobile apps.

Note:

Features you add to an 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.
