Create Indoor 3D Dataset (Indoors)

ArcGIS Pro 3.4 | | Help archive

Summary

Creates an indoor 3D dataset containing the necessary multipatch feature classes to maintain floor plan data using a streamlined schema that conforms to the ArcGIS Indoors Information Model. You can use these feature classes when preparing 3D scenes of floor plans and share them across your organization.

Working in 3D allows you to bring real-world elements to the floor plan to support visualizing assets, analyzing space, and editing features such as stairway transitions or other architectural details. This tool allows you to store and manage 3D floor plan data as multipatch feature classes in a geodatabase. These feature classes include attributes that enable floor filter navigation tools in Scene Viewer and other apps that support scenes.

Usage

  • The target geodatabase must already exist.

  • The target geodatabase can be an enterprise or file geodatabase.

  • Multipatch feature classes can be stored and managed in the target geodatabase.

  • For the Indoor 3D Dataset Name parameter, you can specify a new name for the indoor 3D dataset or use the name of an existing dataset in the target geodatabase. If you use an existing dataset in the target geodatabase, the indoor 3D feature classes will be created in that dataset, provided it has both a horizontal and vertical coordinate system and does not contain indoor 3D feature classes.

  • The following feature classes are created in the Output Dataset parameter value:

    • Details3D
    • Doors3D
    • Facilities3D
    • Furniture3D
    • Transitions3D
    • Units3D
    • Walls3D
    • Windows3D

  • Use the Coordinate System parameter to set the spatial reference of the output indoor 3D dataset. Both a horizontal and a vertical coordinate system are required.

    Note:

    Do the following when choosing a coordinate system:

Parameters

LabelExplanationData Type
Target Geodatabase

The target file or enterprise geodatabase that will contain the indoor 3D dataset.

Workspace
Indoor 3D Dataset Name

The unique name assigned to the output indoor dataset. The default is Indoor3D. If a dataset with this name exists in the target geodatabase, the indoor 3D feature classes will be created in that dataset.

String
Coordinate System

The horizontal and vertical coordinate system of the output indoor 3D dataset.

Spatial Reference

Derived Output

LabelExplanationData Type
Output Dataset

The indoor 3D dataset that is generated in the target geodatabase.
