This presentation explains the support for the new OGC GeoPackage specification in ArcGIS as available since 10.2.1 and with a roadmap for future releases. For more information, visit: http://esriurl.com/geopackage.

1. The Road to GeoPackage
@martenhogeweg

2. ArcGIS is Open to Many Data Types
Adding Support for OGC GeoPackages
Enterprise Data
(CSV)
Social Media
Services (WMS, WFS, KML)
Sensor
Networks
(SOS)
Imagery (WCS)
Big Data
(Hadoop)
Maps (Context)
GeoPackages
(gpkg)

3. Implementing GeoPackage Support
•
ArcGIS 10.2.1
-
•
An early draft of the vector specification from Fall 2013 (Draft
Version 0.8.2)
Desktop
ArcGIS 10.2.2
-
•
The final adopted vector specification
(Version 1.0)
Desktop and Server
ArcGIS 10.3
-
The final adopted vector and tiled raster specification
(Version 1.0)
-
Desktop, Server, and Runtime

4. Managing GeoPackages in ArcGIS Desktop
arcpy.gp.CreateSQLiteDatabase(sqlite_database_path, "GEOPACKAGE")
•
Create in Python or use a tool
•
Use Just like File or Personal Geodatabases
•
Focused on simple vector feature classes and tables
•
Builds on SQLite and OGC Simple Feature support
(ST_Geometry)
•
SQLite tools to create/edit/repair

5. Publishing GeoPackages as Web Services
•
Same as other geodatabases
•
OGC WMS, WFS, KML
•
Esri REST Services
•
Use in webmaps, mobile, desktop, …

6. Demo
GeoPackages in
ArcGIS

7. GeoPackage Useable in Multiple Implementation
Patterns
Open
File Based
Database Centric
Server Centric
Web Centric
