Know How

Layer Package and Map Package

Layer Package (.lpk file): A layer package (.lpk file) is a single, convenient, ready-to-use file containing an ArcGIS Desktop map layer or group layer and the data it uses. Layer packages were introduced in ArcGIS Desktop 9.3.1. Desktop users can create layer packages so they can easily share their data with other ArcGIS users, as well as make these layers, including their attributes and the way they have been symbolized, available for display in ArcGIS Explorer. Once you've added a layer package to ArcGIS Explorer you can work with its contents like any other layer. For example, if available you can click layer features to identify them, view a layer package's legend, hide and show its layers, etc.

Map Package (.mpk file): With ArcGIS 10, complete map documents can be shared using map packages. Map packages include a map document (.mxd) and the data referenced by the map layers packaged into one portable file. Like layer packages, map packages make it easy to share maps that include the symbology of the source map by uploading the MPK file directly to ArcGIS Online or saving it locally and e-mailing it or making it available on a file share. Another valuable use for map packages is documenting your work, because a map package is a snapshot of the map and the current state of its data.

PostGIS

Enterprise Geodatabases unterstützen ab ArcGIS 9.3 (via ArcSDE) PostgreSQL: ArcGIS 10.1 Desktop unterstützt u.a. PostGIS und Oracle.

Datenaustausch

Lesen und Schreiben von Geodatabases

OGR

OGR (standalone) unterstützt ArcGIS-Formate lesen und schreibend.

AmigoCloud's GDAL/OGR Plugin for ArcGIS - eine Extension (Open Source):

  • Gives ArcGIS access to any of the vector formats supported by OGR. Since PostGIS is one of them, you can add it to ArcMap easily - just supply a Postgres connection string in the form of: PG:dbname=mydb host=myserver user=myuser . The plugin is free and Open Source. I have not created an installer yet (we have an installer that is part of a bigger suite for our beta users), but I did add experimental binaries that have been tested with ArcGIS 10.1 SP1. If you compile the code yourself, you should be able to make it work in previous ArcGIS versions, too.
  • Formats Supported: http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr_formats.html.
  • Download (binaries) and Source : https://github.com/RBURHUM/arcgis-ogr .

Grafikkonfiguration

ArcGIS Projekt (MXD), d.h. Grafikkonfiguration (Darstellungsmodell):

  • nach GeoServer exportieren: BRIDGE Plugin for ArcGIS (kostenpflichtig) [1].
  • nach TileMill exportieren: (including all symbols, renderers, and labels): Arc2Earch TileMill Connect (frei, Beta) [2].
