Available for an ArcGIS organization licensed with the ArcGIS IPS extension.
After preparing all of the required data components for survey-less indoor positioning, you can generate an indoor positioning dataset.
To generate an indoor positioning dataset, complete the following steps:
- Start ArcGIS Pro.
- Open the map you have created for IPS enablement or create a new one.
- On the ribbon, click the Analysis tab and click Tools
.The Geoprocessing pane appears.
- In the Geoprocessing pane, click the Toolboxes tab.
- Expand Indoor Positioning Tools and click Generate Indoor Positioning Dataset.
The Generate Indoor Positioning Dataset tool opens in the Geoprocessing pane.
- Click the Target IPS Positioning Datasets drop-down arrow, or click the Browse button
, and choose the IPS Positioning Datasets feature class that you want to use to store the positioning data. - Provide a unique name for the dataset in the Output Dataset Name text box.
- Click the Generation Method drop-down arrow and click Survey-less.
- Click the Level Features drop-down arrow, or click the Browse button , and choose the Levels feature class.
The feature class corresponds to the Levels feature class in the Indoors model and represents the extent of individual floors in the facilities. If you are not an ArcGIS Indoors user, you can create the Levels feature class with the Create IPS Data Model tool.
- Click the IPS Beacon Features drop-down arrow, or click the Browse button , and choose the IPS Beacons feature class.
- Click the IPS Area Features drop-down arrow, or click the Browse button, and choose a polygon feature class that represent the areas where you want to enable ArcGIS IPS.
- Click the Wall Features drop-down arrow, or click Browse , and choose the Wall feature class.
- Click Run.
The tool uses the relationship classes to generate IPS Positioning Points and IPS Positioning Signals related to the Target IPS Positioning Datasets feature class and populates them with positioning data.
You can use this data to create an IPS-aware map.
