3D tiles services
A 3D tiles service is an ArcGIS Server web service originating from a 3D tiles dataset or 3D tiles package (.3tz). 3D tiles services represent large 3D content as an integrated mesh or 3D objects.
Publishing a 3D tiles service
3D tiles services are always published to a portal—either ArcGIS Enterprise or ArcGIS Online. You cannot publish a 3D tiles service to a stand-alone ArcGIS Server site.
When publishing to ArcGIS Enterprise, you can publish the following:
A hosted service (hosted 3D layer)—You can publish a hosted 3D layer from a 3D tiles package that you load to the portal or publish from data in ArcGIS Pro.
A service that references an existing cache—You can create a cache dataset before publishing and reference that cache dataset when you share the web layer from ArcGIS Pro. The cache dataset must include a file named
tileset.jsonto define the service.
ArcGIS Enterprise 11.4 and later support 3D tiles services. ArcGIS Pro 3.4 and later support 3D tiles layers.
When you publish to ArcGIS Online, a hosted layer is always created. You can publish from ArcGIS Pro or a 3D tiles package that you load to the ArcGIS Online organization.
