Create IPS Data Model (Indoor Positioning Tools)

Summary

Creates an IPS Data Model containing the following components:

  • IPS Positioning Datasets

  • IPS Positioning Signals

  • IPS Positioning Points

  • IPS Recordings

  • IPS Beacons

Usage

  • The Target Workspace parameter value must be an existing geodatabase. The value can be a file or an enterprise geodatabase.

  • When using an enterprise geodatabase, the connection file must connect directly to the database as the database owner.

  • If the Setup Indoors Model for IPS parameter is checked, the tool will create and configure the following feature classes from the ArcGIS Indoors Information Model that are essential or recommended to enhance ArcGIS IPS functionality and visualization:

    • Sites

    • Facilities

    • Levels

    • Units

    • Details

    • Pathways

    • Transitions

    Note:

    The coordinate system of the existing Indoors Information Model will not be modified with this tool. You can select a coordinate system using the Coordinate System parameter for the IPS Data Model.
