Available with the ArcGIS Indoors Maps extension.
The key components of any ArcGIS app are the maps and scenes that provide the spatial experience. You can configure the Indoor Viewer app to use web maps and web scenes shared from ArcGIS Pro. Web maps can contain feature layers or map image layers, and web scenes can contain scene services.
Note:
If you created a scene, you must include a web map.
Share the route and closest facility web layers
You can share network and closest facility solvers to enable point-to-point routing and proximity-based sorting of search results. To share the indoor network in Indoor Viewer, you must share the network data and closest facility web layers to your ArcGIS organization on ArcGIS Enterprise.
Note:
You can publish route and closest facility layers to Enterprise only. Sharing to ArcGIS Online is not supported. However, once the network analysis is published, you can share it from Enterprise to ArcGIS Online.
To share the closest facility solver, complete the following steps:
- Sign in to your Enterprise portal in ArcGIS Pro.
- Create a map in ArcGIS Pro and add the network dataset for the site.
- Run the Make Closest Facility Analysis Layer tool to create a closest facility analysis layer.
- Run the Make Route Analysis Layer tool to create a route analysis layer.
- Share the analysis layers by doing the following:
- Click the Share tab.
- In the Share As group, click Publish Web Layer.
- Click the Configuration tab.
- Check the Network Analysis check box in the Capabilities section.
- Click Analyze and fix any errors.
- Click Share.
You can now use the closest facility service to sort search results by distance.
Share a web map
When sharing a web map, there are several options on the Share tab depending on your environment. A web map shared using Reference registered data creates a web map with map image layers. A web map shared using Copy all data creates a web map with feature service layers. Layers shared using Reference registered data reflect updates made to the enterprise geodatabase from which they are sourced.
Web maps containing a map image layer configuration can only be shared to Enterprise.
Sharing a web map containing map image layers provides better support for symbology scales and advanced cartography, and better performance and scalability. If you share an Indoors web map containing map image layers and it includes feature layers, the layers are moved above the Indoors map image layers in the table of contents of the output web map. If you require more precise control over the drawing order of the map’s contents, consider sharing the web map with feature layers instead of with map image layers. Choose the share configuration that best fits your organization's needs.

To share an Indoor Viewer web map, complete the following steps:
- Open the map you prepared for Indoor Viewer in ArcGIS Pro.
Ensure that all required layers are present in the map, and add any optional layers based on your organization's needs.
- Sign in to your ArcGIS Organization if necessary.
Note:
Sharing map image layers is not supported in ArcGIS Online. However, you can share map image layers on your server or portal and reference them in ArcGIS Online.
- On the Share tab, in the Share As group, click Web Map .
The Share As Web Map pane appears.
- Provide information for Name, Summary, and Tags for the web map.
- For Select a Configuration, choose the Reference registered data: Exploratory option.
This configuration shares layers as noneditable map image layers. If you require some layers to be editable, such as the Reservations layer, first share them separately as web layers using the Reference registered data: Editable option; then add the editable web feature layers to the map and share it using the Reference registered data: Exploratory option.
- Choose the appropriate Share with option:
- Everyone—Share your content with the public. Anyone can access and see it.
- My Organization—Share your content with all authenticated users in your organization. This option is available when you are signed in with an organizational account.
- Groups—Share your content with groups to which you belong and their members.
- Click Analyze and fix any errors in the web map.
- Click Share to publish the web map.
- Browse to the web map in the portal and ensure that it published correctly.
Use a web scene
You can share a web scene to your ArcGIS organization as a scene service for use in Indoor Viewer.
There are a few additional requirements and differences in the experience compared to sharing web maps. When you click the Content tab in the Share Web Scene pane, a list of web layers that will be shared to your organization to support the scene service is shown. To make the web scene layers editable, share them with associated feature layers.
You can add a published scene to the Indoor Viewer web app using its ID or by choosing the web scene in the interactive Indoor Viewer web app template configuration.
Note:
Web scene layers cached on the server are not supported on ArcGIS Enterprise on Kubernetes 11.2.
Update a scene in Scene Viewer
Once you share a web scene from ArcGIS Pro, you can open it in Scene Viewer from your ArcGIS organization. In Scene Viewer, you can further configure the scene with additional options, including the following:
- Add a cartographic offset to layers. For example, you can add a cartographic offset to the Units 3D layer to prevent it from obscuring the vision of features in the map.
- Add a visibility range. For example, you may want certain layers to be visible only when users are zoomed in to a specific facility, but not when they are zoomed out and viewing multiple facilities in the scene. By setting a visibility range, you can control which layers are displayed at different zoom levels.
Using these options in Scene Viewer, you can enhance the visualization and control the display of layers in the web scene.
