Create a Traditional Tile Package

Before creating the tile package, be sure to zoom out to the full extent of the basemap data you want to share in the tile package. The tile package generator starts from your current view extent and works its way down. So if you are zoomed in to a certain area, it excludes the areas outside the current view extent and only exports tiles for the area within it.

IMPORTANT: By default, ArcFM Mobile uses a basemap to set the spatial reference of the map view. Basemaps must be created with WGS 1984 Web Mercator, and other maps layers are reprojected to that spatial reference. However, you have the option to configure a different spatial reference to be used by all maps. Refer to the Solution Center Spatial Reference topic.

  1. In ArcFM, check under File > Share As for a Tile Package option. If there, skip to step 5.
  2. Select Customize > ArcMap Options.
  3. On the Sharing tab, select the Enable ArcGIS Runtime Tools checkbox.
  4. Click OK. You should now have a Tile Package option under File > Share As.
  5. With the map you want to serve as a basemap loaded in ArcFM, select File > Share As > Tile Package.
  6. In the Tile Package window, select a location to save the file to disk.
  7. Set desired values in the Tile Format and Item Description tab views.
  8. Click Analyze and fix any errors that ArcFM finds.
  9. Click Share. Next, you need to upload the package in Solution Center.
