Hello

 

 

I use FME 2015.1.1 to create a GeoPackage.

 

I write the data with dynamic settings and the result seems OK, if I use a SQLite tool to inspect the *.gpkg file.

 

 

Now when I want to open it in ArcGIS 10.2.2 I first need to run a special ESRI extension function from SQLite3 command line in order to be able to acces it from ArcMap. OK so far, but a bit of unwanted fiddling i.m.h.o.

 

 

Then I can view the vector data in ArcMap fairly well. Good so far.

 

 

Now problems start when I want to view tables without geometry. I cannot do that from ArcMap and when I use ArcCatalog it behaves as if tables are empty. I can see the contents of these tables in SQLite tools however.

 

 

Has anyone out there tried similar things or collected some experience with GeoPackage format ?

 

Will this improve in ArcGIS 10.3 ?

 

Can I change something in FME writing in order to enable alphanumeric tables ?

 

 

My impression is, that despite official claims by ESRI the support for GeoPackage is a bit limited so far ?

 

 

Thanks for any feedback

 

Michael
Hello

 

 

After upgrading my ESRI installation to ArcGIS 10.3 it seems I can access the FME created *.gpkg file in ArcCatalog without doing the special treatment required in 10.2.2

 

 

Remaining problem: ArcCatalog will display no contents of tables which don't have a geometry column !
