What's new in ArcGIS Pro 1.2
Highlights
Three licensing options
Before the 1.2 release, the only licensing option available for ArcGIS Pro was through Named User licensing. This license model required authorization through your organization administrator in your ArcGIS Enterprise portal or ArcGIS Online. At 1.2, you now have two new licensing models available that don't require you to go through ArcGIS Enterprise or ArcGIS Online: Single Use and Concurrent licensing. With a Single Use license, ArcGIS Pro points to a file for authorization. The file is stored on the same machine that runs ArcGIS Pro. With Concurrent licensing, a given number of licenses are hosted on a License Manager (the ArcGIS License Server Administrator). ArcGIS Pro is then configured to allow organization members to check out an available license from the pool of licences hosted on the License Manager.
Vector tiles
ArcGIS Pro 1.2 introduces vector tile creation. Vector tiles, like image tiles, are stored on a server and are used to draw data quickly at multiple scales. Rather than drawing pixels like image tiles, vector tiles store generalized representations of vector features. This means that vector tiles adapt to the resolution of the display of whatever device they are drawn on. The styling of vector tiles can be specified without re-creating tiles, and vector tiles can adapt to rotation, meaning that labels remain readable even when the orientation of the data changes.
Vector tiles are global basemap tile services for use with the ArcGIS configurable web apps and custom apps built with the ArcGIS API for javascript. Vector tile layers can be added to web maps as operational or basemap layers. They are created in ArcGIS Pro using the Create Vector Tile Package geoprocessing tool. The resulting vector tile package (*.vtpk file) can be published to ArcGIS Online or an ArcGIS Enterprise portal.
In support of vector tile creation, you can specify the scale range at which individual symbol classes are drawn when they are categorized by unique value or graduated colors. This can limit the amount of detailed data that draws at smaller scales-resulting in smaller tiles-without having to duplicate data in multiple layers.
Share layers that reference registered data
When sharing to an ArcGIS Enterprise portal, you can now share map image layers that reference registered data sources. With this option enabled, changes to your source data are instantly visible in your web layer-there is no need to overwrite the web layer to gather data updates.
Map image layers can be shared with associated feature and WMS layers. And they can be shared to any federated server to which you have access.
The alternative to referencing registered data is copying the data to the server. After the data is copied to the server and the web layer is shared, you can make updates to a local copy of the data before overwriting the previously shared data and web layer on the server. You control when the updates are moved to the server and exposed.
Publish 3D local scenes to ArcGIS Online and ArcGIS Enterprise
Web scenes can now be shared from a local view using a projected coordinate system. This is useful for projected datasets and when you have existing basemaps in the same projected coordinate system. The local web scene can be viewed in both ArcGIS Pro and the scene viewer.
