#raster2gpkg

This is a Python based Geoprocessing tool that loads jpeg or png images to a GeoPackage. You should consider moving to ArcGIS 10.5 or Pro 1.2 where a GeoPackage image loading GP tool is part of the install.

#####Installation

Download Github repository as zip file onto your local hard disk, and unzip it into a folder.

Copy cache2gpkg.py to C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.3
Copy gdal18.dll to C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.3\bin (note: You may need administrator access)
Copy gpkg_scheme.xml to C:\Program Files(x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.3\TilingSchemes (note: you may need administrator access)
Copy the GeoPackageToolbox.tbx and raster2gpkg.py to a folder. A folder that will not get overwritten.
Start ArcGIS Desktop 10.4 and launch ArcToolBox. Right-click inside ArcToolBox, select “Add Toolbox”, and add the GeoPackage Toolbox from the folder from number 5. .

ArcGIS 10.4

Copy the contents of the Desktop python directory from the unzipped folder to C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.4\Lib\site-packages.
Copy cache2gpkg.py to C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.4
Copy gdal18.dll, GPCoreFunctions.dll, GpRasterFunctions.dll and RasterRenderer.dll to C:\Program Files (x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.4\bin (note: You may need administrator access).
Copy gpkg_scheme.xml to C:\Program Files(x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.4\TilingSchemes (note: you may need administrator access)
Copy the GeoPackageToolbox.tbx and raster2gpkg.py to a folder. A folder that will not get overwritten.
Start ArcGIS Desktop 10.4 and launch ArcToolBox. Right-click inside ArcToolBox, select “Add Toolbox”, and add the GeoPackage Toolbox from the folder from step number 5.

ArcGIS 10.4.1

Hot fix QFE-1041-DT-363565 is required for these scripts to work correctly. Contact support for availability.
Copy the contents of the Desktop python directory from the unzipped folder to C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.4\Lib\site-packages.
Copy cache2gpkg.py and cache2gpkgWGS84.py to C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.4
Copy gpkg_scheme.xml and gpkg_schemeWGS84.xml to C:\Program Files(x86)\ArcGIS\Desktop10.4\TilingSchemes (note: you may need administrator access)
Copy the GeoPackageToolbox.tbx , raster2gpkg.py and raster2gpkgWGS84.py to a folder. A folder that will not get overwritten.
Start ArcGIS Desktop 10.4.1 and launch ArcToolBox. Right-click inside ArcToolBox, select “Add Toolbox”, and add the GeoPackage Toolbox from the folder from step number 5.

NOTE: Please confirm the Raster To GeoPackage WGS84 Script Location inside the GeoPackage Toolbox before running.

#####To Create a Raster OGC GeoPackage in ArcGIS

In ArcToolBox open the GeoPackage Toolbox and create a new empty OGC GeoPackage using the Create SQLite Database GP tool. Make sure to select "GEOPACKAGE" as the spatial type.
In ArcToolBox click on the Raster to GeoPackage tool. Navigate to the new empty OGC GeoPackage that you just created and select a jpeg or png image to be loaded into the GPKG (e.g. “q0513ne.jpg”). Click OK.

#####To Load a Raster OGC GeoPackage into ArcGIS

In ArcToolbox go to Data Management > Layers and Table Views > Make Raster Layer
Navigate to an OGC GeoPackage containing raster data and select the tiles table (e.g. “main.q0513nejpg_tiles”)
Accept the default raster layer name.
Click OK.

#####Data example.gpkg - Sample empty geopackage.

q0513ne.jpg - Sample image for loading.
