ArcGIS Runtime SDKs

ArcGIS Runtime SDKs for Android, .NET, iOS, mac OS, Java and Qt help you build and deploy native applications to a variety of popular platforms and devices. Add powerful spatial capabilities to your native apps and empower your app users to do all things GIS, even when offline.

The 100.2 release, also known as ArcGIS Runtime Update 2, is the second major update to 100.0.0.

This is an important release for many reasons. First, it brings us closer to functional equivalency with 10.2.x versions of the Runtime. Second, 100.2 bridges most of the functional gaps between ArcGIS Engine and Runtime, allowing users to plan their migration projects to the ArcGIS Runtime platform.

With this release, experience new layers and data sources, additional analysis tools, 2D and 3D rendering improvements, better handling of standard and custom geographic transformations, workflow productivity enhancements, bug fixes and more.
