System requirements

Operating System

The R-ArcGIS Bridge’s arcgis meta-package for location services supports Mac OS, Windows, and most Linux distributions. In order to use the arcgisbinding package, you must have ArcGIS Pro ≥ 3.1 installed and licensed on a 64-bit Windows machine.

R Version

The minimum of version of R supported is 4.1.0. However, we recommend updating your R version whenever possible to keep up with enhancements, features, and any security updates.

Dependencies

The arcgis meta-package consists of many smaller R packages, each of these with different R package dependencies. However, all of them share a dependency on arcgisutils.

arcgisutils is built in part using Rust via extendr. We recommend installing a binary from the R-universe or CRAN.

install.packages("arcgis", repos = c("https://r-arcgis.r-universe.dev", "https://cloud.r-project.org"))

If you need to install from source, rustc must be available with a minimum version of 1.70. We encourage using the most recent version of rust.

We recommend installing Rust via rustup. If you are on Windows, you must add the Windows GNU target via rustup target add x86_64-pc-windows-gnu.
