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
.
