This repository hosts the specification for the ArcGIS Scene Service, including the Indexed 3D Scene delivery format and the Scene Layer Package definition. These are the core resources:
This repository hosts the specification for the ArcGIS Scene Service, including the Indexed 3D Scene delivery format and the Scene Layer Package definition.

- [Indexed 3d Scene Format](./format/Indexed%203d%20Scene%20Format%20Specification.md) – Specification for the Indexed 3D Scene Format and Scene Layer Package
- [Specification for the REST endpoint](./service/SceneService.md) of the Scene Service with resources and operations
- A set of example JSON resources for each profile
- Validator rule files for each profile
The specification provides implementation resources that explain how to implement different types of 3D layers:

The structure of this specification is as follows:
- Format: Full logical format specification, including physical format specification for Scene Packages (*.spk)
- Profiles: Subsets the full format specification for different data structures:
- Features (Meshes, Points, Lines, Polygons)
- Meshpyramids
- Analytics
- Pointclouds
- Service: Contains the REST API specification for the Scene Service.
- 3D Objects (e.g. from Esri Multipatch)
- 3D Multirepresentation Objects (e.g. from CityGML files with multiple Levels of Detail)
- Point Features (e.g. from GIS Data)
- Line Features (e.g. from GIS Data)
- Polygon Features (e.g. from GIS Data)
- Pointclouds (e.g. from LiDAR)
- Analytics (e.g. from Sensor Data or Simulations)

We are also building a Validation Toolkit to support developers.

We are also building a Validation Toolkit to support developers that is available upon request.
