What Are Regional Groupings in the HERE GIS Data Suite?

Symptoms / Triggers:

1. You’re trying to understand how the HERE GIS Data Suite organizes its global data.
2. Your purchased data only includes specific regions, and you want to see what areas are covered.
3. You’re confused by how the HERE GIS Data Suite delivers data in “country groupings” rather than one single world dataset.

Quick Answer:

Regional groupings in the HERE GIS Data Suite refer to the division of map data into geographic country groupings for easier access and performance, delivered as separate datasets rather than a single global file. Each grouping includes data specific to a defined set of countries, allowing you to use the data efficiently in your Esri® environment.

Step-by-step Actions:

1. Open your HERE GIS Data Suite package by launching the .aprx project file in the ArcGIS Pro folder.
2. In the ArcGIS Pro project, expand the Catalog pane and check the Databases section to see the geodatabases containing data for different regional groups.
3. Explore the contents of each geodatabase to identify which country or region is included (data is delivered in regional groupings, not globally in one file).
4. Use the Project tab in the Catalog pane to access pre-configured maps that display layers relevant to the regions included in your purchased dataset.
5. If you purchased multiple regional groupings, you can connect and combine their datasets using standard ArcGIS workflows if needed for a broader project scope.
