ArcGIS Excalibur 1.0 system requirements

Before you can take advantage of the capabilities of ArcGIS Excalibur, the software and system requirements described below must be met, including a base ArcGIS Enterprise deployment.

Software requirements

Prior to installing ArcGIS Excalibur, you need to install ArcGIS Enterprise 10.7 or later, which includes the following components:

  • Portal for ArcGIS
  • ArcGIS Server
  • ArcGIS Data Store
  • ArcGIS Web Adaptor

You can use the ArcGIS Enterprise Builder wizard to install ArcGIS Enterprise, or you can follow the tutorial to set up a base deployment manually.

Authorization requirements

The software referenced above must be authorized after installation. See ArcGIS Enterprise licensing for more information.

In addition, an ArcGIS Image Server license file must be authorized with ArcGIS Server, as it is a specialized licensing role for ArcGIS Server. Once ArcGIS Image Server is authorized, you can use its tools and resources to host, process, analyze, and explore collections of imagery, rasters, and remotely sensed data. Two key benefits of ArcGIS Image Serverare the following:

  • Image services—Quick processing and mosaicking of imagery and raster data collections
  • Raster analysis—Distributed processing and analysis of imagery and rasters
