| | Name | Description |
|---|
 | Alias | The alias for this tool's toolbox. |
| Antialiasing | Specifies whether to use antialiasing when rendering the tiles. If antialiasing is chosen, edges of lines, borders, and text will be smoothed. There is a performance cost for this option. The performance cost is greater when using MXD-based map services (as opposed to MSD-based map services that have antialiasing defined in the MSD file). Antialiasing provides no benefit with raster imagery.
(In, Optional) |
| cache_format | Choose either PNG8, PNG24, PNG32, JPEG, or MIXED file format for the tiles in the cache. PNG8 is the default. (In, Optional) |
| data_frame | The map data frame to be cached. (In, Required) |
| dpi | The dots per inch of the intended output device. If a DPI is chosen that does not match the resolution of the output device, the scale of the map tile will appear incorrect. The default value is 96. (In, Required) |
| Layer | Layers to include in the cache if MULTI_LAYER cache type is chosen. (In, Optional) |
| levels | Scale levels available for the cache. These are not represented as fractions. Instead, use 500 to represent a scale of 1:500, and so on. (In, Optional) |
| map_or_layers | Choose to generate a FUSED or MULTI_LAYER cache: (In, Optional) |
| num_of_scales | The number of scale levels to create in the cache. This option is disabled if you create a custom list of scales. (In, Required) |
| object_name | The map service to be cached. (In, Required) |
| out_folder | The parent directory for the cache. This must be a registered ArcGIS Server cache directory. (In, Required) |
| out_object_name | Output Map Server (out, Optional) |
| out_server_name | Output Host (out, Optional) |
| ParameterInfo | The parameters used by this tool. For internal use only. |
| scales_type | Specify how you will define the scales for the tiles. (In, Required) |
| server_name | The ArcGIS Server machine hosting the service to be cached. (In, Required) |
| storage_format | Choose whether to group your tiles into large .bundle files using "Compact" storage format, instead of storing each tile as a separate file using "Exploded" format. Compact storage format is more efficient in terms of storage and mobility. (In, Optional) |
| tile_compression_quality | Enter a value between 1 and 100 for the JPEG compression quality. The default value is 75 for JPEG tile format and zero for other formats. (In, Optional) |
| tile_height | The height of the cache tiles in pixels. The default is 256. For the best balance between performance and manageability, avoid deviating from standard widths of 256 or 512. (In, Required) |
| tile_origin | The origin (upper left corner) of the tiling scheme in the coordinates of the spatial reference of the source map document. The extent of the source map document must be within (but does not need to coincide) with this region. (In, Optional) |
| tile_width | The width of the cache tiles in pixels. The default is 256. For the best balance between performance and manageability, avoid deviating from standard widths of 256 or 512. (In, Required) |
| tiling_schema | Path to a predefined tiling scheme file (usually named conf.xml). (In, Optional) |
| tiling_scheme_type | Choose to use a NEW or PREDEFINED tiling scheme. You can define a new tiling scheme with this tool or browse to a predefined tiling scheme file (.xml). A predefined scheme can be created by running the Generate Map Server Cache Tiling Scheme tool. (In, Required) |
| ToolboxDirectory | The directory of this tool's toolbox. |
| ToolboxName | The name of this tool's toolbox. |
| ToolName | The name of this tool. |
| use_local_cache_dir | Choose
whether bundle files should be written into a local directory on the server when creating a compact cache, instead of being written directly into the shared cache directory. If you choose this option, the bundle files will be copied into the shared cache directory as they are completed. This option improves performance when multiple machines are working on the caching job.
