GeoPackages are designed to simplify file management and transfer. They can store raster files (as well as other types of data). An end-user wishing to transfer rasters from ArcGIS Pro or between runtime apps, might need to import raster files from GeoPackages into their map to view and analyze the data.
How to use the sample
When the sample starts, a raster will be loaded from a GeoPackage and displayed in the map view. Pan and zoom to explore.
How it works
Create and load an AGSGeoPackage, specifying the URL to the local .gpkg file.
When it is done loading, get the AGSGeoPackageRasters from the geopackage.
Construct an AGSRasterLayer with the geopackage raster you want to use.
Add the raster layer to the map.

About the data
The Aurora Colorado GeoPackage holds datasets that cover Aurora, Colorado. The raster that is opened and displayed shows airport noise levels.
