System requirements for 200.1

This page lists system requirements for the 200.1 release of ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET, which contains APIs to develop apps for Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), Windows UI Library (WinUI) 3, Universal Windows Platform (UWP), and .NET MAUI. Each API has specific system requirements for your development machine as well as for the machines and devices to which you deploy your app.

Requirements for app deployment

Prerequisites

All applications built with ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET require:

.NET MAUI requirements

Operating systems

  • Android : Android 8.0, Oreo (API level 26) or higher .
  • iOS : iOS 14 or higher.
  • macOS : macOS 13 (Ventura) , using Mac Catalyst; macOS 12 (Monterey) , using Mac Catalyst; macOS 11 (Big Sur) , using Mac Catalyst.
  • Windows : Windows 11 and Windows 10 version 1809 (build 17763) or higher , using Windows UI Library (WinUI) 3.

OpenGL ES

ArcGIS Maps SDK for .NET uses OpenGL ES technology to render map images. This technology makes the SDK much more versatile and usable by reducing the memory footprint, dramatically improving rendering speeds, and using less power. Rendering in 2D (MapView) uses OpenGL ES 3.0 if available on the device, otherwise, OpenGL ES 2.0 is used. Rendering in 3D (SceneView) requires OpenGL ES 3.0.

When using an Android emulator, you need to configure graphics acceleration. For more information, search the Advanced emulator usage topic in the Android developer documentation for OpenGL.

OpenGL ES 3.0 for geoanalysis

OpenGL ES 3.0 or above is required if you are using the geoanalysis tools. These analysis classes primarily perform work on the Graphics Processing Unit (GPU).

WPF requirements

Operating systems

  • Windows 11 version 21H2 (build 22000) or higher
