Item | Supported and recommended |
---|---|
GPU type | NVIDIA GPU with CUDA compute capability 5.0 minimum; 6.1 or later recommended. See the list of CUDA-enabled cards to determine compute capability of a GPU, or check the CUDA Compute section of the system requirements checker. |
GPU driver | NVIDIA GPU drivers: version 527.41 or later is required. |
Dedicated graphics memory | Minimum: 6 GB |
Recommended: 16 GB or more | |
Memory requirements depend on the model architecture and batch size being used. |
Note:
An out-of-date GPU driver will cause deep learning tools to fail with run time errors indicating that CUDA is not installed or an unsupported tool chain is present. Verify that you have up-to-date GPU drivers directly provided by NVIDIA.
Software requirements
The following software must be installed before installing ArcGIS AllSource:
Software | Minimum requirement |
---|---|
Microsoft .NET | Microsoft .NET Desktop Runtime 8.0.0 or a later patch release (8.0.1 and so on), using a Windows x64 installer, is required. Note:Microsoft .NET Desktop Runtime is updated frequently. It is recommended that you install the latest patches as they become available. |
WebView2 Runtime | Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime version 117 or later is required. If it is not already installed on the machine, use the Evergreen Bootstrapper or Evergreen Standalone Installer from Microsoft. Note:A per-machine installation (the default) of ArcGIS AllSource requires a per-machine installation of WebView2 Runtime. To do this, right-click the WebView2 installer and click Run as administrator. |
ArcGIS Enterprise requirements
If you're connecting to ArcGIS Enterprise, the minimum supported version is ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1.
Learn more about ArcGIS Enterprise system requirements.
Licensing
Two license types are available for ArcGIS AllSource. Depending on the type you use, you may need additional software or access to ArcGIS Online.
- Named User license—ArcGIS AllSource is licensed through an organizational account on ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Enterprise. If the license is through ArcGIS Online (the default option), licensing software is not required because ArcGIS Online is a cloud-based service provided by Esri.
If the license is through ArcGIS Enterprise, use the latest version of ArcGIS License Manager regardless of the ArcGIS Enterprise version used.
- Single Use license—No additional software is required for licensing.
SDK requirements
The minimum requirements to create add-ins using ArcGIS Pro SDK are described in the SDK GitHub repository.
Virtualization
ArcGIS AllSource is supported in various on-premises and cloud environments, as shown in the tables below.
In all environments, a GPU that is compatible with your virtualization platform is recommended for the best user experience.

VMware vSphere 7.x | Use VMware Horizon View 7.x and later only. Use the latest VMware and NVIDIA drivers. Refer to the VMware and NVIDIA websites for the most current versions. |
Note:
- ArcGIS AllSource with Citrix Virtual Applications is strongly discouraged because of poor Windows OS session assignment and management of GPU memory.
- If using App Layering to add ArcGIS AllSource to Citrix Virtual Applications and Desktops, the application may fail to start due to insufficient permission to the Flexnet Licensing Service. To prevent a failure, run a command line installation of the Flexnet Licensing Service with the parameter, MODIFYFLEXDACL=TRUE, for example: msiexec /I "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\AllSource\Resources\ArcGIS Licensing Service\ArcGISLS.msi" MODIFYFLEXDACL=TRUE.
ArcGIS AllSource provides a nominal level of functionality and performance in the following environments:
- Microsoft App-V
- VMware App Volumes
