Overview
The packaging service contains a set of geoprocessing tools for creating and managing map areas. Map areas make it easier and faster for your users to work offline, by packaging up your map for a specific area ahead of time. Currently map areas are only supported when using your own runtime app. You can learn more about the preplanned workflow here. Map areas can be created using the ArcGIS API for Python, or directly through REST calls.
