System Requirements

IT & Security Admin

CViz Pro 2.x requires:

  • ArcGIS Pro 3.0-3.7 installed and licensed.
  • A valid CViz Pro license key
  • Microsoft .NET components installed automatically with ArcGIS Pro.
  • Windows user account with permission to install ArcGIS Pro add-ins.

Recommended Hardware for Large Analyses

For Build-Out, Allocator, Suitability, and other computationally intensive analyses:

  • Intel Core i9 or AMD Ryzen 9
  • 32–64 GB RAM
  • NVIDIA RTX-class GPU
  • NVMe SSD
  • Dual monitors (recommended)

These specifications significantly improve performance when working with:

  • Large geodatabases
  • Complex Build-Out analyses
  • 3D visualization
  • Large indicator sets
  • Multiple scenarios
  • High-resolution aerial imagery

Supported ArcGIS Pro Versions

CViz Pro 2.x is designed for the ArcGIS Pro platform rather than ArcMap. Current CommunityViz downloads are provided specifically for ArcGIS Pro 3.0+, while the legacy CommunityViz 5.2 product remains available for ArcGIS Desktop (ArcMap).

Notes

  • MacOS is not supported natively. CViz Pro requires Windows because ArcGIS Pro is a Windows application. Running it on macOS requires a supported Windows virtual machine or compatible virtualization solution.
  • An SSD is strongly recommended for better performance, especially when processing large GIS datasets. Esri also recommends 32 GB of RAM and a dedicated GPU for demanding 3D and analytical workflows.
