Other Packages • Geoprocessing Package (.gpk)  - created from results in the Results window - contains all data and tools used to create the result - can add additional files to the package, such as text documents, slide shows, and compressed ZIP files • Locator Package (.gcpk) -  contains an address locator or a composite locator along with its participating locators • Tile Package (.tpk) - contains a tile cache of data that you can display as a basemap with ArcGIS Runtime applications
