[jira] [Created] (ARROW-15554) [Format][C++] Add "LargeMap" type with 64-bit offsets

Sarah Gilmore created ARROW-15554:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: [Format][C++] Add "LargeMap" type with 64-bit offsets
                 Key: ARROW-15554
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15554
             Project: Apache Arrow
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: C++, Format
            Reporter: Sarah Gilmore


It would be nice if a "LargeMap" type existed along side the "Map" type for parity. For other datatypes that require offset arrays/buffers, such as String, List, BinaryArray, provides a "large" version of these types, i.e. LargeString, LargeList, and LargeBinaryArray. It would be nice to have a "LargeMap" for parity.
