Make xy event layer issues 10.1

KevinGledhill

I have a table with some lat/long values, and am simply trying to create an xy event layer from them. No matter what I do (format, projections, etc) they points will not create in the correct lat/long location. I believe it's a 10.1 issue, and maybe bug, since I sent the data to a friend with 10.0 and he had no trouble what so ever. I even followed his exact steps.

Are there known issues with the xy event tool in 10.1? Or any suggestions/pre processing I could do to make this work?

Thanks,

Kevin

Hi Kevin,

Can you upload the table you are working with, or post a sample?

Having the same problem at a fully patched ArcGIS 10.2.2 Standard w/64bit background geoprocessing on Windows 7 Pro 64bit SP1

The attached image displays a point "Identify." Notice the Lat_DD and Lon_DD attributes (used to create the points) do not match the "Location" values.

The attached File Geodatabase (zipped into a single file) contains two tables:

GCP_Table - Used the Lat_DD and Lon_DD fields to create the XY layer.
CreatedByMakeXY - Notice the XY Coordinate system is set to what I used to create the event layer

BTW - Same results using ArcGIS 10.0

Is this enough information? Thank you

Hi Bruce,

I didn't see an attachment. Can you try uploading it again?

Still no attachments. Try starting a new thread and then uploading your zip file.

The attachments are there and are downloadable from my message(s).

Maybe site privileges or some other geonet settings are not allowing you to seem them. I'm checking into that possibility.

Bruce,

The properties page of your layer indicates that you created the points using state plane (feet), NOT degrees decimal.

I think that might be a bit of a problem.

When you load a table into make XY events, you have to specify the correct XY columns & what the numbers in those columns represent, ie the correct coordinate system.
