Index Features in Map by Reference Grid

Question

Hello,

I have a tool created in .NET ArcObjects that takes the refence grid in a layout and creates a file showing which grid cell features fall within.

I would like to move this functionality in to ArcGIS Pro but wanted to check to see if anyone has done something similar before I start from scratch.

Let me know if anyone has done something similar in Pro.

Maybe this is worthy of an ArcGIS Idea too.

Thank you,

Mele

Thank you for the options you presented.    I did not know about the Gridded Reference Graphic tools.   I will definitely look into this further.   No need to write code if the functionality exists in the Pro.

For ArcGIS Pro, Gridded Reference Graphic might work for you.  This functionality was previously in ArcMap Military Tools and now available as a solution in ArcGIS Pro.

Another option is Generate Tessellation
