Hi,
I'm aware of some tools/workflows for adding 3D elevation data to point geometry (https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/point-to-pointz/td-p/356302). Is there a similar way to do the reverse?
With a PointZ Feature class, is it possible to convert to a simpler Point feature class, without the Z data?
Thanks!
Tools that honor the "output has Z values" Environment setting,
Output has Z Values (Environment setting)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation
can be used.
Both of these tools can be used. Just set the Environment Tab to disable Z
Feature Class To Feature Class (Conversion)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation
Copy Features (Data Management)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation
As mentioned by Dan, please disable "Output has Z values" in Tool's environments setting > Z Values.
Another easy way to do this would be to add an X and Y field to the PointZ feature class and calc their values, then Export table (the table only). Then right click the exported table and DisplayXY Data.
Henry - one way that I can think of is to create a new (non-Z value) feature class in your geodatabase with the same attribute schema as the input. Then run the Append geoprocessing tool to append the Z-enabled data to the new empty feature class. That should work...
