An equivalent shift tool for vectors as the one available for rasters,

 

I couldn’t figure out if there is an equivalent shift tool for vectors as the one available for rasters. I’m aware of the “move” tool available in the editor toolbar, but what I need here is a tool that can be added to the model builder

 

Thank you

Jamal, 

You can do this using a python script with an update cursor and modifying the Shape@XY parameter.  Here is a link to a code sample Shifting features.  Another example Move Features can be found here on GeoNet posted by Mathew Coyle.  You can create a new script tool using python then use the tool in Desktop or even Model Builder.  See a quick tour of creating tools with Python and its related topics.

On a side note, are your rasters and vector data on the same coordinate systems?  If you are noticing a uniform shift in your data, you may be dealing with multiple coordinate systems and need to set the correct real-time transformations between the systems or Project some of your data to a different system.
