I'm working with a few roads and trails datasets. There are some duplicate geometries that are not identical. See photos below. I tried Find Identical with XY Tolerance, but it didn't seem to find most of these. I tried continuing to increase the XY tolerance, but I just got it finding parallel roads like the roads below. I even tried planarizing the lines and just got a bunch of segments. I thought about trying to pull them out based on number of intersections, but I'm not even sure how to make that work. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!   ... View more

I'm trying to create a tile package in ArcGIS Pro to use on a Collector map. I'm using clipped NAIP imagery. It keeps getting stuck at 100% for hours and not completing. I've tried leaving it overnight. It has all the required things: pyramids, a map description, etc. I've tried restarting Pro and restarting my computer. I can't figure out what could be preventing it from completing and would very much appreciate any suggestions. My Pro version is current. Thanks! ... View more

I'm trying to split this polygon about a dozen times. It was working for a while, but eventually it just stopped working. I started getting an error that the lines don't intersect the polygon, but as you can see in the attached photo, it certainly does. Please ignore the tail line outside of the polygon... I was trying to get a screenshot. Snapping is on, and when I hover over the split point, it shows I'm on an edge. How do I fix this? I have tried restarting my computer and ArcGIS. Thanks. ...

I'm trying to use ArcPy to apply a definition query to a layer based on a selection. First, I figured out how to use ArcPy to apply a definition query. This runs fine in a console, but won't run properly within the ArcGIS Pro Python console. That's unrelated to my current issue, but I would love tips on why that's happening import arcpy aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(r"C:\Users\melis\Documents\GISPortfolioProjects\CustomTools\Sel2DefQuery.aprx") m = aprx.listMaps("Map")[0] l = m.listLayers("parcels_centroid")[0] l.definitionQuery = '""State_1" = \'VA\'"' aprx.save()‍‍‍‍‍‍ Then I separately found out how to access the OIDs of the selected features. Again, this runs fine in a console but not in the ArcGIS Python window. import arcpy aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(r"C:\Users\melis\Documents\GISPortfolioProjects\CustomTools\Sel2DefQuery.aprx") m = aprx.listMaps("Map")[0] l = m.listLayers("parcels_centroid")[0] print (l.getSelectionSet())‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ This code gives the result {19,21} which is in the form of a set. So then I need to combine these two. This is what I have so far. It doesn't work. I can't figure out how to integrate the set into the SQL statement. import arcpy aprx = arcpy.mp.ArcGISProject(r"C:\Users\melis\Documents\GISPortfolioProjects\CustomTools\Sel2DefQuery.aprx") m = aprx.listMaps("Map")[0] l = m.listLayers("parcels_centroid")[0] OIDs = l.getSelectionSet() l.definitionQuery = '"OBJECTID" IN' + "'%s" %OIDs aprx.save() ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ I know there's something in my syntax that doesn't make sense, but I'm not very experienced with Python, and I've tried many variations of this statement and still can't get it to work. Is my problem that it's a set not a list? Or am I just trying to do it wrong? I would very much appreciate any guidance on how to get the SQL statement / definition query to work, and thoughts on why it runs fine in an outside console but not in the ArcGIS Python window.

I just switched to Pro. I used to be able to sort an attribute table by a field, copy, and then paste them into Excel or wherever in the sorted order. Now when I sort an attribute table in Pro and then copy & paste, it pastes in order by OID. How to I copy & paste in Pro and maintain the order in which I sorted it? Thanks! ... View more
