I would like to create sequential numbers automatically without the use of the field calculator.  I have a point feature class with a column that has sequential numbers when I go to add a point I would like it to calculate or add  the next number in the sequence. I would like to do this without using python or field calculator.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you in advanced. ... View more

I'm using ArcGIS 10.3.  I have a point feature class.  With the point feature class I'm trying to use the Point to Line tool in Toolbox to create a line out of the points.  My problem is that the points were not drawn sequentially to represent a line the points were placed randomly within an existing line with no order or following and existing line say North to South. Sothe problem is in order for the Point to Line Tool to follow the points and create a line I need add a column that has a draw order but I have over a 1,000 points.  Is there any way to automate this? Thanks for the help ... View more

I'm using ArcMap 10.3 Standard.  I was given 2 point shapefiles of AutoCAD Stationing.  1 is of the accrual tick marks the other one is the text for the tick marks.  This is what I did converted the tick points (marks) to a line then I tried to somehow set the tick points to lines that follow the polyline standing up. Which didn't work.  I tried using ET GeoTools to create stationing which is exactly what I needed but that tool does not tack into consideration the PI’s, it just puts a point say every 100 feet.  I was wondering if anyone had any ideas.  Thanks in advanced. ...

I have a shapefile that I converted  to a .kmz from it's native projection (state plane- NAD83).  A college compared my kmz to an older version of the same .kmz.  The two did not line up in Google Earth.  I spoke with and ESRI Tech support they said I should reproject the shapefile to WGS84 then it should line up in Google Earth well it did not line up with the older .kmz.  Both shapefile line up perfectly in ArcMap.  I don't know how the older version .kmz was created.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how they convert a shapefile/feature class into a .kmz/.kml? Any info will help. Thanks ... View more

I'm doing research on how I can calculate worst case discharge for a pipeline. I'm guessing I would use Spatial Analyst/Flow Direction and Flow Length. The data that I should be using is a DEM converted to Points or contours a buffer around the pipeline and a polyline of the pipeline. Please let me know if I'm on the right track or if I do need another extension. Please be specific. Thanks. ... View more

I'm currently running ArcMap basis 10.2.0. in the pervious version 10.1 I was able to download an external module that could run python code.  In that module you were able to show line numbers which greatly help when you are learning coding.  It was locate on C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.1\lib\site-packages.  It was an .exe and the desk top module was a snake. I can't seem to find it when I go to C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.1\lib\site-packages.  does anyone know if it is still available if yes how to download it.  Thanks, chris ... View more
