Issue with creating multipoints and running the symmetrical difference analysis?

RPGIS

Hi,

I have a script that is designed to quickly analyze thousands of points to determine if there are any intersecting points. If there are any intersecting points, run the geometry analysis to get all of the intersecting points. Use the symmetrical difference analysis to get all points that do not intersect.

 

InFeatureMPoint, RefFeatureMPoint = arcpy.Multipoint(arcpy.Array([arcpy.Point(*x) for x in ListACoords])), arcpy.Multipoint(arcpy.Array([arcpy.Point(*x) for x in ListBCoords]))

UnMatched = InFeatureMPoint^RefFeatureMPoint

 

When I run the symmetrical difference analysis; I keep getting and error stating:

 

return convertArcObjectToPythonObject(self._arc_object.symmetricdifference(other._arc_object))
ValueError: <geoprocessing describe geometry object object at 0x000002D08952E1E0>

 

I don't know what the issue could be. I assume it might have something to do with the number of records but it is hard to say. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

I still could not get it to work despite my efforts. Oddly enough I did find an abstract workaround that behaves similarly. What I had to do was intersect the two multipoint features then subtract the intersected feature from both multipoint features to get something similar. This definitely seems like a bug that I'll have to let someone at Esri know about. But so far that seems to work for some reason. 

Also, it works with both operators and functions in that regards.
