Actually i am working on some meteorological data and some stations scattered all over my country. So, i have started using the spatial analyst option in arc gis (from therei have chosen IDW) to interpolate the other unsampled area from those stations so that i can compare the climatic variations across regions. For that, i need to have a contour map (shape file) and my instructor has made that for me and have sent through mail. I just downloaded the Zip-file and extracted and then saved in my working folder. After that i tried to open it in arc gis where nothing was displayed. When i opened the attribute table of that contour shape file, there were no data (i have just seen the titles). </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>I would be very grateful if this platform could kindly help me and sort out the problem.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Thank you, well in advance!!!</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Sun, 15 Sep 2013 09:08:53 GMT TenzeyOnleey 2013-09-15T09:08:53Z Error in reading a shape file https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-online-questions/error-in-reading-a-shape-file/m-p/556082#M28070 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Helo,</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>I think i have got the right platform and i had some problem while adding a shape file to arcgis.
