Catalog all GIS data on a Server

DALINEPJ — Wed, 24 Apr 2024 12:51:09 GMT

Hi,

I have been trying to pretty much catalog all GIS related data (raster) from a large hard drive with very unorganized data on it.

I have messed around with the "Create Mosaic Dataset" tool and I can get footprints to show up.

Is there a way to catalog all GIS data including shapefiles/KMZs/KMLs and export this footprint to a shapefile or a kml so I can put into ArcPro or ArcEarth and click download or see the path to the individual data item?

Working it now any help or guidance would be very much appreciated.

@TanuHoque thank you this is great to show the footprints, what I want to do from here is when i click on a footprint (ex. a raster rectangle) then have it populate in the data with option to copy where on a harddrive its located. Any ideas if any tools exist to do this it would be very much appreciated.

@DALINEPJ

when you click a footprint polygon, it shows the path of the dataset in the popup window like below.

Is that not helping in your workflow? Maybe I misunderstood your ask. If so, would you mind provide me a bit more information to help understand.

Closing as this can be achieve with catalog layers.
