Adding manual Points to failed Geocoded feature layer

Anthony_R_McKay — Mon, 29 Aug 2022 03:53:51 GMT

I have passes a large table thorough the ArcGIS Pro Geocode Tool - which has left we with a number of locations not Geocoded.

So I now have a feature table with fields from the original table which are not Geocoded.

I do not know how to add points manually without creating a new row and copying over the data tuple by tuple to the new row.

Is there a way to select the 'pointless' row in the table and add a point?

So far -
Selecting a row, then adding a point to the map just creates a new, empty, row.
If I try 'modify,' ArcGIS just laughs at me.

Any help would be appreciated.

@Anthony_R_McKay Have you tried using what is described in step 4 in the Rematch tutorial for the unmatched addresses? Are you using a locator you created to geocode the locations?

Thank you Shana,

That is quite useful for Geocoding, but I was wanting to know how to select an existing row in a table and simply add the position by placing a point on the map.

I imagine it's a common situation, where a table has been uploaded with a list of locations, and the points are added manually row by row.

It's probably child's play, but somehow I can't find the right buttons to press.

Thanks again,

Anthony

@Anthony_R_McKay

Try this:

From the Edit tab on the ribbon, click Modify to open the Modify Features pane
Open Replace Geometry tool
Select the row in the attribute table for the point layer.
Click Replace Point
Click on the map where you want the point.

That's exactly what I needed and such a clear explanation.
