Arcade convert State Plane Coordinates to WGS84

JoseSernaUDC — Tue, 03 Oct 2023 01:18:26 GMT

We're looking for a convenient way in Arcade (via an attribute rule) to convert a point coordinate pair from NJ StatePlane NAD83 feet to WGS84. We're using ArcGIS Pro 2.9. Looks like this functionality hasn't been incorporated yet into Arcade, but you all might know better. If there isn't we'll have to research the projection algorithm and work from there.

There is no single point projection, you will have to use tools in Pro or python via arcpy or the arcgis module

Thanks Johannes, do you have the link to the ProjectAs function in Arcade?

I looked for it here and no luck https://developers.arcgis.com/arcade/function-reference/

I'm looking to implement this on ArcPro Attribute Rules.

I should have been clearer...

There is no projectAs function in Arcade. Ideas are a way for users to request new features. The Idea I linked requests to implement such a function. If you want to support the idea, give it a kudo (klick on the thumb-up symbol).
