The Projected Coordinate Systems are the same, however, the extents are not. It seems that after projecting the shapefile, the extent changes and centers the shapefile to the THEMIS layer. So I end up with a tiny shapefile about 1 pixel in size in the centre of my rasters.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Any help would be greatly appreciated.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 30 Jun 2014 10:49:32 GMT EdwardYorke 2014-06-30T10:49:32Z Shapefile reprojection issues https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/shapefile-reprojection-issues/m-p/536031#M7362 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Dear all</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I'm currently working with some shapefiles for Mars data and have reprojected a geology shapefile to a THEMIS layer.

Or did you use the data's property page from ArcCatalog or the Define Projection Tool? If the latter, that updates the metadata only and doesn't permanently change the data's coordinate system.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Melita</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 30 Jun 2014 19:40:45 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/shapefile-reprojection-issues/m-p/536032#M7363 MelitaKennedy 2014-06-30T19:40:45Z Re: Shapefile reprojection issues https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/shapefile-reprojection-issues/m-p/536033#M7364 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Ah thank you! I just discovered this myself but you have explained why this happens. I updated in the catalogue and it wasn't updating the extent. Gold star!</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 04 Aug 2014 15:22:21 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-enterprise-portal-questions/shapefile-reprojection-issues/m-p/536033#M7364 EdwardYorke 2014-08-04T15:22:21Z
