Issues in visualizing coordinates of a point feature class

AriannaNumi — Mon, 02 Mar 2015 15:21:05 GMT

Hi!

I am working on a georeferenced image and I created a new feature class in my database representing some points on the road.

I need to have a table with the point ID and the coordinates (northing and easting) for each point. I thought this was straightforward put into the attribute table of the class but it is not. If I rightclick on the points I can see their location in the Identify window: how can I visualize a table with them?

I know I am missing something, I have just started to use ArcMap.

Many thanks for your help,

Arianna

Arianna,

You can use the following geoprocessing tool to add coordinates to your attribute table.

http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.2/index.html#//001700000032000000

Add XY Coordinates (Data Management)

Alternatively, you can also add an X and Y field to your attribute table, and calculate the geometry of the points by right clicking on the field header.
