Hi Erik,

There is no single tool to convert a BAG dataset to XYZ. However, you may use the following tools together to achieve that result:


  • Raster to Point tool (Conversion toolbox): Use this tool to convert the BAG file to a point feature class

  • Feature Class Z to ASCII (3D Analyst toolbox): Use this tool to convert the feature class obtained in the previous step to write to an XYZ file


If I may ask, is there a reason why you need to convert the BAG file to XYZ? ArcGIS can natively read a BAG file and you can run raster analysis tools on it directly.

Thanks,
