I have two feature services. An old and new one. They serve different purposes and are regularly updated by different teams. They have some common fields but not all.

 

I would like to regularly find common rows based on column key and update one of them

 

Layer to be updated:

 

item=gis.content.get('xxxxx')
l=item.layers[0] 
df=l.query().sdf
df.head()

 

 

Layer to be used to update;

 

item=gis.content.get('yyyyy')
l=item.layers[0] 
df2=l.query().sdf
df2.head()

 

 

Using the python API CODE I tried the following;

 

g=l.query().features
g=l.query().features
for o in overlap_rows['key']:
    # get the feature to be updated
    original_feature = [f for f in g if f.attributes['key'] == o][0]
    print(original_feature)
    feature_to_be_updated = deepcopy(original_feature)
    print(o)#print(str(original_feature))
    matching_row = df2.where(df2.key== o).dropna()
    feature_to_be_updated.attributes['Long'] = float(matching_row['Long'])
    feature_to_be_updated.attributes['Lat'] = float(matching_row['Lat'])
    features_for_update.append(feature_to_be_updated)
    features_for_update

 

 

This results into an error;

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TypeError                                 Traceback (most recent call last)
In  [532]:
Line 9:     feature_to_be_updated.attributes['Long'] = float(matching_row['Long'])

File C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\Pro\bin\Python\envs\arcgispro-py3-clone1\lib\site-packages\pandas\core\series.py, in wrapper:
Line 112:   raise TypeError(f"cannot convert the series to {converter}")

TypeError: cannot convert the series to <class 'float'>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

 

On investigation, I found for some reason  the line below  at time returns two rows and not one despite the fact that the key is unique for each row;

 

matching_row = df2.where(df2.Ops_Code == o).dropna()

 

 

Any reasons why this is happening?

 

Has someone done such an update before?

I had this resolved. I  dropped duplicates. Being a large file, I hadnt noticed the duplicates
