I have a feature dataset that was created years ago by someone other than me. The XY resolution and XY tolerance of the FD is incorrect:

  • Presently: 
    XY Resolution:1.62981450785392E-05 Meters
    XY Tolerance: 0.000130385160628313 Meters
  • Should be:
    XY Resolution: 0.0001 Meters
    XY Tolerance: 0.001 Meters

I want to do things with the FD like move a FC to the FD (by dragging and dropping in Catalog). But that's not possible due to the incorrect XY resolution and XY tolerance of the FD: Moving FC to feature dataset fails, despite spatial references [appearing to be] the same.

The FC's XY resolution is 0.0001 meters and the XY tolerance is 0.001 meters.

The only option I'm aware of is to replace the FD and FCs with new FD/FCs -- created from scratch, using the correct XY resolution and XY tolerance this time. That's not a desirable workflow due to the effort involved and due to existing dependencies on the data.

It would be helpful if I could use a GP tool, etc. to change the XY resolution and XY tolerance of the existing FD.

Hi,

You can use the following procedure to solve this problem.

  1. Create a New Dataset (Preferably in a separate Geodatabase), with the desired XY Resolution and Tolerance.
  2. Project the Feature Class using Geoprocessing tool and select the dataset as the destination
