Hi, I have a CSV file with 2 columns. Region and State. Sample data below. I use ArcMap and Portal for ArcGIS version 10.4.1. I see there is a conversion tool called FeatureClass2JSON and vice versa. How would I create a feature class given the 2 columns? Any thoughts appreciated.

Thank you,

Albert

If it is a one shot deal then this online converter may help: CSV To GeoJSON Converter 

if you do it all the time you may want to modify one of these techniques:

Thanks Ted. This is a one shot. The CSV To GeoJSON Converter requires a Lat/Long which my CSV does not have. How can I get Lat/Long for all the 50 states?

Thank you,

Albert
