Hi,
I have a CSV table with one column full of a string of XY coordinates which represent a line. The CSV was derived from a web map application where a user drew in a his/her own route from point A to point B.
I want to be able to bring this linear feature into GIS. I am not sure if this can be done directly. I successfully brought it into GIS using a few steps - Google Fusion Tables --> save map --> open lines in Google Earth, save as KML --> convert KML to shapefile in ArcMap.
That process is fine but I was wondering if ESRI has a tool that geocodes lines based on a string of coordinates. There are several attributes that need to be analyzed and the KML - Shp tool in ArcToolBox groups all the CSV columns into a single field which makes the analysis very difficult. I can attempt to delimit the data into individual attributes but would like not to if possible.
Also, I'm going to have to do this for several hundred lines which might make delimiting a big challenge.
Any thoughts? Thanks very much!
Tony
