Hi all,
I've got a bit of a curve ball here which I was hoping you might be able to help me out with.
I have my basemap feature classes (i.e. Streets, Property Boundaries, Address points, and so on) configured with their naming conventions, aliases etc...
I've added the GlobalID, enabled Versioning as well as Archiving.
I've just deployed out first SDE GDB.
Each quarter, most of these datasets receive an update.
I want to be able to remove all features within a feature class and re-populate with the new data.
Theory being, we can see property boundaries as they were at any given point in time in relation to our underground asset.
With the exception of opening ArcMap, select all, delete from the existing and then selecting all features within the new dataset, copy and pasting the data in... Is there any easier way in which to do this?
Some of the datasets have over 3,000,000 records and i'm finding it's taking a considerable amount of time to copy the data across... That's if my system doesn't crash?
I'm tempted to run the updates on the ArcGIS server as it's closer to the SDE GDB, but I was just curious as to if anyone else has come across a similar issue and what their solution may have been?
Cheers,
Cory
