I have a model builder model.
For the model to run correctly all the inputs have to be in the same coordinate system. The first thing I want to do is project all feature classes to the same projection as one of the inputs. How to I make the coordinate system of on parameter the input to the project tool?
It should be exposed as a parameter in the project tool ... have you looked at that within the model?
If I make a model parameter the user can change it. I want it to match one of the other parameters. The reason is I am getting problems with clip where the two feature classes have different projections, the clip is way off (100+m) If I project one or the other of the inputs to clip it works. So I want to project the clip features to the projection of the clipper features. I don't want users touching this.
Ok... It gets messy I presume in modelbuilder. If you already have the feature class and/or know the projection you want, then you could presumably, derive it from the clip layer, within the Project tool
Yes I can do it in a python script but in model builder not really... I think.
Project all feature classes is your only propose of the model, or it is part of model?
No project is a means to an end which is convert features to polygons. The problem arises with the clip with featureclasses of different projections.
Are all feature classes in one geodatabase?
