Hi,

I am trying to create a JSON file from an existing boundary polygon my organisation uses. I have used the features to JSON tool from the toolbox. however when I look at the text within the JSON file, all the polygon vertices are in XY / easting/northings. I need the JSON files vertices to use lat / long. 

How would I go about doing this ? 

Any help greatly appreciated, I'm pulling my hair out with this.

thanks

Hi Ben Cochrane,

Please have a look at the Tool Reference: Features To JSON—Conversion toolbox | ArcGIS Desktop 

I guess your input shape is not in lat/long?

I think you will have to set the parameter outputToWGS84 to true (as it defaults to false).

Does this solve your issue?

Cheers,
