Hallo everybody, I know I asked many questions during the last weeks. I use Arcmap intensely for my point of knowledge sins this time and now I have another problem:
I need the openstreetmap-map in the background. The osm coordinate system is WGS84 (geographic coordinate system) obviously. Therefor I used the WGS84 grid for my other shape-layers, too.
I used the near-tool and I wondered about the wrong distances. I found out, that the output was a result of the wrong unit because of a geographic coordinate system (WGS84). So I think I need a projected coordinate system, which is suitable to osm, isn’t it.
When I changed the coordinate system e.q. to the national grid WGS84 world Mercator or GERMANY 3 Zone my layers didn’t fit to the osm-background anymore.
Please in case of any idea, give me an advice.
Thanks a lot, Andreas
Solved! Go to Solution.
255 fields is a limitation of Shapefiles. Also check if the total size of the shapefile (include all the files in different formats like .shp, .shx, .dbf, etc) exceeds 2GB.
To overcome the issue of Field and size limitation, you might like to save the feature in File Geodatabase (while exporting XY Event layer/table to feature class).
Thanks so much. a great remark for me again (and of cource for everyone too, who hopefully get help due to this postings)
so long! have a nice day
