Hi Everyone,
I am new to Python, I am creating one empty feature class using python code and trying to create polygon using text file which is having ID, X, Y values as below,
my text file points.txt and the code is as follows
1 542935 1619969
2 543015 1619964
3 543079 1619924
4 543095 1619896
5 543107 1619816
6 543099 1619768
7 543067 1619669
8 543047 1619629
9 543007 1619593

>>> import arcpy, fileinput, string, os
>>> from arcpy import env
>>> env.workspace = "D:/Data"
>>> inputfile = "D:/Data/points.txt"
>>> fc = "newpoly.shp"
>>> arcpy.CreateFeatureclass_management("D:/Data", fc, "polygon")
<Result 'D:\\Data\\newpoly.shp'>
>>> cursor = arcpy.da.InsertCursor(fc, ["SHAPE@"])
>>> array = arcpy.Array()
>>> point = arcpy.Point()
>>> for line in fileinput.input(inputfile):
... point.ID, point.X, point.y = string.split(line, " ")
... array.add(arcpy.Point(X, Y))
... cursor.insertRow([arcpy.Polygon(array)])
... fileinput.close()
... del cursorBut it is unable to create polygon feature, after running the code "newpoly.shp" is empty with values like
FID Shape Id
0 Polygon 0
where am i wrong?, why it is not writing geometry, Please help me
Thanks You
