Good Morning,
Does anyone know if it is possible to field calculate the extent of a polygon in a projection other than the projection the feature class resides in.
This python field calculate code Expression: !shape.extent.XMax! works perfect for the feature classes current projection, but I cannot find any reference to projecting that extent value differently.
We are currently in a state plane projection (WKID 2253) and would like to have the field values in 4326 (decimal degrees) to pull those field values into other non GIS software.
You can do this with point centroid calculations, but the same concept does to apply to extents.
'arcpy.PointGeometry(!Shape!.centroid,!Shape!.spatialReference).projectAs(arcpy.SpatialReference(4326)).centroid.Y'
Yes I know I can use add geometry attributes to do what I would like, but because that tool adds four new fields to a new feature class, I would prefer not to back join and field calculate to fill in the fields needed.
