@ajr.lawrence: Do you have two separate point feature classes - desired points in one layer and the closer by (to be consolidated) points in another? If yes, then the above solution will work for you. If they (all points) are in one feature class then you'll need to follow extra steps or a separate path. Let us know. ... View more

Do you have VBA license installed? In 10, you need to install license separately. Request support for the license. ... View more

Could you be little more elaborate? For example: What is the target feature class (polygon or points) What is the join feature class (polygon or points) What is the Match Option You can right-click on Results and copy the result as python snippet and paste it to your forum response also. Have you run Check Geometry tool on both of your data sets? Which version of ArcGIS you are using? ... View more

CORRECTION: Before considering your issue as a defect I need to repro it locally. The corrected sentence would be: before logging the issue as a defect ... (NOT considering). ... View more

I ran spatial join with data similar to yours ((53,000 polygons and 65,000 points) as follows: JOIN_ONE_TO_ONE Field map: added a new text field and summarize field values from the point feature class. Keep all target features (checked) Match option: CONTAINS All other parameters to default. It's running successfully. What match option you are using? Have your tried after copying your data to a file geodatabase? Sometimes changing design or fixing defects may have side effects that cause new defects. I hope this is not the case here 🙂 Before considering your issue as a defect I need to repro it locally. I'll continue investigating. ... View more

I cannot repro it using large data in a personal geodatabase. Meanwhile, you can copy your data to a file geodatabase and run spatial join again - let us know if that helps. ... View more

Use Generate Near Table instead. Just make sure to uncheck the last parameter Find only closest feature. ... View more

This may be a defect. Let me investigate. Meanwhile, if possible could you write more about your data - how many features in poly and in point feature classes, spatial reference of the data etc? If possible please share your data. ... View more

Add a new field of type Text (string) and then run Calculate field as show in the image below. Basically, you use a codeblock to set YES for 1 and NO for 0. I'm using Python here. Use the new field in the Field Name parameter. Expression: calc(!Join_Count!) Codeblock: def calc(field):    if field == 0:       return 'NO'    return 'YES' ... View more

the feature falls completely within another feature When using Spatial Join, use the first group of features as target. In the Join Operation parameter, use JOIN_ONE_TO_MANY In the output, the Join_Count field will have 0 or 1: 0 means - False (the target is not completely within join feature) 1 means - True Let me know how it goes. ...

Use Create Fishnet tool (Data Management Tools > Feature Class toolset). Use the imagery data as the template extent. Run once. From Results tab copy the result as Python snippet. Then, use a python for loop to run in a batch. ... View more

CORRECTION: Batch Project is not deprecated. So, we'll consider the suggestion for both Project abd Batch Project tools. ... View more

Could you elaborate little more? Your OS, ArcGIS version, coordinate system of the local grid, and if possible the transformation parameters. ... View more

Thanks for the excellent suggestion James. I'm going to log your suggestion. As Batch Project tool is deprected in 10.0 and onward, we'll try to make the changes to Project tool. Thanks again. ... View more

Yes (and unfortunately) this is not implemented for Project tool (same for Batch Project as it just calls Project in a loop). So, if you want to send your output to a Feature Dataset it won't go there - instead, a standalone feature class will be created in the geodatabase containing the feature dataset. In order to enforce the output to go to the Feature Dataset workspace we'd have to disable setting an output coordinate system other than that of the destination Feature Dataset's. In such a scenario, the user wouldn't have the ability to change the spatial reference (to any other projection). This would've essentially hindered the main objective of the project tool. I guess, caught between two following scenarios, we decided to go for the current design (option# 2): 1. Let the user send the output to Feature Dataset (when the input is a feature class) without the freedom to select any spatial reference. 2. Let the user select any spatial reference by accepting the fact the output will be put in the geodatabase. ... View more
