Only if your features are in geographic. The other tool has more options, including calculating other geometric properties and projecting to another coordinate system before recording the geometry (so you can get decimal degrees when the feature class is in UTM meters for example). ... View more

Try the Add Geometry Attributes tool.  ... View more

Submitting a help ticket does no good because it just comes back to me.   @ChristopherThiry  greetings from the South Dakota School of Mines! Re support, instead of asking for help on the arcgis.com site, you should request support from MyEsri (http://my.esri.com) or go to http://support.esri.com.  If you do not, someone in your organization has right to call - the phone number is also available at both those locations.  Hope this helps.    ...

You didn't say ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro. If ArcMap, and ArcGIS Administator app says they are licensed for Spatial Analyst, students need to go Customize > Extensions and turn it on.  If Spatial Analyst is not shown as licensed in ArcGIS Administrator, you need to update their license file (single use) or license server (concurrent) to support Spatial Analyst. Assigning Spatial Analyst in ArcGIS Online does not provide extension licenses to ArcMap, it's authorized from license files, not by username. In Pro, extension licenses should just work, if the user is authorized from ArcGIS Online by the site administrator. Since you have an academic license there is no reason not to license everyone for everything when you set up the license files. ... View more

I think I need to change the order to approach this: In the Pro UI, create layer files one for each unique combination of symbol, labeling, and time setting, as these are all properties of a map layer.  The best way to do this is to export layer .lyrx files from existing points that are all set up. (This button is in the Share tab.) Now add tools to import the geo-json using the tool that does that (sorry I have some ignorance here on the tool involved). This is the most tricky part, as it involves arcpy.mp python code in Calculate Value tools. Write Python functions to create a Layer object using the appropriate (symbol, time, labeling setup) .lyrx files (with all their properties all set up), assign them to its source point feature class, and move your layers where you want to be within the Contents pane.  There are methods on the Layer class to do things like set up time and labeling but it is easier to set this up in your .lyrx files using the UI. Each python function goes into its respective Calculate Value tools, the functions would take a created point feature layer as input. If anyone has better ideas, please chime in! ... View more

If one really needs this workflow, XTools Pro has implemented a method to edit attribute tables in Excel in their add-on software.  They handle all the export, update, refresh behind the scenes for you... pretty amazing coding IMHO! ... View more

A good tool to use to separate the values into bands is the Reclassify tool. ... View more

This sounds like a problem with your expression, not with ModelBuilder. SQL can vary between different ArcGIS data sources and especially different SQL databases, the expressions that work with some databases are not supported with others. I think you need to look at some PostgreSQL documentation and check the syntax for this type of query. The "date" keyword may not be needed here, see: https://sqlserverguides.com/postgresql-date-between-two-dates/ which uses:  SELECT name,end_date as left_date FROM employee WHERE end_date BETWEEN '1998-01-07' AND '2016-08-01';   ...

With a raster with many many unique values you often expect those other messages to appear as warnings.  My guess is the other errors would have been warnings, but the last one actually triggered the error condition for all messages. It looks like you are writing to Esri grid format, which is the least flexible with pathnames, when writing to a folder that even has a space it can sometimes fail.  I second the suggestion to try writing to .tif format, which is generally the fastest and most robust raster format. I would also verify your resources on the computer you are writing too (disk space, permissions) as these can cause really strange errors. ... View more

The expression may be valid but not for that particular data source. Have you tried running the tool outside ModelBuilder? ... View more

I'd ask tech support on this. Making sure the font supported italic was my only guess.  The only other thing I can suggest is look at the placement options. ... View more

Oh I get it. Change the CS of the map to equidistant and the point may line up with the buffer better. ... View more
