Depending on how the original numbers are represented, the field calculations would be pretty easy as documented here - Converting degrees-minutes-seconds values to decimal Ddegree values—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop From there, you could add it as an XY Event Layer in ArcMap and export it to a new feature class. ...

By chance, are you projecting on the fly with your layers in the data frame?  For example, you're dataframe coordinate system is WGS1984 while the layers are in your local state frame?  If so, then this may explain the issue you're seeing. ... View more

You're welcome Matt.  To clarify the "may request" - if a customer chooses not to renew their maintenance, no problem.  The customer would contact My Esri/Customer Care Portal and download the release locked Pro license to continue using Pro. As this information has been public for many months, I highly doubt Esri would go back upon it.  Caveat - I do not work for the Esri Pro Dev Team and am an Esri ArcGIS Pro/Desktop/ArcSDE Instructor.  This is what I've been able to ascertain from conferences, discussions with the Pro Team, etc...  With regard to investing workflows in Pro, you can run parallel workflows in ArcMap and ArcGIS Pro concurrently.  If and/or when you choose to switch to ArcGIS Pro is up to you and your organization.  Hope this clarifies my comments. ...

Graeme - No public announcement per se but at the 2015 International Users Conference, ArcGIS Pro presenters in the Technical Workshops mentioned new licensing options for Pro 1.2 (scheduled for Q1 2016). Concurrent licensing - uses same/similar ArcGIS License Administrator as ArcMap. SIngle Use License - if you discontinue maintenance, a user may request a release locked standalone license for Pro.  Pro will not be eligible for updates.  It will open *.aprx's and be locked to that release where maintenance was discontinued.  One would still have access to ArcGIS Online/Portal services. ...

According to Support Services research, it's a bug: BUG-000085475 : Exporting feature data to Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML) causes ArcScene to stop responding in ArcGIS for Desktop 10.3. NIM066739 : Export to VRML gives an empty file when the multipatch created is from an external 3D file. ... View more

Labels are a property of a layer from the Table of Contents that is stored in the ArcMap *.mxd document.  It's not stored in the geodatabase.  Geodatabase annotation on the other hand is a feature class in the geodatabase as the other responder has mentioned and if feature linked uses a Relationship Class to maintain that link.  It's best to manage all mxd's and geodatabase using the Catalog Window and not Windows Explorer.  Hope this helps! ...

Another source is the USDA Geospatial Data Gateway at https://gdg.sc.egov.usda.gov/ Search by State, then County.  From there, download NAIP imagery for use locally on your computer. ... View more

Gabriel - I'd recommend the following two items to resolve this issue. -  Rename the ESRI folder to ESRI_old in the registry editor location: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\ESRI (To open the registry, type 'regedit' in the search window in the start menu.) - Rename the ESRI folder to ESRI_old in windows explorer. (C:\Users\UsrProfile\AppData\Roaming\ESRI) Let me know if you have any questions.  Good luck! ... View more

Hi Devlyn - this question was asked about a month of so ago I believe.  The solution may be found here:  Re: how to remove ArcGIS Pro recent projects form the start menu? ... View more

Hello Marc - I tested the Copy Features GP tool for selected points and lines.  It worked as expected - only created a new feature class for selected features.  I'm running ArcGIS Pro 1.1 (BETA) so perhaps that's why I'm seeing different results??? ... View more

Matthew - I'd recommend updating the driver for your video card.  Once you determine the make and model of the card, go directly to the manufacturers website to download the driver.  Simply using Windows Update does not download the latest driver.  Once you install the newest driver, the crashes should be greatly reduced.  Second thing you can do is delete the C:\Users\<user profile>\appdata\local\esri folder.  Let me know how it works out. Regards, Robert LeClair Esri-Denver ... View more

Two options to assist with ArcGIS Pro crashing: Delete C:\Users\<profile>\appdata\local\esri if there are performance issues. Go to the manufacturers website for your video card and download the latest driver.  Windows Update will not do this although it says it does. Hope this helps. Regards, Robert LeClair Esri-Denver ...

ArcGIS Pro 1.1 will have the a new SDK for .NET coming soon.  The blog posting is at:  ArcGIS Pro | ArcGIS Blog Guessing here - but I would "think" the ability to customize Pro at 1.1 and higher releases will enable this functionality.  At 1.0, I don't see a way to do it. ... View more

Another option to share it is via a Web Feature Layer or Web Map that is published from ArcGIS Pro. ... View more
