Certainly the GP service can be used by multiple users. Each time the GP service executes a new job is created on the server. So no conflict there. What do you mean by the same "mxd"? Are users actually opening the same file on a network somewhere? ... View more

The Z will not differ, that's part of the geometry. And as regards which V datum the data is actually based on that will only be known by the source. Depending on the history of the data (perhaps it's capture date), you may be able to guess. National Geodetic Survey - Frequently Asked Questions FAQ  ... View more

And the last 3 lines also at the same indentation level as the if: ... View more

Firstly try and run this as a script in IDLE or pyscripter or something. You have the indentation wrong. The line starting else: Should be at the same level as the if: Indentation in python is a crucial part of the language syntax. Try doing a bit of reading up on python first. ... View more

WKID 3857 and 102100 are actually the same thing, just a historical difference. https://community.esri.com/thread/9351  ... View more

In your 2nd shapefile, those extent values look nothing like the extents in the first (very small numbers). I would suggest the the second one is not in fact actually in a projected RD_New system, but has simply been defined like that. It looks to me as if the actual coord sys is really GCS (geographic) ... View more

GP services can be quite tricky.... Just had a very brief look at your code. I do not see where it is returning anything? Where is the output to go back to the client. And if this is a table, how is the client supposed to use it? And BTW I don't think you need coords specified down to the sub-atomic level. xy = (414038.9985242901,130874.00962267019) ... View more

Although I know nothing about Java or whatever language, this looks to be the wrong way round : GeometryEngine.project(37.6, -122.5, spatialReference); I think that should be -122.5, 37.6 ... View more

A bit of feedback on this. So, reported this error to esri-SouthAfrica and it was forwarded to Redlands. Did get a response and some ideas to check, similar to the suggestions here. And, of course they wanted the tool and some data to try and replicate the problem, fair enough. So, I started to rebuild my tool from the ground up, slowly adding bits from the original. Guess what.... It worked, no more error 010240..... One of those great mysteries in life I suppose. A problem that I was battling with for 3 days or so, just disappeared. So, if in doubt, start again.... Thanks to all for your input here. ... View more

As far as i can see, PolygonToRaster is doing exactly what it says on the box. Your ID is the Value column. There are many reasons (like multiparts) why the Value column will not be the same as the OID in the attribute table ... View more

Also curious... "have a multi band Raster DEM" A DEM raster is normally single band, you only have one elevation surely? ... View more

It sounds like you are going in "via the back door" to delete database content. Can be pretty dangerous. Why not use the normal ArcCatalog interface to do this sort of maintenance. ... View more

Yes, when I am creating raster from whatever source, I always explicitly set the extents to be exactly the same, as well as setting the snap raster. To get the extent, just view the input data in ArcMap, then draw a graphic box around it using the draw tools. Then edit the starting points and width/height to exact meters (or whatever unit you data is in). Obviously this also has to take in what cellsize you want. ... View more

Yes, dozens of questions. LAS, has it already been classified, ground, non-ground, etc etc. Have you looked at the LAS to see if there are some unwanted spikes. This happens quite a lot. Classifying LAS can be a bit of a black art. If LAS to Raster, which also offers IDW, NN interp, and options on how to fill holes. If you want to specifically test Kriging (why), IDW etc, then load the LAS into a point feature and go from there. But also use the LAS dataset tools to do a bit of QC on the LAS first. ... View more
