Your code runs fine for me, referencing a shapefile. It adds the layer to the TOC. newlayer = arcpy.mapping.Layer(r'C:\junk\points.shp') Just make sure you're writing a proper Python path (like above). ... View more

The Raster to Point tool will create a point for each pixel in the raster. If that creates too many points, then there are too many pixels. If you want fewer points, make a raster with fewer pixels. edit: what exactly are you trying to achieve and are you sure you can't do it completely with rasters? ... View more

That is the Raster to Point tool. ... View more

^ This is directly copy and pasted from here (arcmap - What are the units of the calculated area from a raster in decimal degree - Geographic Information Systems Stac…), which is why it makes absolutely no sense in this context. ... View more

Is the 30 actually in the data, or just listed as the upper limit in the symbology? ... View more

As an alternative to numpy*, you can do something like this in the field calculator or using an update cursor. This is only lightly tested, and I'm sure you'll find some gotchas along the way. Code block- Python parser: def myFunc(amt, f2, f5, f10, f100, f1000):   vals = [f2, f5, f10, f100, f1000] # hardcoded   years = [2, 5, 10, 100, 1000] # hardcoded   for i in range(len(vals)): # loop through potential values     if amt < vals: # check if the amount is less than the currently evaluated field       low_yr = years # small year in range       high_yr = years[i+1] # large year in range       low_val = vals # low value in range       high_val = vals[i+1] # high value in range       prop = (amt-low_val)/(high_val - low_val) # proportional amount in range       recur = (prop * (high_yr - low_yr)) + low_yr # proportional year in range       return recur # return the recurrence year       break # stop evaluating other fields Expression: myFunc( !appt_allsi!, !wy_24h0002!, !wy_24h0005!, !wy_24h0010!, !wy_24h0100!, !wy_24h1000! ) *learning numpy for a one-off is cruel and unusual punishment, IMO. ...

I use PyScripter for no reason other than it's free and does everything I ask of it. ... View more

Are you looking for a perpendicular line (90 degrees to the line, as I've added below) or a vertical line (as you've drawn)? ... View more

Then, dissolve. ... View more

This sounds like a job for Dissolve (or Summary Statistics if you're only interested in the attributes, not geometry). ... View more

Meter is the base unit. Lengths will be reported in meters, areas in square meters, volume in cubic meters, and hyperspatial regions to higher powers (in exponential units of meters). Likewise if the unit is feet. With that said, the units reported within a feature class' attribute table are generally calculated according to the feature class coordinate reference system's linear unit, not the data frame's reference system. ...

Search for "Alberta 10tm" for the standard Alberta-wide traverse Mercator projection. It doesn't come out of the box, so you'll have to make it custom. ... View more
