Disclaimer: not exactly sure I'll describe this right, but here's how I imagine it happening. Your script executes through Python one line at a time. Line 1 is a comment, Line 2 assigns some value to a variable named mapName, etc. Line 7 assigns a string to a variable named codeBlock. It does not execute the code within that string. I repeat, this is just a string. Line 14 is where all the previous lines come together. Everything is packaged up and sent, somewhat blindly, to a new Python interpreter (not totally sure how to explain this). Everything in codeBlock is sent together. No substitution happened in the codeBlock string. This new Python instance does have the scope to access your main script. It is a separate thing. Once it's done it's thing, it will disappear and return to your original script. In the end, you should be able to solve your problem by substituting the value of the region variable into the codeBlock variable before sending it to CalculateField. Something like: codeBlock = """def Reclass (CUSTNodeID, CUSTRegion):     if CUSTNodeID != None:         return " + region + "     else:         return None""" ... View more

It sounds like you have two issues: 1.) Your numeric field is actually storing more digits than 6, so trying to jam it directly into a string field of length 6 will result in truncation, and/or warnings. 2.) Your expression depends on which parser you use TL;DR - use the round() function, regardless of parser. Say you have some numbers in a double field that are set to display zero decimal places: As Ian Murray describes, the field still holds values: VB Script parser: Expression: [POINT_X] Result: Truncation (warning) Expression: int( [POINT_X] ) Result: Incorrect rounding (truncation) Expression: round( [POINT_X] ) Result: Success! Python Parser: Expression: !POINT_X! Result: Incorrect rounding (truncation) Expression: int(!POINT_X!) Result: Incorrect rounding (truncation) Expression: round( !POINT_X! ) Result: Success! ...

Just to expand on Melita Kennedy​'s comment, you can shift the CRS over by changing the central meridian parameter and saving as a custom projection, in the Data Frame Properties. Original (using Web Mercator, but you can change any CRS): Change CRS in Data Frame Properties: Final: ... View more

Since this is not ArcGIS-specific, you'll have better luck getting an answer on GIS StackExchange. I will also say, when you post this over there, you should expand on your problem. I'm not sure what your question is. ... View more

I haven't come across any way to extract feature class size from within a FGDB using Python, directly. The best workaround I found was to create a new FGDB, copy over each feature class one by one, and monitor the size of the entire FGDB. ... View more
