An overview of the To Geodatabase toolset
The geodatabase toolset contains tools to convert and write data to a geodatabase.
Tool |
Description |
---|---|
Reads a CAD dataset and creates feature classes of the drawing. The feature classes are written to a geodatabase feature dataset. |
|
Converts a shapefile, coverage feature class, or geodatabase feature class to a shapefile or geodatabase feature class. |
|
Converts one or more feature classes or feature layers to geodatabase feature classes. |
|
Converts a collection of CAD annotation features to geodatabase annotation. You can convert each level to individual annotation classes or merge them into a single class. Also, if you choose map layers as input, the level and font overrides will be honored. |

Converts a collection of coverage annotation features to geodatabase annotation. You can convert each level to individual annotation classes or merge them into a single class. Also, if you choose map layers as input, the level and font overrides will be honored. |
|
Loads multiple raster datasets into a geodatabase or raster catalog. |
|
Converts one or more tables to geodatabase tables in an output personal, file, or SDE geodatabase. The inputs can be dBASE, INFO, VPF, OLE DB tables, or geodatabase tables, or table views. |
|
Converts an input table to a dBASE or geodatabase table. |

Import From CAD |
Use the Feature_Class_To_Feature_Class tool to import individual CAD feature classes. Use the CAD To Geodatabase tool to load multiple CAD drawing datasets. |
