Gets the type of geometry that this Table is capable of storing. This property only applies to geodatabase
feature classes and shapefiles which are capable of storing vector data.

Field Value
One of the GeometryType values which defines the type of spatial data that the Table can store. IsSpatial must be true to use this property.Examples
The code below opens a file geodatabase feature class, performs a check to ensure that it is
capable of storing vector data then prints out a number of properties including the type of geometry
that can be stored in this Table.
CopyC#
//Open a file geodatabase feature class called mountains Table mountainsTable = Table.OpenFileGeodatabaseTable(@"C:\Data\Scotland.gdb", "mountains"); //Check that the Table can contain vector data if (mountainsTable.IsSpatial == true) //will be true { System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mountainsTable.GeometryType.ToString()); //Prints "Point" System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mountainsTable.CoordinateSystem.Name); //Prints "British_National_Grid" //Print the coordinates that define the bounding box System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mountainsTable.Extent.XMin.ToString()); System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mountainsTable.Extent.YMin.ToString()); System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mountainsTable.Extent.XMax.ToString()); System.Diagnostics.Debug.Print(mountainsTable.Extent.XMax.ToString()); }
