Setup Customers Using XY Data (Business Analyst)
Résumé
Transforms x,y (latitude-longitude) coordinate data into a customer layer.
Usage
-
This tool allows you to create a customer layer based on x and y columns from an input table.
-
To add a table of x,y coordinates to your map, the table must contain two fields: x-coordinates (longitude) and y-coordinates (latitude).
-
Latitude and longitude coordinates that are in degrees, minutes, seconds (DMS) format must be converted to decimal degrees before using this tool.
-
If using latitude and longitude coordinates, verify that the latitude is a positive integer and the longitude is a negative integer.
-
Many forms of GPS-collected data will contain x,y coordinates. You can use this tool to convert GPS-collected data into customers.
-
If your x,y data is stored in a relational database such as Access, it can be accessed through this tool using the Database Connections wizard in ArcCatalog.
-
This setup tool does not generate a feature class; it generates an x,y event layer.
