Creating Spatial Objects using external lat and lon

RB90
6 - Meteoroid

Hi all,

 

I'm trying to generate a spatial object utilizing latitude and longitudes from an outside source. The lat and lon I'm using do not have decimal points. I have previously been able to utilize similarly formatted information to create a special object; however, I can't in this case.Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get a spatial object created?

 

Thanks!

Hi @RB90 You will want to use the "Create Points" tool and set your fields as integers using the "Fields are Lat/Lon Integers (x 1,000,000)" option.
