      com.esri.arcgis.geoprocessing.tools.datamanagementtools.FeatureToPoint

All Implemented Interfaces:

GPTool

public class FeatureToPoint
extends AbstractGPTool

Creates a point The Feature To Point tool is contained in the Data Management Tools tool box.

Software restrictions: ArcInfo only

Illustration:

Usage tips:

• The ORIG_FID field will be added to the Output Feature Class and will be set to the Input Feature's FID.
• For line features that have true curves, if Inside is checked in the tool dialog or set to "INSIDE" in command line, the output point will be at the midpoint of the line.
• Learn more about spatial reference and geoprocessing;
• The following environment settings affect this tool: Coordinate system; Extent; XY Tolerance; Z Tolerance; M Tolerance; XY Resolution; Z Resolution; M Resolution; Output XY domain; Output Z domain; Output M domain; Output has M values; Output has Z values; Default Z value; Configuration keyword; Output Spatial Grid;
