GeoNames To Geodatabase (Topographic Production)

Zusammenfassung

Loads GeoNames data into a feature class and table. The feature class is composed of point features, and the table contains fields with information concerning the naming conventions used for the features. The feature class contains the Unique Feature Identifier (UFI) and Unique Name Identifier (UNI) fields, which match the same fields in the GeoNames table.

Verwendung

  • This tool is designed to work with downloadable files from the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) Geographic Names Server and defaults to the NGA GeoNames schema.

  • Before loading the GeoNames data into a database, the feature class and table must already exist.

  • If your organization has an existing GeoNames database, you can use it as long as it includes the UFI and UNI fields.
