Quick Import (Data Interoperability)

ArcGIS Pro 3.3 | | Help archive

Available with Data Interoperability license.

Summary

Converts data in any format supported by the ArcGIS Data Interoperability extension into feature classes.

The output is stored in a geodatabase. The geodatabase can then be used directly or further post-processing can be performed.

Usage

  • This tool is used to import nonnative data to the ArcGIS environment. The output usually requires additional processing before it can be integrated with existing data or formats.

  • This tool can be used as the first step in a model or script in the ArcGIS framework.

  • The feature classes that are generated depend on the input data. For instance, if you import two MapInfo MIF/MID files, two features classes will be created.

  • This tool honors the geoprocessing overwrite output setting.

  • When in ModelBuilder the feature classes that are generated in the output geodatabase can be accessed using the Select Data tool.

  • This tool creates a default output schema for the geodatabase that is created. If the output requires schema changes, then the Spatial ETL Tool should be used.

  • Bezier curves found in the input are maintained as Bezier curves in the output feature classes.
