20028: Data source has no spatial reference

There is no spatial reference associated with this data.

Solution

Use the Define Projection geoprocessing tool to define an appropriate spatial reference for your data.

If your layer is a query layer, modify the query layer directly to define a spatial reference.

More information

A spatial reference is required to display your data in the correct geographic location. Without a spatial reference, your data may display in an incorrect location or not at all.

How to identify the coordinate system of a map layer—Each map layer has a data source (such as a feature class, raster dataset, and so on). Right-click a layer in the Contents pane and click Properties. Next, click the Source tab and expand the Spatial Reference panel. The coordinate system details show on this panel.
