An overview of the Conversion toolset

The Conversion toolset contains tools that are used to convert tabular data to features and to convert between coordinate notation formats. These tools create 2-point lines, ellipses, lines of bearing, points, polygons, and polylines that can be stored in a feature class.

Various feature shapes and sizes can be represented with tabular data.
