GeoNames To Geodatabase (Topographic Production)

Resumen

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), which match the same fields in the GeoNames table.

Uso

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

  • If your organization already has a GeoNames database, this database may be used as long as it contains the UFI and UNI fields.
