space time cube memory error

[LizGoldman1]

Hi All,

I'm running into an error for the Create Space Time Cube tool. It says "File 'C:\Program Files (x86)|ArcGIS\Desktop10.5\ArcToolBox\Scripts\SSDataObject.py", line 535, in obtainDataGA self.master2Order[masterID] = row MemoryError."

My point file is quite large - 23.3 million records and over 2gb, it is stored in a file geodatabase. Any ideas on how to get around this? I'm using the prerelease of v10.5.

unless they switched the version of python and made 10.5 64 bit, you are still limited to memory use.  

See the Pro documentation that indicates that there were some changes in Pro 1.3 and arcmap 10.5

I would try it in Pro as well to overcome memory issues
