Hello GeoNet, I am working with a colleague. I have some experience with Pro.  My colleague stated that up until today she was able to locate a point using x,y coordinates. Today, upon trying to repeat the process the tool did not work. Any suggestions? Does the tool work for various systems used to represent lat/lon or do we need to input a specific coordinate format/system? Thanks. Doug ... View more

How would one compare the properties of two layers simultaneously? When I select the properties of a layer either in catalog or once added to an MXD, I cannot open the properties of a second layer for cross referencing. Suggestions? ... View more

Thanks and maybe there are two questions in this situation. I am not sure if the datum conflict is causing the unexpected watershed model or if there is something else I am doing wrong in the process. In the process of creating a watershed for a lake, see images, I received the datum conflict warning 001003. Reading notes on the warning, it would appear that it can be ignored but...is that always or only in some processing situation? Ignoring the warning, I continued the watershed modeling steps and on two occasions the watershed extends beyond/downstream of the pour point I placed at the lake outlet; see image.  What is causing the watershed to extend beyond the pour point? My understanding is that all the watershed should define a surface that flows into the lake and therefore all the water in the watershed would flow out the lake at the downstream point/pour point. ...

Can anyone take a look at the workflow I am using, see screenshot of Results and TOC, and explain why I cannot get past the Snap Pour step as explained by esri on the following page...How To: Create a watershed model using the Hydrology toolset  I can create fill, flow direction, flow accumulation layers/shapefiles but I cannot complete the watershed steps because Snap Pour never completes processing. See attached image. ... View more

I am trying to create a watershed around a small lake. I clipped the DEM down from the size of a county to about 6000 meters x 3500 meters. I followed the following steps per esri (How To: Create a watershed model using the Hydrology toolset ) Step 1: fill - input DEM clipped to 6000x3500m Step 2: flow direction - input fill created from step 1 Step 3: flow accumulation input flow direction from step 2 All the above steps work fine... Per esri: ther input a point feature class or a raster as the 'Input raster or feature pour point data'. Step 4: I input the original dem (clipped to 6000x3500 m) and input the flow accumulation (step 3 result) per steps - see link above I set the snap distance to 1000 (m) hoping that the larger the snap the shorter the running time as I tried smaller values previous and the processing took hours/ not minutes or seconds. Image shows screenshot of results and TOC.   Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. ... View more
