Point to Raster is not working for me. What is odd is that there is no error message. In fact, there are not messages at all.  The "Results" show as if the tool worked, but there is no raster created, and viewing the messages shows a blank.  I have tried various things to work around the problem: 1. Changing the z valued used from double to float, to integer 2. Changing the format of the output from file geodatabase to tif 3. Changing the format of the input points from file geodatabase to shapefile 4. Changing the cell size larger and smaller I am running this command in ArcMap 10.7 The input points (in the shapefile format) are attached. I have used this before, but I just recently upgraded to 10.7 and I wonder if that is where the problem lies? ... View more

The following code: arcpy.AddMessage("shape of zOutput {} ".format(zOutput.shape)) arcpy.AddMessage("no of dimensions of zOutput {}".format(zOutput.ndim)) # Convert array to a geodatabase raster myRaster = arcpy.NumPyArrayToRaster(zOutput, arcpy.Point(xmin,ymin), cellsize, cellsize, -999999) produces the following output. As you can see the numpy array IS two dimensional. Yet NumPyArrayToRaster fails. shape of zOutput (375, 524) no of dimensions of zOutput 2 ... ValueError: Argument in_array: A two or three dimensional NumPy array is required. Is this a bug in NumPyToRaster?  Is there some other way to export a numpy array to a raster? ... View more

There appear to be issues with Arcpy exporting maps with annotation to PDF, JPG, etc.  Sometimes the annotation gets exported with the map, sometimes it does not.  I have checked the scale dependencies (there are none for the annotation), the fonts (it is just plain Arial), and everything else that I can think of. What is really curious is that if I run the exact same code in the Python window in ArcMap, it does export all the annotation. If I run it outside of ArcMap, it does not.  There are no error messages, or any other indications of issues. This is really annoying and I have spent quite a few hours messing with this.  This is with ArcGIS Desktop 10.5.1 version. ... View more

Just for fun, and because I just spent a week in Iceland on vacation (awesome place!) I pulled some quake data from the Iceland Meterologic site and displayed the recent quake swarm under the Barðarbunga volcano in ArcScene as a time series.  At the time (about 5pm Iceland time on 19-Aug-2014) there were 1,600 quakes in the last three days.  In this series it appears to me that they are starting to focus in a vertical column which could indicate magma movements towards the surface.  I have attached the ArcScene (v10.0) project with a file GDB of the data, and a georeference image of the surface.  Could be interesting soon. Note: the data is available here: http://en.vedur.is/earthquakes-and-volcanism/earthquakes/vatnajokull/#view=map And there is a pretty cool visualization on the web here: http://baering.github.io/  (NOTE: This does not seem to work in IE, but does in Chrome)  Way easier that ArcScene... ...

I've tried to set the proxy server in the AGX options thinking that might be the problem but Find still never finds anything. Any ideas on what is wrong.  Other than Find not working, build 1200 looks pretty nice. Charles ... View more
