Dealing with an Incorrectly Defined Coordinate System in ArcGIS Pro

[@trippcorbin8850]

Great video. One of the most common problems I encounter when trying to bring in data sets from multiple organizations or departments.

Used this tip in March 2022 and still works perfectly!!

Liked because when I followed the steps in your tutorial, I was able to replicate the result and it solved my problem; simple and well made content. Thanks!

[@patrickcampbell4403]

Thanks for the video! If the correct coordinate system doesn't match that of your map, however, won't redefining the coordinate system as unknown result in a projection outside your map area? At that point, how would you confirm the correct coordinate system of the non-matching feature layer?

that was my question too , he is always depends on sense ^_^

[@elnazm.a2450]

I'm having the same problem with my file, I did the way you have mentioned (interesting to know how to erase a coordinate system on a file!), but the file still sits somewhere else (in a wrong location). I've tried through ArcGIS and ArcMap multiple times!

[@karagrace5607]

same :(

[@elnazm.a2450]

@@karagrace5607 Hi Kara, I'm not sure if you could have solved the issue, but I figured it out with a georeferenced image of the site and the dwg file imported into Vectorworks.

How do I keep two coordinate systems in ArcGIS Pro?

[@navanroy7225]

Similar approach when i apply for a raster data, it does not work. Any workaround? for incorrectly defined raster data set how to define correct projection?

[@heyzel302]

My problem, too :(

Convert to polygons first > then apply Jarlaths solution?

I get the error 000523: unkown coordinate system for output dataset.. version 3.1.1

Thank you, sir. This was a huge help!

Life saving information! Thank you!

[@edwintmarsel8029]

Can't you just use the CS for the NHPolDist? Or am I missing something? Thank you.

[@joneildunne]

In this case, yes, but using an existing layer’s CS certainly won’t work all the time

[@pythonGIS]

Fantastic explanation!

[@jayso06]

Greate video, but after defining as "unknown," the program still puts the data outside of my map. Any suggestions?

[@joneildunne]

jayso06 you defined it incorrectly

[@jayso06]

@@joneildunne I ended up having to use ArcMap and then transfer it to ARCGIS Pro because for whatever reason, ARCGIS Pro didn't want to cooperate. Thanks anyways!

You saved my life man!

[@omerfarukelma9320]

it didn't work on my raster data :(

Great video. KUDOS

Many thanks .great vedio, i got the point.

[@yorkshire_tea_innit8097]

I though I was missing something because this should be as simple as right click properties, but no.

Thank You!
