Command line syntax
ET_GPPointGridOrigin <out_feature_class> {out_spatial_reference} <grid_type> <x_origin> <y_origin> <number_columns> <number_rows> <column_width> {row_height}
Parameters
| Expression | Explanation |
|---|---|
| <out_feature class> | A String - the full name of the output feature class (A feature class with the same full name should not exist) |
| {out_spatial_reference} | The spatial reference of the output feature class. If not specified the output will be created with Unknown coordinate system |
| <grid_type> | A String controlling the type of the output point grid. Valid values "Square", "Rectangle" or " Triangle" |
| <x_origin> | A Double representing the X coordinate of the lower left point of the grid. |
| <y_origin> | A Double representing the Y coordinate of the lower left point of the grid. |
| <number_columns> | A Long representing the number of columns that the resulting grid will have |
| <number_rows> | A Long representing the number of rows that the resulting grid will have |
| <column_width> | A Double representing the the width of each grid column (X - cell size) |
| {row_height} | A Double representing the the height of each grid column (Y - cell size). Needed only for a "Rectangle" type grid. If not used row_height = column_width will be assigned. |
