arcgis desktop - Controlling XY Resolution on file geodatabase feature class output from Append?


This question arises from research into Appending polygon feature classes with already repaired geometry => WARNING 000442: self intersections from Check Geometry?


Before running the code snippet below the properties of feature class rwc_aurukun show:


enter image description here


inputFileGDB = 
arcpy.env.workspace = inputFileGDB

fcList =
arcpy.CreateFeatureclass_management(inputFileGDB,"RWC","POLYGON",fcList[0])
coord_sys = arcpy.Describe(fcList[0]).spatialReference
arcpy.DefineProjection_management("RWC", coord_sys)
arcpy.env.XYDomain ="-180 -90 180 90"
arcpy.env.XYTolerance = "0.000000001 DecimalDegrees"
arcpy.Append_management(fcList,"RWC","NO_TEST")

After running the code snippet the properties of feature class RWC (which is 88 feature classes appended - including rwc_aurukun) show:


enter image description here



How can I control the XY Resolution on the output feature class (RWC)?


My experimentation with arcpy.env.XYDomain and arcpy.env.XYTolerance are not achieving the result that I am after.



Answer



Using @Vince's answer to the earlier question I am gaining some control.


My code now reads:


inputFileGDB = 
arcpy.env.workspace = inputFileGDB
fcList =
sr = arcpy.Describe(fcList[0]).spatialReference
sr.setFalseOriginAndUnits(-400.0,-400.0,10000000.0) # from Vince

arcpy.CreateFeatureclass_management(inputFileGDB,"RWC","POLYGON",fcList[0],"SAME_AS_TEMPLATE","SAME_AS_TEMPLATE",sr)
arcpy.Append_management(fcList,"RWC","NO_TEST")

and the properties of the RWC feature class are now:

The only glitch is that 25 self intersections still remain but these now seem tiny and after a Repair Geometry were gone.

Adding one more zero in the code above to make the line below resulted in the appended feature class having no geometry errors.


sr.setFalseOriginAndUnits(-400.0,-400.0,100000000.0)
