arcgis desktop - Extracting coordinates of polygon vertices in ArcMap?


I've got about a dozen polygons in a feature class loaded in ArcMap 10, all in geographic WGS 1984.


How do I easily obtain the coordinates associated with each vertex of each polygon in that feature class?


Ideally I would like them to be nicely tabulated in spreadsheet format.



Answer



Use the Feature Vertices To Points tool within ArcToolbox or if you do not have Advanced license then you may use the Polygon to Point tool from ET GeoWizard (free tool). Finally, in ArcMap use the Add XY Coordinates tool to generate the XY value for each vertex and use Table to Excel to generate a spreadsheet.
