Hello All,
I am not able to find a tool (or function) that would add geographic coordinates say DD or DMS to a shape file that is in UTM (or other projected systems). When I add a field and calculate using the !shape.extent! in the window, I get only the UTM coordinates. When I use the ADDXY tool, the same.
How can I add additional geographic coordinates to the shape file without re-projecting the datasets?
Thanks,
Samuel Rajasekhar
