Export Incident CSV

Summary

Exports an incident layer to a CSV file in the format required by the Near Repeat Calculator.

Usage

  • Input features must use a projected coordinate system. This coordinate system will be used to generate coordinate values for each incident in the output CSV.
  • Each incident must have a value in the specified date field.
  • The output CSV does not contain any field headers as these are not supported by the Near Repeat Calculator. The output fields are, in order: X, Y, Date.

Parameters

Parameter Explanation Data Type
Input Feature Class Feature class containing points representing the location of incidents. The data contained in the features class will typically cover a long time period (for example, one year). The feature class must have a date field (in date format) and all features must have date values. The feature class must use a projected coordinate system. Feature Layer
Date Field The field in the Input Feature Class containing the date on which each incident occurred. If the date of the incident spans a range (for example, date information is recorded in two fields representing from and to dates), choose the date field you consider to be most appropriate. This will usually be the date at the beginning of the date range. Field
Output Spreadsheet Location The projected coordinates and date value for each feature will be written to a CSV file in this directory for use in the Near Repeat Calculator. Folder
Output Spreadsheet Name The name of the CSV file that will be created. String
