The General toolset contains tools for performing general data management operations. The toolset contains tools for combining feature classes or tables; renaming, copying, or deleting datasets; finding or deleting duplicate or identical records; sorting records; and tools that enhance ModelBuilder functionality.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
Analyzes Python scripts and custom geoprocessing tools and toolboxes for functionality that is not supported in ArcGIS Pro. | |
Appends multiple input datasets into an existing target dataset. Input datasets can be point, line, or polygon feature classes, tables, rasters, raster catalogs, annotation feature classes, or dimensions feature classes. | |
Calculate Value tool returns a value based on a specified Python expression. | |
Copies input data on disk and pastes the output to the same or another location. The data type of the input and output data element is identical. | |
Creates a view in a database based on an SQL expression. | |
Permanently deletes data from disk. All types of geographic data supported by ArcGIS, as well as toolboxes and workspaces (folders, geodatabases), can be deleted. If the specified item is a workspace, all contained items are also deleted. | |
Deletes records in a feature class or table which have identical values in a list of fields. If the field Shape is selected, feature geometries are compared. | |
Reports any records in a feature class or table that have identical values in a list of fields, and generates a table listing these identical records. If the field Shape is selected, feature geometries are compared. | |
Changes the name of a dataset. This includes a wide variety of data types, among them feature dataset, raster, table, and shapefile. | |
Combines multiple input datasets of the same data type into a single, new output dataset. This tool can combine point, line, or polygon feature classes or tables. | |
The Merge Branch tool merges two or more logical branches into a single output. | |
The Select Data tool selects data in a parent data element such as a folder, geodatabase, feature dataset, or coverage. | |
Reorders, in ascending or descending order, records in a feature class or table based on one or multiple fields. The reordered result is written to a new dataset. |
