An overview of the Conversion toolset

Available with Production Mapping license.

The Conversion toolset contains tools that convert data between formats used by Esri Mapping and Charting solutions products. Specifically, this toolset contains functionality that moves and imports data for visualization and makes your maps accessible over the web.

Tool	Description
Load Data	Moves features from one schema to another by loading data from a source to a target workspace. Data mapping rules described in a cross-reference database are applied during the load. All Esri Mapping and Charting solutions products install a cross-reference database that you can use. You can create a cross-reference database using the Create Cross-reference tool.
VPF To Geodatabase	Imports VPF data in VMap or DNC formats into a geodatabase. Sources that can be imported include Digital Nautical Chart (DNC), Vector Map (VMap 0, VMap 1, and VMap 2), Urban Vector Map (UVMap), Foundation Feature Data (FFD), and Vector Interim Terrain Data (VITD).
WFS To Geodatabase	Loads data from a WFS service to a file geodatabase that can then be used to create map products.
