Available in real-time and big data analytics.
The Project tool 
projects input data to a specified spatial reference through a well-known ID (WKID) or well-known text (WKT).
Examples
The following are example use cases for the tool:
- As a data analyst, you want to change the spatial reference of millions of records of data in delimited text files stored in the cloud. Using this tool, you can change the spatial reference using a WKID or WKT.
- As a transportation planner, you want to write the output of your analysis in your local state plane coordinate system. To do this, the data can be projected either before or after the analysis steps.
- As a city GIS analyst, you want to change the spatial reference of each record ingested from mobile sensors.
Usage note
When an analytic is configured to write to a feature layer output, the output data always projects to 4326 for storage (the WKID for World Geodetic System WGS84).
Parameters
The following are the parameters for the tool:
| Parameter | Description | Data type |
|---|---|---|
| Input layer | The point, line, or polygon features to project. | Features |
| Spatial reference | The spatial reference of the output geometry. You can choose the spatial reference to project your data using either a WKID or WKT. | String |
Output layer
The output layer has the same schema as the input layer.
