Geodatabase to Shapefile Warning Tool

The Geodatabase to Shapefile Warning Tool examines feature classes in input file geodatabases for characteristics and data that would be lost or altered if it were transformed into a shapefile. Checks include:<br/>1) large files (feature classes with more than 255 fields or over 2GB), 2) field names longer than 10 characters<br/>string fields longer than 254 characters, 3) date fields with time values 4) NULL values, 5) BLOB, guid, global id, and raster field types, 6) attribute domains or subtypes, and 7) annotation or topology<br/><br/>The results of this inspection are written to a text file ("warning_report_[geodatabase_name]") in the directory where the geodatabase is located. A section at the top provides a list of feature classes and information about the geodatabase as a whole. The report has a section for each valid feature class that returned a warning, with a summary of possible warnings and then more details about issues found.<br/><br/>The tool can process multiple file geodatabases at once. A separate text file report will be created for each geodatabase. The toolbox was created using ArcGIS Pro 3.7.11. <br/><br/>For more information about this and other related tools, explore the <a href="https://github.com/mkernik/geodct">Geospatial Data Curation toolkit</a>
