000594: Input feature <value>: <value>.

Description

The specific input feature requires attention. This can occur for the following reasons:

  • An input feature being processed is positioned outside of the current Output XY Domain environment. The Output XY Domain environment sets the allowable coordinate range for x,y coordinates. If a feature falls outside this range, it cannot be added to the output. In addition, for tools that have a target dataset, such as Append, if the features of the input fall outside the Output XY Domain of the target, they also will not be added. Similarly, the Output M Domain and Output Z Domain environments limit the coordinate range for m- and z-coordinates.

  • An input feature may not be able to be processed because the output dataset has reached the maximum number of records or file size. For example, shapefiles are limited to 2 GB in size, so the error can be raised when trying to write an input feature to a shapefile that has reached the maximum size.

Solution

Review the Output XY Domain, Output M Domain, and Output Z Domain environment values, and reset them to Same as Input if they are too restrictive. When using a tool such as Append, check the coordinate system of the target dataset, and if unknown, define a coordinate system for the feature class. Also, consider creating a feature class with a broader x,y domain if the current x,y domain is too restrictive.

Use a different output format than shapefile, or process fewer records to produce a smaller output dataset.
