arcgis.env module¶
The env module provides a shared environment used by the different modules. It stores globals such as the currently active GIS, the default geocoder and so on. It also stores environment settings that are common among all geoprocessing tools, such as the output spatial reference.
active_gis¶
-
arcgis.env.active_gis¶
The currently active GIS, that is used for analysis functions unless explicitly specified when calling the functions. Creating a new GIS object makes it active unless set_active=False is passed in the GIS constructor.
analysis_extent¶
-
arcgis.env.analysis_extent¶
The processing extent used by analysis tools, specified as an arcgis.geometry.Envelope.
out_spatial_reference¶
-
arcgis.env.out_spatial_reference¶
The spatial reference of the output geometries. If not specified, the output geometries are in the spatial reference of the input geometries. If process_spatial_reference is specified and out_spatial_reference is not specified, the output geometries are in the spatial reference of the process spatial reference.
process_spatial_reference¶
-
arcgis.env.process_spatial_reference¶
The spatial reference that the geoprocessor will use to perform geometry operations. If specified and out_spatial_reference is not specified, the output geometries are in the spatial reference of the process spatial reference.
return_z¶
-
arcgis.env.return_z¶
If true, Z values will be included in the geoprocessing results if the features have Z values. Otherwise Z values are not returned. The default is False.
