Additional Information

Although spatial reference is assigned when importing a 3D model, most of the models use local coordinate/extent. GeoVRML is the only format that has a defined coordinate system. Many 3D models are generated using local coordinate systems that center the XYZ axis on 0, 0, 0. Such features can be georeferenced to real-world coordinates using one of the following methods. See Import 3D Files usage tips. http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/tool-reference/3d-analyst/import-3d-files.htm
