HOW TO
Batch geoprocessing can be useful when it is necessary to add certain attributes to many feature classes at once or when using a query expression to edit fields across multiple feature classes.
In this example, a new calculated field, area in square meters, is added to two feature classes, us_lakes and states. This new field uses a query expression to convert areas from square feet.
Note:
The schema of the fields to be edited in the feature classes must be the same, i.e., their Field Name, Data Type, Length (if using Text Datatype), and so forth.
