HOW TO
A schema defines the physical structure of the geodatabase along with rules, relationships, and properties of each dataset in the geodatabase. Schemas can be imported from a feature class to another feature class to maintain the structure of the database. The instructions provided describe how to import the schema from one feature class to another feature class.
This option is suitable if wanting to copy a schema to a feature class that resides in the same geodatabase to avoid the existing domain to be re-created. However, this method does not import the relationship classes.
Note: If the data contains 3D data, check the Coordinates include Z values. Used to store 3D data. check box.
Note: If the new feature class contains Z values, leave the coordinate system for Z coordinates to default, and click Next.
