Creating Simulated Track Feeds for GES

Create line feature class w/ whatever fields you want (e.g. unit type, name)
Draw lines wherever you want tracks for each unit simulated
Name each line
Run “Generate Points Along Line”
Calculate geometry for points to add x and y field, GCS_WSG_1984 coordinate system to get proper decimal degrees
Add sequence field

Calculate sequence

autoIncrement()

rec=0
def autoIncrement():
  global rec
  pStart = 1  # adjust start value, if req'd 
  pInterval = 1  # adjust interval value, if req'd
  if (rec == 0): 
      rec = pStart 
  else: 
      rec = rec + pInterval 
  return rec

Run Table to Table to kick it out as a csv (use field map to remove unwanted fields)

Use powershell to sort the csv by the sequential field

Import-Csv .\MCO_LEO_TrackPoints.csv | Sort-Object seq | Export-Csv .\MCO_LEO_TrackPointsSort.csv -NoTypeInformation

Load csv into geoevent simulator
