Create Points from Table using ArcGIS Pro

A feature class is a term commonly used in geographic information systems (GIS) and spatial databases. It refers to a collection of geographic features, such as points, lines, or polygons, that share the same spatial representation and attributes. Each feature in a feature class typically represents a real-world entity, such as a city, road, or parcel of land.
Feature classes are fundamental components of GIS data organization and are used to store and manage spatial data. They allow GIS users to organize, query, analyze, and visualize geographic information efficiently. Feature classes often have associated attribute tables that store additional information about the features, such as names, IDs, or descriptive attributes.
In GIS software such as Esri's ArcGIS or open-source platforms like QGIS, feature classes are used extensively for tasks such as map creation, spatial analysis, and decision-making in various fields including urban planning, environmental management, and natural resource exploration.
