Using the Digimap data download service, CodePoint data in .csv format was acquired for the SO50 District. The .csv file was amended; the column ‘Non-domestic_DPs’ was removed due to it containing a non-readable hyphen. The .csv file was then added to ArcMap using ‘add data’. A coordinate system was added via the tools menu and the ‘add XY data’ function. The X field was selected as easting, and Y northing. The British National Grid was chosen as the coordinate system. The table data was then converted to a shape file (.shp) using ‘export data’ and added to ArcMap. The original, now redundant, SO50 .csv file was then removed.
