Removing string character from Field for FIELD CALCULATOR in ArcGIS
Documenting:
I want to remove String character "m" from the ELEVATION contour shapefile and convert String field to numerical Int or Double to get value of contour for geoprocessing.
In ArcGIS 10.1,
> create a new field containing length of string : "LEN"
> calculate using Feild Calculator String Function len( )
> len ( ELEVATION)
> Double field ELEV can be calculated
> Left( [ELEVATION], [len]-1 )
