I have a polygon layer. I extracted the coordinates of vertices, and now I need to add these coordinates in each polygon. The final shapefile should have an attribute table as follows:

enter image description here

where X1, X2, etc.. are the vertices coordinates for each polygon.

Any ideas on how to do this using ArcGIS for Desktop?

    Are you prepared to script it? There is a points to line function which can be polygonized with Feature to Polygon (Advanced license). @Vince is correct 4 points is a triangle as a polygon has the start/end at the same location, if these are boxes/trapezoids you will need to duplicate the first to the last vertex to close it (both arcpy and PyQGIS). I have some arcpy code that could be modified to suit.. but which is it, QGIS or arcgis-desktop? you have both tags; is it that you have both and will accept a solution in either? – Michael Stimson Jul 21 '15 at 21:39
  • @GrantHumphries I think you should post it on the duplicate question instead, but make sure that you start the answer there by stating something like "This specifically addresses the requirements of http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/155318/insert-vertices-coordinates-in-polygon", and then ping me again. My plan is to Merge the two questions so that we can later tidy them up into a more canonical Q&A. – PolyGeo Jul 21 '15 at 22:38
