Creating points with attributes from coordinates in ArcPy
The Next CEO of Stack OverflowPython Script to Add Fields to Feature ClassesHow to create Shapefile on ArcGIS Server side?How to create polylines from a point Feature Class linking all points using arcpyDistance of shape points from given lat-longCreating multiple shapefiles from one date within same for loop using ArcPy?Creating point feature from dictionary in ArcPy?Use UpdateCursor in combination with .distanceTo method in ArcPyFrom List into ArcPy Feature Class with InsertCursorGetting (X,Y) projected coordinates of point instead of its longitude and latitude in ArcPy?Measuring distance to two Points in ArcPy?
I know how to create points by coordinates with arcpy using the following code:
import arcpy
ptList =[[20.000,43.000],[25.500, 45.085],[26.574, 46.025], [28.131, 48.124]]
pt = arcpy.Point()
ptGeoms = []
for p in ptList:
pt.X = p[0]
pt.Y = p[1]
ptGeoms.append(arcpy.PointGeometry(pt))
arcpy.CopyFeatures_management(ptGeoms, r"C:Temptest.shp")
But in my case, every coordinate pair also has an additional text attribute that needs to be written to the shapefile. What would be the approach?

Always use the SpatialReference parameter when constructing PointGeometry from Point, or you risk losing precision during construction.

I suggest to use insert cursor, make sure that the field allready exists in the feature class (AddField if necessary)
ptList =[["value1",(20.000,43.000)],["value2",(25.500, 45.085)],["value3",(26.574, 46.025)], ["value4",(28.131, 48.124)]]
cursor = arcpy.da.InsertCursor('C:/temp/test.shp',
['FieldName', 'SHAPE@XY'])
# Insert new rows that include the field value and a x,y coordinate
for row in ptList:
cursor.insertRow(row)
# Delete cursor object
del cursor
