Converting CSV with LineString into shapefile using ArcGIS Desktop?

Question

I have a CSV which I've imported into ArcGIS Desktop, and it contains a Linestring column.

How do I convert it into a shapefile?

Example of what one of the fields contain below:

[[51.53878768021, -0.01805397057],[51.53878865403, -0.01811160963],

Answer 1

You can use arcpy's Geometry() classes:

coords = [[51.53878768021, -0.01805397057],[51.53878865403, -0.01811160963],[51.5393377751, -0.01814543493],[51.53936448971, -0.0181298538],[51.54012998282, -0.01766397309],[51.54065187717, -0.0171509813],[51.54082063461, -0.01649470118],[51.54057432587, -0.01575552408],[51.54042543071, -0.01545916271],[51.54022213116, -0.01513632888],[51.53982939314, -0.01477847997],[51.54004741802, -0.01384606376],[51.54013064554, -0.01291951037],[51.54015613891, -0.01283187515],[51.54036833688, -0.01208716771],[51.54207215087, -0.00862388496],[51.54215106745, -0.00850506822],[51.54274424885, -0.00742639128],[51.54273732937, -0.00490291103],[51.54273994243, -0.00452783466],[51.54280308915, -0.00453949369],[51.54287669256, -0.00463722526],[51.54334224557, -0.00451590589],[51.54334224557, -0.00451590589],[51.54333154362, -0.00441542146],[51.54335580468, -0.00425572003],[51.54355300498, -0.00421824756],[51.54375094078, -0.00422400837],[51.54396660328, -0.00421457153],[51.54396586774, -0.00417133769]]

geom = arcpy.Polyline(arcpy.Array([arcpy.Point(*c) for c in coords]))

arcpy.CopyFeatures_management(geom, r'C:\example\some_shape.shp')
