Identifying FRONT LAND using ArcGIS ModelBuilder


I work at a town hall. I need to identify the front of the land. Here in my country we call it of "TESTADA" or "FRENTE DE LOTE". I did not find the exact term in English.


THE FRONT OF A LAND is a line near the entrance to the ground. That is, is the entry of a house. It is where the entrance gate, with the port number. To exemplify following image below.


Map before: before


Map later with the front lines of terrain - As should be: after


A LOT has only one FRONT OF LAND. In corners it's main street. There are old buildings that will stay as they are because it is historic. Currently we do these lines of FRONT LAND manually. We would like to automate part of it. That could be using ModelBuilder.


In short:




  • In: LAYER OF LAND, LAYER STREET, BUILDING LAYER.

  • Output: LAYER with FRONTS OF LAND LINES.


Another example of front lot: The term FRONT OF LAND refers to front of property.The input of the house is his front. enter image description here
