Calculating density map of cycleways using fishnet in ArcGIS Desktop?


How can I calculate density map of cycleways (line feature) which refers to net grid in ArcGIS?



Result by using function Line Density in ArcGIS for me is not satisyfing.


I created reference grid net by using Fish net. Now I would like to know how many m or km of cycleways occure in every grid to create density map. I enclose youtube link from QGIS program with result which I would like to achieve in ArcGIS.

Is it possible?



Answer



To do this I would:



  1. Intersect your cycleways and the fishnet

  2. Use Summary Statistics to SUM the lengths of the intersected cycleways by fishnet polygon ID

  3. Use Join Field to join the summed lengths back onto your fishnet using fishnet polygon ID as the join field
