I am using ArcMap and I have a series of real estate parcels mapped along with a series of wind turbines. I have created multiple buffer rings around each real estate parcel with distances (0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2) miles.
What I am trying to do is determine how many turbines fall within each buffer ring for EVERY real estate parcel. The near tool is almost what I need, but not quite. I am trying to get an output of something like this.
And so on.
Is there a simple tool that can make this happen?
Answer
you can create your buffers, then use the Spatial join tool, with the join one to one option. In addition to the optional field statistics, you will have a count field.
JOIN_ONE_TO_ONE —If multiple join features are found that have the same spatial relationship with a single target feature, the attributes from the multiple join features will be aggregated using a field map merge rule. For example, if a point target feature is found within two separate polygon join features, the attributes from the two polygons will be aggregated before being transferred to the output point feature class. If one polygon has an attribute value of 3 and the other has a value of 7, and a Sum merge rule is specified, the aggregated value in the output feature class will be 10. The JOIN_ONE_TO_ONE option is the default.
Then you join by attribute for each buffer on your real estate parcels.
