Hi all, I'm using ArcGIS Pro licensed with spatial analyst.
The dataset is about ~100 points/GPS coordinates. I want to calculate the nearest neighbor distance (euclidean) for each point in the dataset but am having difficulty finding a way to automate this.
The Nearest Neighbor Analysis tool takes all points in the dataset and returns an observed and expected value based off the euclidean distances for all points in the feature class. But I want to know what the nearest neighbor distance is for each point. I found the Calculate Distance Band from Neighbor Count Tool, which sounded promising because it returns the mininum, maximum, and average distances but again it does it for the dataset as a whole and only returns one set of values.
Is there a tool to automate calculating what the minimum distances are between every point within the dataset? I recognize there will not be unique values for every point (e.g., the nearest distance for point A and B might be identical if clustered closer together than other points) but I still am interested in getting this metric for each point in the dataset.
Thank you in advance for your feedback.
