The ptGeometry item should have a spatial reference; it should not be null (Line 7 in the first code block in your previous message).

Test for XY inside Polygon

jaykapalczynski

Im trying to do this and stuck

Take a JSON string with address and distance set those to variables
Geocode the Address to get an XY and set those to Variables
Buffer a polygon of the state using the distance variable created from the DataInput JSON
Define the State Boundary
Buffer the State Boundary and set into memory
Test ot see if the point is within that Buffered State Boundary
Return True if its within and False if Outside the Buffered State Boundary

ERROR:

The ptGeometry item should have a spatial reference; it should not be null (Line 7 in the first code block in your previous message). I think the first parameter in SelectLayerByLocation should be a feature layer, and ptGeometry (which is only geometry for a point) is not a feature. I have been experimenting with some code in the Python window of Desktop 10.5 that may help you get the geocoding address coordinates into point geometry and then into a feature. The test code did create a point feature and it appears to be correctly located using the Streets basemap (and Google Maps). Here's my test code:

OK I think I am understanding now....so I would just read in my geometry....

Do I have this correct....

read in my Polygons coordinates instead of the squares XYs
create the array from list of coords
create my point with my XY coordinates
Test and point.within(polygon) will return true if within and false if outside

As Blake suggests, since you have a mix of geometry origins (json, arcpy), and your query is essentially simple, it makes less sense now to be creating a bunch of featureclasses and/or featurelayers. Just get the geometry at its root (that is, arcpy geometry objects) and do the check. You basically need a boolean... if True, then do something, if False, move on

blake.terhune

I think he's referring to the within() method for Geometry objects.

I am interested in this approach...is there a better example? Trying to get a better understanding of this.

Another approach...

The Spatial Join (Analysis) will compute distances in certain cases. As a test, a Virginia layer (containing only one feature - an outline of the state in UTM Zone 17N) was opened in Desktop 10.5. I geocoded the two addresses previously used with some others that lie in and outside the state. I pasted code into the Python window, ran the spatial join and had the following results:

The DistanceTo field was generated by the spatial join. A distance of 0 indicates the point is inside the state. If it lies outside, a distance in meters is calculated. This distance can be compared to the buffer in the Distance field. If the DistanceTo is less than the Distance buffer, the point is within the buffer. A select layer by attribute can use this in a where clause.

Here's the test code, which may need modification depending on your settings or if run outside ArcMap. In_memory was used in creating the points and spatialJoin layers, so they should be deleted at some point.

Why not make things easier and get the geometry objects for both. Then you don't have to make featurelayers etc etc

As an example, a point geometry being tested against a polygon

You can project geometry if needed. To find out more, just do a 'dir' on the objects

OK ... Puzzled here....I can get this to work if I reference the point that is in a Feature Class but

I cannot get it to work with the result from my Geocoded address and resulting XY

My original address that is geocoded is WGS84 I convert that to UTM Nad83 Zone 17N (26917)

The state State layer is stored in UTM Nad83 Zone17N (26917) Meters

The input from the parameters is Miles and I am converting that distance to Meters.

I know the distance thing is working because I can test that against a Point that is outside the state in a Feature Class and increase that distance and it eventually finds it...

Any thoughts as to why the Geocoded result is not being found...I am converting this to the Appropriate Spatial Reference.....ugggggg

This Does NOT work

If I do the below I am getting this error thrown back at me....

Maybe I should project all my data and use a different coord system?

I assume BufferGeom is the polygon layer, so perhaps something like:

dan patterson‌ OK I got it working but it seems the issue is around the point feature that I am creating from the Geocoded results...

Any thoughts? The data is in WGS84

If I point this to a point Feature Class as such this WORKS

NAH that did not work....but at least the polygon state layer is WGS84 and the point being geocoded is output in WGS 84 so thats on the same page but I never return any features.....

Woke up at 3am and it dawned on my that I might be having issues with the projection of the Feature Class and the Point created from the Geocode...think once I fix that it might work....testing that this morning.

OK that removed the error and an oversight by me.....thanks for the eyes....

For some reason I am getting true for any address....I think my code to test if its in or not is not working correctly.

If I put in an address for Wyoming it returns true....I set the variable to false at the beginning but for some reason I get a count from the results variable either way....

Any ideas where this test for the result is wrong?
