Hi,

I´ve installed patch analyst successfully. My problem is that it takes too long to run ( nearly a day now. My computer has a RAM of 16GB. Does anyone have any idea the best way to solve this? Need to run 9 different sites, but the only one takes this long, I wonder if I can achieve the results.

Thanks so much.

Hi Polash

Where did you find the patch analyst plug in? Is there any plug in for ArcGIS pro?

Thanks a lot
Best regards

Thanks, I was keeping the Map in Geodatabase. As a result, it was preventing Patch Analyst to execute the analysis. I transferred it to an ordinary folder and it worked.

Tonnes of Thanks again.
