I think I did not confuse them? the overlapping referred to the original situation where I had two different polygon layers (e.g. the soil type polygons and the biodiversity polygons). To clarify: Originally, I had a polygon (feature) layer for biodiversity (and the boundaries of this layer are to be the zones in the end-result), and a polygon layer for soil type. I converted the polygon layer for soil type into a raster, where each pixel contained information on the soil type number only (i.e. different classes?). Then, I used the Zonal statistics as table tool with as ' input feature zone data' the biodiversity polygons, as 'zone field' a copy of the OBJECTID (to make it more stable), as 'Input value raster' the soil raster file, and as statistics type 'Majority'. Thank you for taking the time to look into this question. I really appreciate it.

Thank you all so much for the help. I've tried the new zonal statistics as table 2 tool, and run a 'Find overlapping features' analysis which did not find any overlapping polygons.

Zonal statistics as table worked! Only, I get 18500 out of my 87.346 overlapping polygons? Is there a limit to the length of the Zonal Statistics as table tool, and can I work around this?

Sorry, I do not understand your answer entirely? Could you please clarify it a bit further?

Dear ArcGIS community, I am trying to add attribute information of a soil type polygon layer to a biodiversity (output) polygon layer, where both polygon layers are different (and thus, there are different soil types in each biodiversity polygon). I only want to include the soil type that is most common in the biodiversity polygons (i.e. largest area) Thus, I thought, I would preform a Union, then calculate the area of each section and put this largest area and the soil type of this area in centroids. Then I wanted to perform a Spatial join of these centroids to the original biodiversity layer, but in a way that ONLY the soil types would be added if that soil type is most common based on the area I calculated before. I have, however not found a way to do this (i.e. make the output soil type attribute dependent on if the corresponding area is larger than the other soil type areas within the biodiversity polygon). What would be a way to approach this? Thank you so much in advance, it really means a lot!
