David Bollinger, I am updating this distribution which was discussed back in 2016.  As you suggested, I am looking at using values instead of count. You mentioned you had done so for a 2010 Supervisorial Redistricting. If by some chance you happen to still have your script, I would love to have a look at it. I haven't touched python since 2016 and am just now working on my script and appreciate any assistance. I am interested in both the using values and adjusting the starting angles.  The gang on this site were incredibly helpful in 2016! Xander Bakker‌, Your script worked beautifully with some personal tweaks. You have no idea how grateful I am to you.  ... View more

P.S. Sheldon, it is great to see you on here. I worked in Big Bend NP for a while and miss the wide open spaces. I would love to have a private conversation and hear more about your work for NPS. ... View more

LOL Sheldon. I don't think this one time project would justify the expense. But I can dream. ... View more

Oh my...this is all great and has my mind spinning with the various possibilities.  I am still deep in the depths of hand placing the last couple of hundred locations that didn't geocode. But I am really looking forward to trying at least a couple of these ideas. I have not used code before in ArcMap but am excited about the possibilities. Unfortunately GIS is only a tiny portion of my job duties (and one that I specifically sought out myself) so I don't get near enough time to work on much beyond the basics. I do really appreciate all this input and frankly am a bit in awe of the great responses. Thank you so much.  (And feel free to keep additional ideas coming if you are so inspired.)  ... View more

To answer your questions, Dan. I do not have Network Analyst. Just basic ArcMap 10.1 with the Spatial Analyst extension. I can live with the straight line distances and directions. The main goal is to distribute the number of locations to visit. We know that the distances and routes will vary but it is hoped that each inspector will get some locations near the office and some farther. That is hoped to even out the driving burden. Some will have further to drive but others will have to deal with more traffic. I am looking for 19 territories plus 6 which will only be about half the number of locations. I do appreciate all your thoughts and insight into this problem. ... View more

Here is a quick screen grab. The star is our office and the dots are locations to be inspected. ... View more

Thanks Chris. This is for inspecting restaurants, pools, hotels etc so I will have point data as soon as I finish cleaning up the geocoding.  🙂 ... View more

I did not know about this add-on. It shows potential. Since this is for inspecting restaurants, hotels, pools etc. I do have a specific set of locations. ... View more

Unfortunately no, I do not have an advanced license. Just basic ArcMap 10.1 with the Spatial Analyst extension. ... View more
