Business Analyst reports using custom features on the map

adwaitr — Fri, 07 Mar 2025 21:13:03 GMT

I want to pull the data only for a specific site or feature that is on the map . It can be anything like a custom neighborhood boundary or council district boundaries. I tried using benchmark comparison report .

For Location types I selected Features on the Map.

How does this workflow work? Is Business analyst using Census tract or block group level to find the total number ?

Also lets say if my custom boundary is intersecting with more than one block groups/census tracts/zip codes , will it give me the total of all the geographies (level of detail) or is there something else it uses to give the result only within the custom site?

Hi @adwaitr, thank you for reaching out! I believe this documentation on data apportionment will be very helpful to you: https://doc.arcgis.com/en/business-analyst/web/understand-data-apportionment.htm .
