Just try to visualize where this point would be located and you will realize that there is no solution.&nbsp;</P><P>Jay Sandhu</P> Wed, 26 Jan 2022 18:05:12 GMT JaySandhu 2022-01-26T18:05:12Z Finding a central drive-time point for a layer of point features https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-network-analyst-questions/finding-a-central-drive-time-point-for-a-layer-of/m-p/1137482#M7752 <P>I have a layer with about 40 points and I am trying to determine the single point that is the equal driving distance between all of these locations.&nbsp; I am stumped on what tool(s) to use to determine how to find this central point.&nbsp; I have access to Desktop 10.8 and ArcGIS Pro with extensions for Network Analyst, Business Analyst, and Geostatistical Analyst.</P> Wed, 26 Jan 2022 17:17:30 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-network-analyst-questions/finding-a-central-drive-time-point-for-a-layer-of/m-p/1137482#M7752 RobertCox87 2022-01-26T17:17:30Z Re: Finding a central drive-time point for a layer of point features https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-network-analyst-questions/finding-a-central-drive-time-point-for-a-layer-of/m-p/1137510#M7753 <P>I think you need to describe what your goal is for this analysis as finding a point that is equal distant to 40 other points may not be possible.

It can find a place that minimizes overall travel times to multiple locations. For example if you are trying to build a warehouse to service some warehouses.</P><P>Jay Sandhu</P> Fri, 28 Jan 2022 21:56:24 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-network-analyst-questions/finding-a-central-drive-time-point-for-a-layer-of/m-p/1138557#M7756 JaySandhu 2022-01-28T21:56:24Z
