Audit of Point Data

EdwinTerrell100 — Thu, 19 Mar 2026 21:01:27 GMT

Hi - I have shapefile of addresses (800,00) with values of precinct and city council district. I'd like to overlay a precinct and city council district shapefile on top and audit to make sure they have the correct values. Any idea how I can do this? All the videos I've found thus far are auditing for a point count within a polygon.

Thanks!

I'd suggest using an overlay tool, such as Union to put the polygon attributes on the points:

https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/3.4/tool-reference/analysis/union.htm

Then, in the output layer, you can do a select by attribute to find cases where the precinct attribute from the point feature class does not match the precinct attribute from the precinct feature class.
