topic Naming output feature classes so they do not get overwritten in ArcGIS Pro Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/naming-output-feature-classes-so-they-do-not-get/m-p/418082#M18610 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi, I have 10 buffers and 30 years of events (point data)(3 in this model). I am trying to create separate feature classes that count the number of events intersecting with each buffer. I am iterating over the buffers and using a batch spatial join for each of the years events.&nbsp;</P><P></P><P>the problem is that each buffer overwrites the previous feature classes.&nbsp; So lets say I have 10 buffers and 30 years of events. Then I would expect to get 300 output feature classes. But I only get 10 feature classes. They are the spatial join of the each buffer and the last year of the batch (instead of every year of the batch). I tried using the %Name% convention but it just names it the buffer name. %n% doesn't work either. Thoughts?</P><P></P><P><IMG class="image-1 jive-image" src="https://community.esri.com/legacyfs/online/507439_pastedImage_1.png" /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 19 Sep 2020 06:39:18 GMT IanIrmischer 2020-09-19T06:39:18Z Naming output feature classes so they do not get overwritten https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/naming-output-feature-classes-so-they-do-not-get/m-p/418082#M18610 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi, I have 10 buffers and 30 years of events (point data)(3 in this model).
