I'm using ArcGIS Pro 2.8.2. I have a layer of census block (polygon layer 1). And I have another layer of the center point latitude and longitude of the census blocks (point layer). I use this point layer to generate circular buffer area of one mile around the center points (polygon layer 2). Now I want to determine whether for each census block, it completely lies within its buffer area. For example, in buffer_polygon.png, the census block does not lie completely within its circular buffer area of one mile. I was wondering which tool I should use and which steps I should take to determine whether for each census block, it completely lies within its buffer area. Thank you.</P> Fri, 20 Aug 2021 17:45:03 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/how-to-decide-whether-a-polygon-lies-completely/m-p/1090880#M44696 zhongying_gan 2021-08-20T17:45:03Z Re: How to decide whether a polygon lies completely within another polygon https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/how-to-decide-whether-a-polygon-lies-completely/m-p/1090885#M44697 <P>Try <STRONG><A href="https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/latest/tool-reference/data-management/select-layer-by-location.htm" target="_self">Select by Location</A></STRONG>.</P><P>Relationship: "Completely Within"</P> Fri, 20 Aug 2021 17:56:07 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/how-to-decide-whether-a-polygon-lies-completely/m-p/1090885#M44697 JayantaPoddar 2021-08-20T17:56:07Z Re: How to decide whether a polygon lies completely within another polygon https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-pro-questions/how-to-decide-whether-a-polygon-lies-completely/m-p/1090966#M44703 <P>Thank you.
