Run a suitability analysis and create sites

Hello,

I'm trying to run a Suitability Analysis on a specific zone and have ArcGIS Pro generate potential sites that meet my criteria. I can't seem to find the area to have it generate the polygons though.

I have an AOI with 3 rasters that specify land cover, slope, and existing infrastructure. I need to build a site within the AOI that is 160 acres, ideally square, and is placed in the most ideal locations. Closest to roads but doesn't overlap infrastructure. How do I get ArcGIS Pro to complete this task? All of the suitability analyses I've run before typically are just points.

Thank you,

Ian

@IanLadd_Tourmaline you can achieve this with the Suitability Modeler in ArcGIS Pro.

The workflow is outline in the below documentation. This will output a weighted suitability surface and you can create suitability sites. You should be about to generate the parameters to meet your above requirements.
