I am just attaching slope classes I've created from a slope analysis on a TIN to a land parcel feature class table. I've selected the specific range of slope classes I'm interested in, using a select by attributes. I've selected the parcels that are within the specific slope classes by using a select by location "are within the source layer feature" using the selected features. Is this the proper select by location query to use for my specific situation? Thanks!</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 27 Nov 2014 02:30:57 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-spatial-analyst-questions/proper-select-by-location/m-p/37443#M465 AndrewLawrence 2014-11-27T02:30:57Z Re: Proper select by location https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-spatial-analyst-questions/proper-select-by-location/m-p/37444#M466 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>The <A href="http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.2/index.html#//00s50000002q000000">Help </A>dos not contain any specifics on how it manages multiple adjacent polygons: </P><P><EM>To be selected, the geometry of the target feature must fall inside the geometry of the source feature.
