https://community.esri.com/t5/arcmap-questions/kernel-density-not-showing-up-correctly/m-p/1115619#M3179 <P>Hello all! I am struggling using kernel density to show my points as density per square meter. I have gone through everything I can online to find a solution and still come up with the same result. I have tried changing the projected coordinate system several times. Both of my layers seen in my screenshot have the same PCS&nbsp;NAD_1983_Michigan_GeoRef_Meters; I chose this because I want my units to be in meters.&nbsp;</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Screenshot (26).png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.esri.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/27135i481D493A20453CF2/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="Screenshot (26).png" alt="Screenshot (26).png" /></span></P><P> When I go to use the kernel density this is what happens:</P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Screenshot (28).png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.esri.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/27136iCB8BF2B1478A7283/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="Screenshot (28).png" alt="Screenshot (28).png" /></span></P><P> </P><P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Screenshot (30).png" style="width: 400px;"><img src="https://community.esri.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/27137i08FF6F074FF3BFE2/image-size/medium?v=v2&amp;px=400" role="button" title="Screenshot (30).png" alt="Screenshot (30).png" /></span></P><P> Which as you can see is not right.
