I would like to check that both sets of data have the same location for the same points i.e. that point one in dataset x is in the same place as point one in dataset y. I know that at least a few points will not be in the same place and would like to know which ones are in the wrong place and by how far. </P><P></P><P>The datasets have identical UIDs, what is the best way of doing this? The datasets contain 225 points each.</P><P></P><P>Thanks in advance for any help!</P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 23 Sep 2014 10:15:02 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/comparing-sets-of-data/m-p/349461#M20024 TerenceAlexander1 2014-09-23T10:15:02Z Re: Comparing Sets of Data https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/comparing-sets-of-data/m-p/349462#M20025 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Have you tried this?</P><P><A href="http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.2/index.html#//001700000004000000" title="http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.2/index.html#//001700000004000000">ArcGIS Help (10.2, 10.2.1, and 10.2.2)</A> </P></BODY></HTML> Tue, 23 Sep 2014 11:34:44 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/comparing-sets-of-data/m-p/349462#M20025 JohannesBierer 2014-09-23T11:34:44Z Re: Comparing Sets of Data https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/comparing-sets-of-data/m-p/349463#M20026 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi,</P><P></P><P>I did look at that tool briefly but it seemed to only compare the dataset table size, not the actual difference in geometry for the points.
