What am I trying to do is to find the common polygons that have both the same label and are next to each other they needed to be merge into one polygon.</P><P></P><P>Right now the only way around for me is to run a dissolve and use by the field to dissolve them. Then I ran and use the tool Split them by using the split field name. I then bring them to Arcmap to go through to ensure each polygon from field name (MUID) , so they don't touch each other...</P><P></P><P>Some of the layer may have a lot of them in cluster and some of them are far apart. When they are far apart, I remove them.</P><P></P><P>Is there a script for that ? or Is there a better method to do around than that I am doing ?</P><P></P><P>So here is the scope of what I am doing here:</P><P></P><P>1. dissolve the layer using the field name ie MUID</P><P>2. Use split tool the dissolve layer using the MUID</P><P>3. Bring them to ArcMap to review each split layer to look for common polygons.</P><P>4. If there is no common polygon found then remove it from the Table of Content.</P><P>5) If the common polygon is found, keep it in the table of contents.</P><P>6) Return to the Original data I worked on and compare with the common polygon found.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 30 Nov 2016 15:29:08 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/common-polygon-question/m-p/423144#M24158 DEAF_PROBERT_68 2016-11-30T15:29:08Z Re: Common Polygon Question https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/common-polygon-question/m-p/423145#M24159 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>How about <A href="http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/tool-reference/data-management/dissolve.htm">Dissolve</A> followed by <A href="https://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/tool-reference/data-management/multipart-to-singlepart.htm">Multipart to Singlepart</A>?</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 30 Nov 2016 15:33:48 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/common-polygon-question/m-p/423145#M24159 JayantaPoddar 2016-11-30T15:33:48Z Re: Common Polygon Question https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/common-polygon-question/m-p/423146#M24160 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Yes.I tried this before and it worked. </P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 30 Nov 2016 15:47:26 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/common-polygon-question/m-p/423146#M24160 AbdullahAnter 2016-11-30T15:47:26Z Re: Common Polygon Question https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/common-polygon-question/m-p/423147#M24161 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>The only way I can do is run a tool named Polygon Neighbors,&nbsp;<A class="link-titled" href="http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/tool-reference/analysis/polygon-neighbors.htm" title="http://pro.arcgis.com/en/pro-app/tool-reference/analysis/polygon-neighbors.htm">Polygon Neighbors—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop</A>&nbsp;, seems to worked but it can get you a lot of work if you have a lot of polygons.
