topic Proximity Search for point feature in Geoprocessing Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/proximity-search-for-point-feature/m-p/418432#M14115 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I have a shape files with 6000+ points. I am looking for a proximity search to find the points which are close to another point with a distance between 15m to 1000m. I mean I want to avoid if the points are between 15m closeby and I also don't need if they are separate by more than 1000m. Unfortunately when I use the proximity search tool I do a search with a distance of 1000m or so but I can avoid points which are close to 15m (just to avoid duplication because of GPS errors due poor reception). Is there a way to achieve my this objective?. If proximity search is not the correct tool what is the correct tool do I need to use? I shall be thankful if someone can help me on this thanks in advance.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 08 Sep 2011 08:50:36 GMT RegunathanUmapathy 2011-09-08T08:50:36Z Proximity Search for point feature https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/proximity-search-for-point-feature/m-p/418432#M14115 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>I have a shape files with 6000+ points.
