Both feature classes have a field with a unique 5 digit ID for each county as well. Being that I am relatively new to Python, is there a way I can use a loop or searchcursor to clip each of the 90 polygons to their respective county boundary using their 5 digit ID?</P><P style="margin-bottom: 1em; font-size: 15px; color: #222222; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; background-color: rgba(248, 248, 248, 0.6);">*The red rose colored polygons show the overlapping polygons I need to clip and the tan colored polygons show what I need the final product to look like.</P><P style="margin-bottom: 1em; font-size: 15px; color: #222222; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; background-color: rgba(248, 248, 248, 0.6);"><IMG alt="Example.PNG" class="image-1 jive-image" src="https://community.esri.com/legacyfs/online/151969_Example.PNG" style="height: auto;" /></P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 04 Dec 2015 20:44:55 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/trying-to-automate-clip-for-multiple-polygons/m-p/72231#M2534 DylanMackowiak 2015-12-04T20:44:55Z Re: Trying to automate clip for multiple polygons based on unique field ID? https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/trying-to-automate-clip-for-multiple-polygons/m-p/72232#M2535 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>There is an intersect method on the <A href="http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.1%20/index.html#/Polygon/018z00000061000000/">arcpy.Polygon()</A> object that you can use for polygon-level intersects between individual polygon features, which you can get to using a cursor.</P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 04 Dec 2015 21:06:20 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/trying-to-automate-clip-for-multiple-polygons/m-p/72232#M2535 DarrenWiens2 2015-12-04T21:06:20Z
