Spatial Join, sumarize points to (one) line

DeepSeaMapping — Wed, 21 Feb 2024 12:51:34 GMT

I have line features (streets) and points (accidents) and I want to sumarize the points to the lines (within a distance 5m) unfortuantley it "duplicates" points that are close to an intersection and they get countet to two differnt line features. How can I make sure, that it only sumarizes it to the closest line, but still summarizes it.

If I select closest, it only takes 1 closest point.

Any suggestions? Thanks

a little more information might help: do the points have an address or street identifier associated with them? and by 'summarize the points to the lines' do you mean that you are trying to obtain a count (or some other metric) of accidents along each street? If the points have an address that includes the street number it might be worth creating a model or python script that iterates through the lines and finds the points with matching street name. Also depending on the summary you are looking for, again, if you have a street name associated with each point you may be able to simply summarize the points by street name, then join that result to your table. This sounds like a spatial problem but it may not be purely spatial.
