I made a polygon feature within a geodatabase with the applications. It happens sometimes that several persons apply on the same area. To provide a better service to the clients I would like to create a map where you can see the number of overlapping applications for the whole country. I was checking with the geoprocessing tools, how you can count overlapping items within one feature but I didn't get any wiser of this. Can anyone help me with this issue. Thank you very much</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Sarah Crabbe</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 03 Jun 2011 17:56:07 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/counting-overlapping-items-in-one-feature/m-p/97799#M3370 SBBSBB 2011-06-03T17:56:07Z Re: Counting overlapping items in one feature https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/counting-overlapping-items-in-one-feature/m-p/97800#M3371 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>You might run a spatial join of your polygons to the applications as points.&nbsp; Check out your options but one of them is a count field showing how many points fall within it.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>You might instead run an overlay of the points with the polygons and then dump the results into a pivot table for analysis or do an attribute join to get the results added back to the polygons and then analyze those results.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 08 Jun 2011 11:53:07 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/counting-overlapping-items-in-one-feature/m-p/97800#M3371 JohnSobetzer 2011-06-08T11:53:07Z
