Polygon Creation based on Percentage Allocation

Venkata_NareshKarri — Mon, 15 Aug 2016 13:39:14 GMT

Hi Everyone,

Greeting:-)

I need your support on below requirement. Kindly suggest me with best possible solutions?

Below is the brief description about the requirement,

1.) We have a point data which relates each dealer in an area.
2.) Each dealer will be assigned with some % of allocation at run time.
3.) Based on the % of allocation, each point has to generate a polygon with different colors.
4.) The cumulative percentage of allocation will be 100%.

Thiessen polygon analysis tool is some what close to my @requirement but it won't give output based on our percentage of allocation values.

Thank you,

Venkata Naresh

Do you have the network analyst? location-allocation analysis

Hi Dan,

Thanks for your response.

Firstly, i don't have any idea about Network analyst tools. But I just gone through it yesterday and i felt like it may not fulfill my requirement as it wont create any polygon.

Kindly correct me if i am wrong.

Thanks in advance.

You want a service area output from the location-allocation result. Ideally you could use a concave hull on the result, but a convex hull might do. the latter is implemented in ArcMap
