It selects 3 different school using the Iterator tool from the Parcel layer and creates a 3 mile buffer around each of the 3 schools and save them as School1_Buffer, School2_Buffer, &amp; School3_Buffer. So this model works as expected!</P><P>However, I want to find the common areas among those 3 school buffer (School1_Buffer, School2_Buffer, &amp; School3_Buffer). How can I use the Intersect tool in the model to create an intersect among those 3 buffers?</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 07 May 2015 02:13:43 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/how-can-i-use-the-intersect-tool-to-find-common/m-p/410411#M32359 abubadruddin 2015-05-07T02:13:43Z
