Parcels don't need to be any certain minimum size regarding overall area, rather within the parcel you could have a "line segment" 3,000 feet in length. I have some 30,000 parcels to consider.</P><P></P><P>Line of sight would eventually need to be considered but right now I would be happy with just knowing what parcels have the shape/area large enough for a 3,000-ft line segment within it. </P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 04 Dec 2014 16:55:00 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-data-science-questions/parcels-large-enough-for-a-1-000-yard-shot/m-p/630367#M1425 JustinBarnard 2014-12-04T16:55:00Z Re: parcels large enough for a 1,000 yard shot https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-data-science-questions/parcels-large-enough-for-a-1-000-yard-shot/m-p/630368#M1426 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>You can exclude a lot of candidates by running <A href="http://help.arcgis.com/en/arcgisdesktop/10.0/help/index.html#//00170000003q000000">Minimum Bounding Geometry</A> (geometry type = RECTANGLE_BY_WIDTH).
