I have intersected those sites with a map of my state, which gives the area of each polygon individually and the town name where each polygon is located in the attribute table. Often, there are many suitable polygons within one town. Is there a way that I can obtain a table which sums all of the suitable polygons' areas of each town so I can make a ranking of which towns have the most suitable area?</P><P></P><P>Thank you.</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 15 Oct 2015 20:07:46 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-data-science-questions/consolidate-attributes-by-area/m-p/241860#M559 AlexanderReiner 2015-10-15T20:07:46Z Re: consolidate attributes by area https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-data-science-questions/consolidate-attributes-by-area/m-p/241861#M560 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>are you looking for something summarize? <A href="http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/desktop/latest/manage-data/tables/summarizing-data-in-a-table.htm" title="http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/desktop/latest/manage-data/tables/summarizing-data-in-a-table.htm">Summarizing data in a table—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop</A></P><P>​or do you have to do a join first ?</P><P></P><P><A href="http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/desktop/latest/manage-data/tables/about-joining-and-relating-tables.htm" title="http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/desktop/latest/manage-data/tables/about-joining-and-relating-tables.htm">About joining and relating tables—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop</A> </P><P><A href="http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/desktop/latest/tools/analysis-toolbox/spatial-join.htm" title="http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/desktop/latest/tools/analysis-toolbox/spatial-join.htm">Spatial Join—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop</A> </P><P><A href="http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/desktop/latest/tools/data-management-toolbox/add-join.htm" title="http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/desktop/latest/tools/data-management-toolbox/add-join.htm">Add Join—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop</A> </P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 15 Oct 2015 20:09:05 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-data-science-questions/consolidate-attributes-by-area/m-p/241861#M560 DanPatterson_Retired 2015-10-15T20:09:05Z Re: consolidate attributes by area https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-data-science-questions/consolidate-attributes-by-area/m-p/241862#M561 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Awesome.
