I think I found some errors in the "Population for any area" sample available on the Flex API Samples page- http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/flex/samples/index.html. Has anyone else noticed these problems or found workarounds?
1. Using points, the population calculations don't seem to work for any buffer distances under 1645 meters or so. The error message says to try a smaller number (I'm guessing this should really be "larger number") If I want to calculate pops within 1 mile (1609 meters) of a point, is there any way to do this, aside from creating my own geoprocessing service?
2. The buffers that are drawn don't match the input distances. For example, using 2000 meters as the buffer distance, the radius of the circle drawn is only about 1.5 km according to the scale bar...
