Create single features from Union output

[DwightLanier]

I have a single feature class containing numerous polygons that overlap in different ways.  After running the union tool I now have multiple polygons where the input features overlapped, but there are multiple polygons for each input.  What I would like is a single polygon at the intersected space, with attributes from all original input features appended, or some statistic from them (min, max, etc.).  Ideas?

in both arcmap and ArcGIS pro will convert the multiparts to singleparts resulting in unique records for each geometry entity

hi Dwight,

  first make a copy of your data.

 What you'd want to do is identify all the features with identical geometry.  This can be done with the `Find Identical` gp tool.  

 Then get your stats together:  the output of previous step you could use  as input to `Summary Statistics` gp tool with the FEAT_SEQ as the CASE_FIELD and choose whichever stats you want for each field. 

 Lastly you'll need to get the data back together into a single dataset... i think `Delete Identical` and `Join Fields` should do it ... there'll be a bit of trickiness to getting the JOIN , but pretty sure all the data is there.

could be the gap/no-gap thing as well if the geometries aren't identical (ie polygons surrounded by other polygons)
