Hi,
I have a table of bakeries (large scale factories actually) with XY-coordinates. In another table I have suppliers of Milk, Nuts and Honey listed. Example data in Excel below:
Bakeries:
Suppliers:
Is there a way to calculate distance from each supplier to Bakery1. Bonus question, is there a way to calculate distance from Bakery1 to all suppliers within 100km?
I currently have a standard license of ArcGis Pro.
Kind regards,
Marcus
Smells like homework ![]()
Try "XY to line". "Construct sight lines" is also useful for 1:n scenarios. As for the second, just do a spatial selection first.
Thank you will try this and report back ![]()
Actually not homework, tried to simplify the problem to be able to explain. The industry is automotive and the categories are around 100 ![]()
There is a tool specifically made for this: Generate Near Table—Help | ArcGIS Desktop
Thanks. I know there is Generate Near Table my problem is that it is an Advanced license to use it and I only have access to standard license. So unfortunately not a solution for me
Ah, OK. Have you checked out /blogs/dan_patterson/2017/01/23/generate-near-table-for-points
You can also try a Spatial Join and under Match Option, select Closest. This will then add a field in your attribute table with the closest distance. You can then also limit this search distance to say 100 km if you set a value in the Search Radius field.
