Hello:

In light of hurricane Ida, is there a way in Pro how I can calculate / determine which of our locations are within a 50.0-mile radius of the U.S. coastline please?

Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated - thanks!

Here's a simple solution for you:

You need a dataset for the US coastline (see below). and then use the select by location tools

This feature service for the us coastline could be used:

You can run Near tool with the coastline as the Near Features and 50.0-mile as search radius.

You can also use Select Layer By Location using "Within a distance" option and the same search radius.
