Is there a new tool in Pro that will offset routes that overlap each other? I would prefer to symbolically display the offset but if that does not exist than physically moving the lines would do as well. I don't need to keep it as part of a network, it is just for display. I have seen many posts on this issues from the past decade, but I still have not found a simple and appropriate (no special licensing required) solution. Seems like such a standard thing to be able to map overlapping bus routes clearly, especially when so much transit GTFS data is now available for free.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Thanks - I was really hoping that ESRI would have found someway to address this. Oh well. Thanks for the link to schematic maps- it indeed looks very complicated
Unfortunately, no, ArcGIS Pro does not have any easy-to-use tools to make schematic diagrams of non-overlapping transit lines on a map.
Here is a nice article describing the many challenges of this workflow: https://medium.com/transit-app/how-we-built-the-worlds-prettiest-auto-generated-transit-maps-12d0c6f...
