Hi Dan The following works great, just can't figure out how to use the following within an update cursor: The following is how far I've gotten: # environmental features within each settlement
def environmental_features(enviro_input):
enviro_intersect = []
for fcs in enviro_input:
orig_name = arcpy.Describe(fcs).name
input_features = ["Settlements_Amended", orig_name]
intersect_name = "{0}\\{1}_int".format("in_memory", orig_name)
arcpy.Intersect_analysis(input_features, intersect_name)
enviro_intersect.append(intersect_name)
merge_name = "{0}\\{1}_merge".format("in_memory", "Environmental")
arcpy.Merge_management(enviro_intersect, merge_name)
diss_name = "{0}\\{1}_diss".format(input_fgdb, "Environmental")
arcpy.Union_analysis(merge_name, diss_name, "ALL")
field_name = "ENVIRO_TYPE"
arcpy.AddField_management(diss_name, "ENVIRO_TYPE",
"TEXT",
field_length=100)
field_names = [f.name for f in arcpy.ListFields(diss_name, "TYPE*", "TEXT")]
cur_fields = list(field_names)
cur_fields.append(field_name)
with arcpy.da.UpdateCursor(diss_name, cur_fields)as ucur: # @UndefinedVariable
for row in ucur:
print row[0], row[1]

I'm creating a single feature class that will represent environmental areas within my study area. The environmental feature class is made up multiple feature classes that was merged, then union-ed . Each of the feature classes that were merged can contain a field "TYPE_RIV", "TYPE_WET", "TYPE_CBA", "TYPE_PROTECT". What I'm trying to achieve is a better way of populating a new field "TYPE" that will concatenate the TYPE field (i.e. "TYPE_RIV", "TYPE_WET" etc.) values automatically based on the input environmental feature classes as this can differ from study area to study area. In other words in some cases there will be "TYPE_RIV", "TYPE_WET" and other cases there will be "TYPE_RIV", "TYPE_WET", "TYPE_CBA" lastly "TYPE_RIV", "TYPE_WET", "TYPE_CBA", "TYPE_PROTECT" Once I've merged and union-ed the input feature classes, I'd like to identify the "TYPE_*" fields and concatenate the field fields into the new "TYPE" fields as per below: End Result Required: Current Code Block to Populate "TYPE" field I can easily get the "TYPE_*" fields using s a list fields search, but how can an automatically populate the "TYPE" field concatenating the fields correctly based on the fields within the list as the if statements are hard coded and not sure how to get around the following.

Hi Cynthia I eventually landed up re-writing the Centroidal Longest Flowpath Tool within Python. I've added the code below if you'd like to use it. Please note that you will need Python Pathlib Package or other wise replace it with os.path.join. Also note that the following feature class needs to be within the input file geodatabase: LongestFlowPath_2D (i.e. its the longest flow path feature class for each subwatershed or watershed) '''

I've found a temporary solution to the following, using Summary Statistics. I'd really appreciate any advice in how to alter my NumPy Function to get the results out within the correct format. The following will allow me to get my results out today. Thanks for the advice so far.

Hi Dan Column C would be the same. The reason that the second image is different was just to show that there could be values from Time5 - Time60 depending of the statistics results. The second record within the second image would have been four records within the first image. I've replaced the second image to show only one record and filled the empty columns to depict that the Time range of possible results depending on the statistics results.

!I recently posted the following discussion Convert Summary Table Structure (Python) which I thought I'd resolved with the help from Dan Patterson. Please refer to my previous post for the explanation and the reasoning behind the following. Where I'm currently at is that I have been able to pivot the column Time and populate it with the values from the statistics count results. The last hurdle that I'm trying to achieve is to merge the results so that there isn't a new record for each time interval as shown below: Incorrect Pivot Results: Correct Pivot Results: '''

Hi Dan Thanks for getting back to me on the following. By the way, I'm currently working through the NumPy Einsum Distance documentation that you provided me with as well as through the Numpy Reference Documentation to better understand how the following works. With regards to the moving of the points within the polygons. The following is only part of the rest of the algorithm that I'm currently busy developing. It's important that the points are at least 3m apart from each other but still within the polygon as they are going to refer back to the polygon once I have completed developing the following algorithm. The Building Footprints should not overlap each other, if they do its an topology error which I fix before running the following. I'll provide you an updated polygon and point dataset tonight, after I've ensured its clean of any topology errors. Thanks Dan for all the help and guidance.

Hi Chad The following will deal with the blanks within your date fields: def fnElapsed(STRDTTM, ENDDTTM):
from datetime import datetime
try:
dateStart = datetime.strptime(STRDTTM, "%d/%m/%Y %I:%M:%S %p")
dateEnd = datetime.strptime(ENDDTTM, "%d/%m/%Y %I:%M:%S %p")
timeDiff = dateEnd - dateStart
elapMin = timeDiff.total_seconds()/60
return elapMin
except Exception as inst:
print type(inst) fnElapsed(!STRDTTM!, !ENDDTTM!)

Hi Dan I've attached the zipped file geodatabase containing the point and polygon features. A few points that need to be taken into consideration: I really like to keep the points as central as possible When moving the points they need to be moved with half meter increments Once the points have been moved they will need to be rechecked to ensure they are not within 3m or less of the other points The points are representing the polygons that they are falling within. The points are then being used to obtain a unique id, based on a spheriod grid system of 3m grids (or less closer to the poles). Unfortunately I don't have access to the grid before requesting the unique id. So by ensuring that the points are at least 3m apart from each other, I'm ensured that the returned id is unique for each building footprint. Thanks Dan

Please note that I only have a ArcGIS Standard Licence. I have posted the following "Python Near Analysis (No Advanced Licence)" . Dan Patterson has provided me with some homework, which I'll be going through. I have another question that builds onto of the following. Once I've determined the shortest distance between each point feature. I'd like to filter out the point features that are within 3m or less of each other. I'm then looking for proximity techniques of being able to move the point features away from each other until they are over 3m away from each other, but still within the blue polygons. Any suggestions and workflows using Python will be appreciated.
