[ATTACH=CONFIG]15386[/ATTACH]Hello. I have a stream feature class. The streams are divided into many, connected line segments. I also have a layer of multiple polygons representing linear ROW areas. My goal is to calculate how many continuous streams pass through the ROW. My workflow has been: Intersect the stream line layer with the polygon ROW layer. This produces a line layer representing only stream lines that fall within the ROW polygons. My next step is to dissolve in a way such that all connected line segments become a single line feature and all unconnected line segments remain as individual features. I used the Dissolve tool, and unchecked the Create Multipart option. I expected this to dissolve all connected line segments into a single feature, but leave unconnected line segments as-is. In areas where there is a stream confluence, this did not happen. The connected segments remained as individual features. I do believe the lines are actually connected; I zoomed in to something like 1:0.1 and they still looked connected. Does anyone know how I can dissolve this stream layer so that all connected line segments become a single feature?
Below is a image of what resulted. The numbered segments remained after I ran a dissolve. I want to dissolve them such that these connected segments become a single line feature to represent a single stream crossing.
Thank you.
