Verwendung
-
The Locator Report is a proximity report that allows you to list the n number of facilities in relation to each of your store locations.
-
Business points can be competitors, customers, service centers, or any other point layer.
-
You can extract business data in Business Analyst using the Add Business Listings wizard if you do not have your own competitive locations.
-
In ArcMap, reports will only be created for features that are within the active study area or analysis extent.
-
The portrait report allows you to add four fields to the report, and the landscape report allows up to six fields.
-
Executing this report using drive distance or drive time can take awhile to execute depending on the number of points in the business layer. If you do not use a straight-line distance, a route is created using the street network from each point to each store.
-
Use the Add Distance Field to Business option to add an attribute field back to the business points layer that will store the distance from the store center point to each feature in the business point layer. You can use this option to store the distance each of your customers is from the nearest store location.
-
Drive Distance or Drive Time values can show -1 for that business point that doesn't have a route from store. The Locator Report will show NR (No Route) for such a point.
