PointsInPolygonReport Method

Creates a report on distribution of points within polygons.

Availability: Business Analyst Server 9.3.1.

TaskResultOutput PointsInPolygonReport ( 
    PointsInPolygonReportParameters  Parameters, 
    esriReportFormat                 ReportFormat, 
    TaskOutputType[]                 OutputTypes, 
    esriFolderItem                   OutputReportItem 
);

Parameter Description
Parameters Configuration options for analysis. Type PointsInPolygonReportParameters.
ReportFormat This parameter should be null. This parameter is deprecated.
OutputTypes Array of task output options. Options for this method include creating a report (GetReport). Type TaskOutputType[].
OutputReportItem (Optional parameter — can be null).
Configuration options for storing the output report in the repository. This will enable viewing and working with the output result in subsequent tasks. Type esriFolderItem.

Returns

Variable of type TaskResultOutput

Examples

The example below generates a report on distribution customers within simple rings around stores. Also, the store layer, the customer layer, and the trade area layer are all saved to the repository.

// Instantiate the BAServerHelper class to access analysis methods
BAServerHelper baServerHelper = new BAServerHelper();
baServerHelper.ActiveDatasetID = "USA_ESRI"; // Optional parameter
baServerHelper.IsFullErrorMessage = true;    // Default is false
 
// You can specify below a domain of your local Business Analyst Server.
//baServerHelper.BAServerDomain = "esri.com";
 
// If a domain name is specified, a local server name in output URLs is replaced with the
// fully-addressable server name so people and machines outside the domain of your local
// Business Analyst Server instance can access these URLs.
