This task removes cannibalization between trade areas generated in the Business Analyst Server or custom derived trade areas. Overlap is removed using Thiessen polygons or the grid-based approach to find the midline between the intersecting areas.

The result of this task is a ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.BACore.TaskResultOutput object, which is compatible with ArcGIS Server's mapping APIs. FeatureSet, MapImage, and an array of ESRI.ArcGIS.Client.BACore.ReportInfo objects can be returned in it depending on the task output options requested. Additionally, the output analysis layer and/or report can be stored to the Business Analyst Server repository.
