Description

Union combines the features of two polygon layers into a new feature class that contains the attributes and the full spatial extent of both layers.

Remarks

The useSelectedInput state refers to whether or not a selected subset of the InputTable is to be combined with the overlay. True signifies that a selected subset will be used. False signifies that union operation will ignore any selected subset.

The useSelectedOverlay state refers to whether or not a selected subset of the overlayTable is to be used. True signifies that the selected subset will serve as the overlay layer. False signifies that the union operation will ignore any selected subset.

Passing 0.0 causes the default tolerance to be used. The default tolerance is 1/10,000 of the extent of the data frame's spatial domain.
