Spatial Overlay (Business Analyst)
Resumen
Aggregates data from one layer to another. For example, you can summarize block group demographic data for a set of trade areas.

Uso
-
The input layer must be properly formatted using the Analysis Layer Setup tool in ESRI Business Analyst with appropriate apportionment values applied.
-
The input layer contains the underlying data you want to extract.
-
Data is added to the overlay layer. Data is extracted from the input layer and aggregated into the overlay layer.
-
You can aggregate from a point- or polygon-based input layer.
-
A file called Ratios Table.dbf will be created and added in the same directory of the output overlay layer. This ratios table contains the percentage of intersection and weights used to execute the overlay.
-
Don't run a spatial overlay analysis if ArcMap is still redrawing your map. This may cause a problem with ArcMap and result in ArcMap crashing.
