Grids (Business Analyst)

概要

Generates an equidistant vector based grid network for a specified area.

使用法

• This tool creates vector based grid cells for a specified size and extent.

• Valid numeric distances must be used when defining grid cell size values. Negative distances cannot be used.

• The output grid will be created at the cell size specified by the grid cell size.

• It is recommended that you limit your grid size to 0.5 miles or larger to reflect data accuracy and appropriate retrieval of demographic data that is apportioned to the grids.

• Creating very small grid cells for a large extent will take a long to time to process when aggregating data from another layer. Each grid cell is the equivalent of a trade area.

パラメータ	説明	データ タイプ
ExtentWay	How the extent for which the grids will be defined. Enter the coordinates manually —Defines the bounding envelope coordinates manually. Get extent from the layer —Defines the bounding coordinates based on a selected layer.	String
GridSize	The unit used to determine the size of each grid.	Double
MeasureUnits （オプション）	The units used with the distance values. By default, the units defined in the Business Analyst preferences will be selected. Decimal Degrees — Feet — Kilometers — Meters — Miles — Nautical Miles — Yards —	String
OutputFeatureClass	The feature class that will contain the grid features.	Feature Class
ExtentSourceLayer （オプション）	The input feature class used to define the extent of the grid network.	Feature Layer
Extent （オプション）	Custom bounding units for the grid extent. Enter the Y minimum and maximum and the X minimum and maximum.	Envelope
BDSFeatureClass （オプション）	Input feature class that will contain the available layers that can be appended to the output feature class (grid).	Feature Layer
GridSymbolizationField （オプション）	Defines the variable that will be thematically mapped in the output feature class.	String
SelectedSummarizations [SelectedSummarizations,...] （オプション）	Allows you to select from an available list of variables in the Layer to Aggregate input feature class to append to the output feature class.	String
UseOnlineData （オプション）	Selects how the Business Analyst data used in the analysis will be accessed. TRUE —Allows a user to acess online Business Analyst data. FALSE —A user will only have access to locally loaded Business Analyst data. This is the default.	Boolean
