Summary

Aggregates data from a point layer (such as a customer layer) to a polygon layer (such as a trade area).

Learn more about how Summarize Points Report works

Usage

  • This tool allows you to generate trade areas with appended customer or store-based data.

  • Appended values must be volumetric/numeric.

  • All values appended will be summed.

  • Do not append medians, means, or averages.

  • You can generate a report or a mapping layer with the selected appended values attributed.

  • The mapping output will be thematically mapped based on the point count (that is, the number of points that fall within each polygon).

Syntax

arcpy.ba.SummarizePoints(InputPointLayer, InputBoundaryLayer, IDField, NameField, SummarizePointsFields, {UseSelectedFeatures}, {UseSelectedBoundaries}, {CreateReport}, {ReportTitle}, {ReportFile}, {CreateFeatureClass}, {OutputFeatureClass}, {GroupBy}, {ReportFormats})
ParameterExplanationData Type
