Mean Store Center example

Использование

  • In most cases, the input Customer Layer will be a Business Analyst customer layer.

  • The Customer Layer must be point features.

  • In ArcMap, the mean store center will be determined based only on the customer points that are within the active study area or analysis extent. If you want to create the store center based on all customer points, make sure all customers are within the analysis extent.

  • You can use this tool to compare the geographic centroid of your customers to your actual store location. Significant distances between the customer center output and actual store location can illustrate problems with existing store locations.

  • You can create a centroid calculated by a weighted value. If you use a Customer Weight Field, , the geographic center is weighted based on the value of each customer point.

  • Use the Make Clusters option if you wish to create simulated store locations based on the distribution of your customers.This allows you to evaluate existing store locations versus optimal locations by being able to visualize your existing store locations versus the possible locations based on your customer distribution.

  • The output created when using Make Clusters option is an excellent input for the Territory Design tool, where a market may contain customers but doesn't contain seed points. This allows virtual seed points to be generated based on customer distribution.

  • The Make Clusters option uses the K-means algorithm for calculating centroids of clusters.

ПараметрОбъяснениеТип данных
CustomerLayer

The input feature layer. This point layer is usually a customer layer.

Feature Layer
LinkField

The store ID field in the customer layer that assigns each customer to a store location.

Field
CustomerWeightField

The numeric field used in the calculation to determine the mean store center.

Field
OutputFeatureClass

The new feature class that will contain the mean center for customer locations.

Feature Class
UseSelectedFeatures
(Дополнительный)

The features used to generate the mean centers.

  • True —Generates the mean store center using only the selected features.
  • False —Generates the mean store center using all features. This is the default.
Boolean
InNeedReportOutput
(Дополнительный)

The option to output a mean store center report.

  • CREATE_REPORT —A mean store center report will be generated.
  • DONT_CREATE_REPORT —A mean store center report will not be generated. This is the default.
Boolean
InputFeatureLayer
(Дополнительный)

The input feature layer containing the center points (typically store points) that will be used in calculating the distance from the mean store center.

Feature Layer
IDField
(Дополнительный)

Field used to uniquely identify each store.

Field
DistanceCalculateMethod
(Дополнительный)

The method used to calculate the distance between existing stores and the mean store center.

  • DRIVE_TIME —Driving time measured in units of time.
  • DRIVE_DISTANCE —Driving distance measured in units of distance.

Folder
InMakeClusters
(Дополнительный)

Will use a K-means algorithm to generate mean store centers based on customer file.

  • TRUE —Generates multiple mean store centers based on customer point clusters.
  • FALSE —Will generate a single mean store center on customers. This is the default.
Boolean
InClustersCount
(Дополнительный)

Determines the number of clusters generated based on customer file. The default is 10.
