Where do lines touch on a polygon boundary?
The output point features are where line endpoints touch at a point on the polygon boundary and where lines cross polygon boundaries. No points are generated in the output where lines lie directly along polygon boundaries. The graphic below illustrates the result of intersecting point, line, and polygon feature classes.
How are polygons intersect in ArcGIS help 10.1?
This can be useful to discover polygon overlap and line intersections (as points or lines). Polygons can intersect in three ways: Overlap—Area of overlap can be produced by leaving the Output Type to its default value (LOWEST). Common boundary/touch at a line—This type of intersection can be produced by specifying LINE as the Output Type.
What happens to the Point class in intersect?
No points are generated in the output where lines lie directly along polygon boundaries. The graphic below illustrates the result of intersecting point, line, and polygon feature classes. The output can only be a point feature class.
What kind of geometry can be used in intersect?
The inputs can be any combination of geometry types (point, multipoint, line, or polygon). The output geometry type can only be of the same geometry or a geometry of lower dimension as the input feature class with the lowest dimension geometry (point = 0 dimension, line = 1 dimension, and poly = 2 dimension).
How are buffer polygons created in ArcGIS Pro?
Creates buffer polygons around input features to a specified distance. As described in How Buffer works, an important feature of the Buffer tool is the Method parameter which determines how buffers are constructed. There are two basic methods for constructing buffers: Euclidean and geodesic.
What happens when you intersect two polygon classes?
The graphic below illustrates the result of intersecting two polygon feature classes with the Output Type parameter set to LINE. The output line features are where a polygon from one of the input feature classes share a common boundary (intersect at a line) with a polygon from the other input feature class.
What happens when you intersect two line feature classes?
The graphic below illustrates the result of intersecting two line feature classes with the Output Type parameter set to either LOWEST or LINE. The output line features are where a line from one of the input feature classes overlaps a feature from the other input feature class.
