What is proximity tool?
The Proximity toolset contains tools that are used to determine the proximity of features within one or more feature classes or between two feature classes. These tools can identify features that are closest to one another or calculate the distances between or around them.
Why a buffer is useful for proximity analysis?
Buffers are sometimes used to clip data to a given study area or to exclude features within a critical distance of something from further consideration in an analysis. Buffer and Multiple Ring Buffer create area features at a specified distance (or several specified distances) around the input features.
How do you do the swipe widget?

How does the near tool work in ArcGIS?
Unlike the Near tool, which modifies the input, Generate Near Table writes results to a new stand-alone table and supports finding more than one near feature. Creates multiple buffers at specified distances around the input features.
