An overview of the Find Locations toolset

This toolset is used to identify areas that meet a number of different criteria you specify. The criteria can be based on attribute queries (for example, parcels that are vacant) and spatial queries (for example, within 1 kilometer of a river). The areas that are found can be selected from existing features (such as existing land parcels), or new features can be created where all the requirements are met.

This toolset uses distributed processing to complete analytics on your GeoAnalytics Server.
