Label | Explanation | Data Type |
Input Layer
| The point, polyline, or polygon features to be buffered. | Feature Set |
Output Name
|
The name of the output feature service. | String |
Method
| Specifies the method that will be used to create the buffer.
| String |
Buffer Type
(Optional) | Specifies how the buffer distance will be defined.
| String |
Buffer Field
(Optional) | The field that contains the buffer distance for each feature. If a field value is a number, it is assumed that the distance is in the linear unit of the Input Layer spatial reference, unless the Input Layer is in a geographic coordinate system, in which case, the value is assumed to be in meters. If the linear unit specified in the field values is invalid or not recognized, the linear unit of the input features' spatial reference will be used by default. | Field |
Buffer Distance
(Optional) | The distance around the input features that will be buffered. Distance can be expressed in meters, kilometers, feet, yards, miles, or nautical miles. | Linear Unit |
Buffer Expression
(Optional) | An equation using fields and mathematical operators that will be applied as a buffer to each feature. Fields must be numeric, and the expression can include [+ - * / ] operators and multiple fields. Calculated values are applied in meters unless otherwise specified. For example, apply a buffer that multiples a numeric field named distance in kilometers by 2 and adds 15 meters. ArcGIS Enterprise 10.5 and 10.5.1 expressions are formatted as as_kilometers(distance) * 2 + as_meters(15). For ArcGIS Enterprise 10.6 or later, use an Arcade expression such as as_kilometers($feature["distance"]) * 2 + as_meters(15). If the layer is added to the map, the Fields and Helpers filters can be used to build an expression. | Calculator Expression |
Dissolve Option
(Optional) | Specifies the dissolve option that will be used to remove buffer overlap.
| String |
Dissolve Fields
(Optional) | A list of one or more fields from the input features on which output buffers will be dissolved. Any buffers sharing attribute values in the listed fields will be dissolved. This option is only required when Dissolve Option is List. | Field |
Summary Fields
(Optional) | Specifies statistics that can be applied to numeric and string fields. If left empty, only count will be calculated. These statistics are only applied when Dissolve Option is List or All.
| Value Table |
Multipart
(Optional) | Specifies whether multipart features will be created.
| Boolean |
Data Store
(Optional) | Specifies the ArcGIS Data Store where the output will be saved. The default is Spatiotemporal big data store. All results stored in a spatiotemporal big data store will be stored in WGS84. Results stored in a relational data store will maintain their coordinate system.
