Label | Explanation | Data Type |
Input Facility Features
| An input point feature layer representing existing facility locations. It is the first feature from the layer or the feature selected when a selection is available. | Feature Layer |
Facility ID Field
| A unique ID field for existing facilities. | Field |
Input Candidate Features
| An input point feature layer representing new candidate facility locations. It is the first feature from the layer or the feature selected when a selection is available. | Feature Layer |
Candidate ID Field
| A unique ID field for candidate facilities. | Field |
Input Sales Potential Features
| An input point or polygon feature layer used to calculate the sales potential. It is either all features from a layer or only selected features when a selection is available. | Feature Layer |
Sales Potential ID Field
| A unique ID field for sales potential features. | Field |
Sales Potential Field
| The field containing the values that will be used to calculate the sales potential. | Field |
Output feature Class
| The output feature class that will contain the tool results representing the probability of sales. | Feature Class |
Attractiveness Variables
| The attribute fields that indicate the attractiveness of each competitor. In many cases, the size of the facility is used as a substitute for attractiveness and will be a multivalue table. An additional attractiveness variable is needed. The attractiveness field must be present in the existing facilities (competitors) and the candidate facilities layer.
| Value Table |
Distance Exponent
| The distance exponent is generally a negative number because attractiveness decreases when distance increases. The default value is -1.5. | Double |
Distance Type
(Optional) | The type of distance, based on method of travel, that will be used. The default value is Straight Line. | String |
Distance Units
(Optional) | The distance-measuring units that will be used when calculating distance. | String |
Output Distance Matrix
(Optional) | The name and location of the matrix table of distance calculations. The IDs for the Input Facilitates Features and Input Candidate Features parameters must be unique. | Table |
Travel Direction
(Optional) | Specifies the direction of travel that will be used between stores and sales potential features.
| String |
Time of Day
(Optional) | The time and date that will be used when calculating distance. | Date |
Time Zone
(Optional) | Specifies the time zone that will be used for the Time of Day parameter.
| String |
