Tools that honor the Coincident Points environment define how coincident data is treated in Geostatistical Analyst.
Usage notes
- When the tool used uses more than one dataset and the datasets have coincident points, the environment setting is applied to all datasets.
Dialog syntax
- Mean of values at coincident locations—The mean of the data at the coincident location will be used. This is the default.
- Exclude all coincident data—Coincident data will be excluded from the analysis.
- Minimum value at coincident locations—The minimum value of the data at the coincident location will be used.
- Maximum value at coincident locations—The maximum value of the data at the coincident location will be used.
- Include all coincident data—All the data will be used.
Scripting syntax
arcpy.env.coincidentPoints = coincidentPoints_option
