Find Overlaps (AllSource)

ArcGIS Pro 3.4 | | Help archive

Summary

Finds overlapping areas in a feature class and provides a count for the number of overlaps.

Usage

  • The Input Features parameter value must be a simple polygon feature class. Complex features such as annotation classes and utility networks are not supported.

  • Features in the Input Features parameter value with the same Group Field parameter field values will be intersected together; other areas are ignored.

  • One centroid is created for the intersection of each group in the Output Centroid features.

  • The Output Intersections parameter value will include a field named overlaps that represents the count of overlapping polygons from the Input Features parameter value.

  • If the Group Field parameter is not specified, all input areas will be intersected and a single centroid created.

  • Null values and empty string values in the Group Field parameter are ignored and not included in the analysis.

  • Any area that is occupied by two or more features is considered an overlap. Features in a group are considered separately from features in other groups. Single features cannot overlap.
