Set Territory Level Options (Territory Design)

ArcGIS Pro 3.4 | | Help archive

Available with Business Analyst license.

Summary

Sets options for how territory levels are created.

Usage

  • A Compactness parameter value of 100 is a circle where all parameters are satisfied.

  • A low compactness value means variables and preferences are satisfied, but shape is compromised.

  • The Fill Extent Automatically parameter assigns features to their closest territories regardless of the constraint parameters.

  • By default, a random number generator is used to designate the seed value.

  • The Random Number Generator Seed parameter uses the ACM-collected algorithm 599 algorithm to produce random territories. To generate consistent territories, use an integer value greater than or equal to 0.

Parameters

LabelExplanationData Type
Input Territory Solution

The Territory Design solution layer that will be used in the analysis.

Group Layer; Feature Dataset; String
Level

The level to which the options will be applied.

String
Compactness
(Optional)

A numeric value between 0 and 100 that defines the shape of territories.

Long
Fill Extent Automatically
(Optional)

Specifies whether features are automatically assigned to the nearest territory.

  • Checked—Features are automatically assigned to the nearest territory.
  • Unchecked—Features are not automatically assigned to the nearest territory. This is the default.
Boolean
Random Number Generator Seed
(Optional)

An integer used for the seed value. The default is no value and uses a random generator.

Long
Spatial Relationship
(Optional)

Specifies the spatial relationship of how features are related to determine adjacency.

  • Contiguity Edges OnlyPolygon features that share a boundary or share a node with neighboring features.
String
Buffer Tolerance
(Optional)

The distance between features to determine adjacency. Features that are within the buffer tolerance are considered adjacent features.

Linear Unit
