Areal Interpolation Layer To Polygons (Geostatisical Analyst)

License Level:BasicStandardAdvanced

Summary

Reaggregates the predictions of an Areal Interpolation layer to a new set of polygons.

Usage

Syntax

ArealInterpolationLayerToPolygons_ga (in_areal_interpolation_layer, in_polygon_features, out_feature_class, {append_all_fields})
ParameterExplanationData Type
in_areal_interpolation_layer

Input geostatistical layer resulting from an Areal Interpolation model.

Geostatistical Layer
in_polygon_features

The polygons where predictions and standard errors will be aggregated.

Feature Layer
out_feature_class

The output feature class containing the aggregated predictions and standard errors for the new polygons.

Feature Class
append_all_fields
(Optional)

Determines whether all fields will be copied from the input features to the output feature class.

  • ALL All fields from the input features will be copied to the output feature class. This is the default.
  • FID_ONLY Only FID will be copied, and it will be named Source_ID on the output feature class.
Boolean

Code Sample

ArealInterpolationLayerToPolygons example 1 (Python window)

Aggregate areal interpolation predictions to a new set of polygons.

import arcpy
arcpy.env.workspace = "C:/gapyexamples/data"
arcpy.ArealInterpolationLayerToPolygons_ga("AI_layer","new_polys","pred_new_polys","ALL")
ArealInterpolationLayerToPolygons example 2 (stand-alone script)

Aggregate areal interpolation predictions to a new set of polygons.
