A common task is to calculate the percentage overlap between a polygon feature class overlaying another polygon feature class. One general workflow is to use the (Pairwise) Intersect tool with the Join Attributes parameter set to Only feature IDs, add a field to store the percentage overlap attributes, join the underlay polygons to the output […]

Not the most fanciest of tools but another one none-the-less that you can by-pass the Advanced license requirement and create your own tool using ArcPy. The Feature Envelope To Polygon (Data Management) is only available in ArcGIS Pro with an Advanced license. You can achieve quite similar to this tool using the Minimum Bounding Geometry

This one re-uses plenty of lines of code from the Split Line at Vertices tool. The Split Line at Point (Data Management) geoprocessing tool is only available in ArcGIS Pro with an Advanced license. Here’s how you can use ArcPy to achieve a similar output (if not the exact same for this one!). Check out

This was a fun one to do! The Feature Vertices to Points (Data Management) geoprocessing tool is only available in ArcGIS Pro with an Advanced license. Here’s how you can use ArcPy to achieve a similar output. Check out the Esri documentation for more information on the tool here. This workflow was created using ArcGIS Pro

The Split Line at Vertices (Data Management) geoprocessing tool is only available in ArcGIS Pro with an Advanced license. Here’s how you can use ArcPy to achieve a similar output. While the Advanced tool will take a linear or polygon feature class as input, here, we will only look at splitting linear features. Check out
