• Spatial operations:
Buffer
Buffschool
Step 2
Criteria concerned new school:
• Location Not in use by
– Businesses (business areas)
• Spatial operations:
Union
Areas_to_Exclude
Step 3
Criteria concerned new school:
• At a distance between 500 and 1000
metres of the main roads
• Spatial operations:
Buffer
Buff_Roads
Step 4
Criteria concerned new school:
• Not in use by
– Forest (forest areas)
• Spatial operations:
Clip
(Within_areas)
At this point you have two layers identifying
areas:
• areas in which a school cannot be located
(Areas_to_Exclude)
• areas in which a school can be located
(Within_areas)
(Areas_to_Exclude) (Within_areas)
Step 5
• In this part you will exclude the areas_to_exclude from the
within_areas
• Criteria concerned:
• At a distance of more than 1.5 Kilometres from existing
schools
• At a distance between 500 and 1000 metres of the main
roads
• Not in use by
– Businesses (business areas)
– Forest (forest areas)
• Spatial operation
• Erase
(Suit 1)
Step 6
• At this point you have one layer identifying
areas potential suitable for a school, but only
those (sub)areas are of interest where there is
a ‘high’ amount of young people (15 – 19
years old)
• Spatial operation
Dissolve
Intersect
• Add the table population and the feature
class Neighbourhoods
• Perform the join based on the attribute
Neighb_ID in Neighbourhoods and
Neighb_ID in the table population
• From ArcToolbox select data management
tools - generalization – dissolve
• Select neighbourhoods as layer to dissolve
• Specify Quarter_youngpop as output layer
• The dissolve field is
Neighbourhoods.Quarter_ID
• The statistics field is Population.B1519_98
and the statistics type is sum
Quarter_youngpop
