80-20 Analysis

Summary

Creates a graduated symbol layer for points with multiple incidents occurring at or near the same location. This tool also calculates cumulative percentage for 80/20 analysis of problem locations.

Usage

  • Generates a new feature class output and sorts it based on newly generated Cluster Count, Cumulative Percentage, and Percentage fields.
    • The Cluster Count field represents the number of points found within the cluster tolerance for that cluster.
    • The Cumulative Percentage field represents the combined percentage of the current cluster point and all other larger cluster points. This value can be used to do determine if a disproportionate number of cluster locations represent a larger proportion of crimes (for example, 20% of cluster locations contain 80% of total crimes committed).

Syntax

EightyTwentyAnalysis_crime (Input_Point_Features, Output_Feature_Class, Minimum_Cluster_Size, Attributes_to_Preserve, {Cluster_Tolerance})

Parameter Explanation Data Type
Input Point Features Input point features containing incident data to be analyzed. Feature Layer
Output Feature Class Output point cluster feature class. Feature class will be symbolized by the cluster count and will contain attributes from the input points used to create cluster. Feature Class
Minimum Cluster Size Any clusters smaller than the specified size will be removed from the output feature class. Long
Attributes to Preserve Attributes from input features to preserve (for example, a street address). At least one attribute is required. Field (Multiple Value)
Cluster Tolerance (Optional) Linear distance at which input points will be considered part of the same cluster. Linear Unit
