Output from Generate Service Areas
Upon successful execution, the service returns the service areas around the facilities, the output facilities, and the status indicating the analysis was successful using the following output parameters:
service_areas
It provides access to polygon features that represent areas that can be reached from the input locations with a given travel time, travel distance, or travel cost.
The Geometry at Overlaps, Geometry at Cutoff, Polygon Detail, Polygon Trim Distance, and Polygon Simplification Tolerance parameters influence the shape of the output service areas.
The following table lists the fields that are returned for output service areas. In addition to these fields, the parameter also includes all the fields from the input feature class used as facilities for the analysis when generating overlapping or nonoverlapping polygons.
|
Field |
Description |
|---|---|
|
|
The name of the service area. It is based on the name of the associated facility and the cutoffs; for example, The break values are returned without the name of the facility, for example, |
|
|
The unique identifier of the associated facility that is automatically generated by the analysis. Multiple facilities may be associated with one service area when the Geometry at Overlaps parameter is set to Merge by Break Value; |
|
|
The Multiple facilities may be associated with one service area when the Geometry at Overlaps parameter is set to Merge by Break Value; |
|
|
The lower bound of the service area's impedance cutoff range. The unit for this field is based on the unit of the impedance attribute set for the analysis. The value is in the units specified by the Break Units parameter. |
|
|
The upper bound of the service area's impedance cutoff range. The value is in the same units as the |

output_facilities
This provides access to the attributes of the facilities that are used in the service area analysis. You can use the attributes from this data type, such as the Status field, to determine why a facility was not used in the analysis.
The parameter supports the following fields. In addition to these fields, the data type also includes all the fields from the input facilities used for the analysis.

The numeric identifier of the network dataset source feature class on which the input point is located. |
|
|
The ObjectID of the feature in the source on which the input point is located. |
|
|
The position along the digitized direction of the source line feature. This value is stored as a ratio. This field is null if the network location references a junction. |
|
|
The side of the edge in relation to the digitized direction of the line feature. This field is limited to a domain of two values: Right Side (1) and Left Side (2). |

Specifies the status of the point with respect to its location on the network and the outcome of the analysis. The possible values are the following:
|
|
|
The x-coordinate of the position on the network dataset where the point was located, in the coordinate system of the network dataset. |
|
|
The y-coordinate of the position on the network dataset where the point was located, in the coordinate system of the network dataset. |
|
|
The z-coordinate of the position on the network dataset where the point was located, in the coordinate system of the network dataset. The |

solve_succeeded
Use this parameter to determine if the analysis was successful.
output_result_file
Use this parameter to access the results from the analysis as a .zip file containing one or more files for each output. The format of the individual file is specified by the Output Format parameter. The parameter value is not populated when the Output Format parameter is set to Feature Set.
When a file-based output format—such as JSON File or GeoJSON File—is specified, no outputs are added to the display, since the application (such as ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro) does not draw the contents of the result file. Instead, the result file is downloaded to a temporary directory on your machine. In ArcGIS Pro, the location of the downloaded file can be determined by viewing the Output Result File parameter value in the entry corresponding to the tool operation in the geoprocessing history of the project. In ArcMap, the location of the file can be determined by accessing the Copy Location option in the shortcut menu of the Output Result File parameter in the entry corresponding to the tool operation in the Geoprocessing Results window.
output_network_analysis_layer
Use this parameter to access the network analysis layer file that stores the analysis settings and the inputs and outputs used for the analysis. The parameter value is populated only when the Save Output Network Analysis Layer parameter is set to True.
The file is downloaded to a temporary directory on your machine. In ArcGIS Pro, the location of the downloaded file can be determined by viewing the Output Network Analysis Layer parameter value in the entry corresponding to the tool operation in the geoprocessing history of the project. In ArcMap, the location of the file can be determined by accessing the Copy Location option in the shortcut menu of the Output Network Analysis Layer parameter in the entry corresponding to the tool operation in the Geoprocessing Results window.
Note:
You cannot work directly with this file even when you open the file in an ArcGIS Desktop application such as ArcMap since its data source will not be valid. The file is meant to be sent to Esri Technical Support to diagnose the quality of results returned from the tool.
