This tool will calculate the distances between all features in one or more feature classes, optionally restricting the analysis to only features within a specified distance of each other. Output options include a dBASE table with the number of features within the specified distance, a dBASE table listing the pairwise distances between each pair of features, and/or an ASCII text file listing the distances between each pair of features.

These outputs may be useful for many types of analysis, but they have been specifically formatted to be used within the Conefor Sensinode Habitat Connectivity tools (see http://www.conefor.org/).

Requires: ArcGIS 9.1 or better (at any license level) or ArcGIS 10.

For detailed instructions on installation and operation, view the on-line PDF version of Conefor Inputs Manual.
