Parameter Type: esriGPParameterTypeRequired
Category:


Parameter: buffer_distance_or_field

Data Type: GPLinearUnit
Display Name Distance [value or field]
Description: The distance around the input features that will be buffered. Distances can be provided as either a value representing a linear distance or as a field from the input features that contains the distance to buffer each feature.If linear units are not specified or are entered as Unknown, the linear unit of the input features' spatial reference is used.
Direction: esriGPParameterDirectionInput
Default Value: 1000.0   (esriMeters)
Parameter Type: esriGPParameterTypeRequired
Category:


Parameter: line_side

Data Type: GPString
Display Name Side Type
Description: The sides of the input features that will be buffered.FULL—For line input features, buffers will be generated on both sides of the line. For polygon input features, buffers will be generated around the polygon and will contain and overlap the area of the input features. For point input features, buffers will be generated around the point. This is the default. LEFT—For line input features, buffers will be generated on the topological left of the line. This option is not valid for polygon input features.RIGHT—For line input features, buffers will be generated on the topological right of the line. This option is not valid for polygon input features.OUTSIDE_ONLY—For polygon input features, buffers will be generated only outside the input polygon (the area inside the input polygon will be erased from the output buffer). This option is not valid for line input features.This optional parameter is not available with a Basic or Standard license.
Direction: esriGPParameterDirectionInput
Default Value: FULL
Parameter Type: esriGPParameterTypeOptional
Category:
Choice List: [ FULL ]

Parameter: line_end_type

Data Type: GPString
Display Name End Type
Description: The shape of the buffer at the end of line input features. This parameter is not valid for polygon input features.ROUND—The ends of the buffer will be round, in the shape of a half circle. This is the default. FLAT—The ends of the buffer will be flat, or squared, and will end at the endpoint of the input line feature. This optional parameter is not available with a Basic or Standard license.
Direction: esriGPParameterDirectionInput
Default Value: ROUND
Parameter Type: esriGPParameterTypeOptional
Category:
Choice List: [ ROUND, FLAT ]

Parameter: dissolve_option

Data Type: GPString
Display Name Dissolve Type
Description: Specifies the dissolve to be performed to remove buffer overlap.NONE—An individual buffer for each feature is maintained, regardless of overlap. This is the default. ALL—All buffers are dissolved together into a single feature, removing any overlap. LIST—Any buffers sharing attribute values in the listed fields (carried over from the input features) are dissolved.
Direction: esriGPParameterDirectionInput
Default Value: NONE
Parameter Type: esriGPParameterTypeOptional
Category:
Choice List: [ NONE, ALL, LIST ]

Parameter: dissolve_field

Data Type: GPMultiValue:GPString
Display Name Dissolve Field(s)
Description: The list of fields from the input features on which to dissolve the output buffers. Any buffers sharing attribute values in the listed fields (carried over from the input features) are dissolved.The Add Field button, which is only used in ModelBuilder, allows expected fields to be added to the Dissolve Field(s) list.
Direction: esriGPParameterDirectionInput
Default Value:
Parameter Type: esriGPParameterTypeOptional
Category:
Choice List: [ OBJECTID, POINTID, GRID_CODE, AOISHPAREA, AOISHPUNIT, AOIREFAREA, AOIREFUNIT, AOI_SQMI, BASIN, awdb_id ]

Parameter: method

Data Type: GPString
Display Name Method
Description: Specifies what method to use, planar or geodesic, to create the buffer.PLANAR—If the input features are in a projected coordinate system, Euclidean buffers are created. If the input features are in a geographic coordinate system and the buffer distance is in linear units (meters, feet, and so forth, as opposed to angular units such as degrees), geodesic buffers are created. This is the default. You can use the Output Coordinate System environment setting to specify the coordinate system to use. For example, if your input features are in a projected coordinate system, you can set the environment to a geographic coordinate system in order to create geodesic buffers. GEODESIC—All buffers are created using a shape-preserving geodesic buffer method, regardless of input coordinate system.
Direction: esriGPParameterDirectionInput
Default Value: PLANAR
Parameter Type: esriGPParameterTypeOptional
