The output value is based on the ratio in which the input feature geometry was divided. When Use Ratio Policy is enabled, whenever a feature in an overlay operation is split, the attributes of the resulting features are a ratio of the attribute value of the input feature. However, if the input is a layer or layers created by the Make Feature Layer tool and a field's Use Ratio Policy is checked, then a ratio of the input attribute value is calculated for the output attribute value. Point features clipped with point features:Īttribute values from the input feature classes will be copied to the output feature class. Line features clipped with line features: Point features clipped by polygon features: Line features clipped by polygon features: For more details, see Geoprocessing with large datasets. This tool will use a tiling process to handle very large datasets for better performance and scalability. The Output Feature Class will contain all the attributes of the Input Features. When clipping point features with line features, only the points that are coincident with the line features are written to the output. When clipping point features with point features, only the coincident points are written to the output, as shown in the graphic below. When the Input Features are points, the Clip Features can be points, lines, or polygons.When clipping line features with line features, only the coincident lines or line segments are written to the output, as shown in the graphic below. When the Input Features are lines, the Clip Features can be lines or polygons.When the Input Features are polygons, the Clip Features must also be polygons.The Clip Features can be points, lines, and polygons, depending on the Input Features type. This is particularly useful for creating a new feature class-also referred to as study area or area of interest (AOI)-that contains a geographic subset of the features in another, larger feature class. Use this tool to cut out a piece of one feature class using one or more of the features in another feature class as a cookie cutter. Extracts input features that overlay the clip features.
