Table of Contents Introduction The Central Feature is the point that is the shortest distance to all other points in the dataset and thus identifies the most centrally located feature. The Weighted Central Feature considers weights when calculating the central feature, where points with higher weights have a larger influence on the result. Sources:The Esri Guide

Table of Contents Introduction The “unweighted” mean center is mainly used for events that occur at a place and time such as burglaries. The weighted center, however, is predominantly used for stationary features such as retail outlets or delineated areas for example (such as Census tracts). The Weighted Mean Center does not take into account distance

Table of Contents Introduction The Standard Distance, also know as the Standard Distance Deviation, is the average distance all features vary from the Mean Center and measures the compactness of a distribution. The Standard Distance is a value representing the distance in units from the Mean Center and is usually plotted on a map as a circle for a visual indication of dispersion, the Standard Distance is
