Results for a comparison between a point and a buffered boundary zone (see Specifying a buffer distance in a boundary search) include the distance of the point to the polygon and the status of the point location relative to the polygon. As shown in the illustrations below, the status indicates whether the point is inside the polygon, inside the polygon but in the buffered zone, or outside the polygon and inside the buffered zone
