Specifying a buffer distance in a boundary search - GeoTAX_Premium - 7.7

You can specify the distance, in feet, to use as a buffer around polygons defined in the standard boundary files or a user-defined boundary file. This is an optional comparison between a point and the buffered zone. The returned data will indicate whether the point is inside the polygon, inside the polygon but in the buffered zone, or outside the polygon but still inside the buffered zone (as shown in the following illustration):

To define the buffer distance for the boundary files (SPD, IPD, PTC & PAY), use the following:

To define the buffer distance with a user-defined boundary file, use the following:

The results for the point comparison to a buffered area on a boundary is covered in Distance & status returns for a point comparison to a boundary.
