The Tabulate Intersection tool outputs which of the following?

  1. Area, length, or count of intersecting features

  2. Coordinates of each feature

  3. Only area measurements

  4. A visual graph of intersections

The correct answer is: Area, length, or count of intersecting features

The Tabulate Intersection tool is designed to summarize the characteristics of features from two different datasets that intersect in space. This tool primarily outputs quantitative data that can include the area, length, or count of the intersecting features. It calculates and provides information on how many features from one layer intersect with another and can summarize both features' attributes. For example, if you have two polygon layers, the tool can tell you how many features from one layer intersect with each feature in the other layer, and can provide statistical summaries of the intersecting areas or lengths. Thus, the correct answer accurately represents the primary functionality and output of the Tabulate Intersection tool. The other options do not align with the outputs of the tool. While coordinates of features may be part of the underlying data, they are not the primary output of this specific tool. The tool also does not exclusively focus on area measurements nor does it generate visual graphs of intersections, which means those choices do not reflect its intended use and outputs effectively.
