I have two shape files, call them A and B. I need to: (1) find out the features in B that are "near" to each feature in A. (2) Interrogate an attribute value of these "near" features and pick the highest value.
I actually figured out how to do it, but I don't think I am doing it "right", i.e. using all the tools at my disposal. My steps are: (1) creat up geometry filter to find features in B close to A (2) loop thru each feature in A to find these "near" B features (3) when one is found, interrogate attribute value and establish if it's a new max I get the nagging feeling that I dont' need to do this looping and that - moreover - I can have yet another filter which looks for my max value. I've tried a few things with little success. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
