Subject: MI-L Extracting Polygon Centroids


Hi All!!,

 

I have a couple of hundred polygons and I need to calculate drivetimes to their 
centroids. Problem is I haven't got their centroids. Is there a way of calculating the 
centroids and outputting them as a list of points but maintaining the attributes of 
the polygons??

 

Thanks for all your help,

 

- john
