The latitude, also in decimal degrees, will wary according to the objects latitude. I believe the sketch solution above is valid. But if other options are there (for ArcGIS or QGIS I am all ears.

Polygons residing in shapefiles only. I am aware of a solution available using PostGIS: gis.stackexchange.com/questions/32052/…

Using the centroid would be ok. This time I need this to have the object names in a proper order.

comment How to divide a feature class into ranges?
I am doing this one working with shapefiles, so it works for me. Not the ideal thing to do considering the vast options available in PostGIS. But quick and dirty does it this time :-)

I have failed to find the referred to error code while googling it. Puzzled by this. It could be an ESRI internal reference.

Simplified the geometry. Didnt help. It seems like a certain number of overlapping features leads to this error. Norwegian customer contact at geodata.no referred to it as: "NIM079373: Running a large number of features through the Dissolve or Buffer with dissolve option, hangs during process" Supposed to be fixed for 10.1 sp1, but they failed to do so.

rows = arcpy.UpdateCursor(full_buffer_temp) can be used to iterate through the features. So I need to push the features into a separate file. Close it and start anew.

Thankyou - your code does the handling of the logic nicely. But the retrieval of the n features using arcpy still remains as a challenge.

Did that. And they merged together rather nicely. Still the colours are bland. I am sure if I messed around with the symbology long enough I would get there. But having an auto adjust for "natural colors" would be better in this case.
