I have a situation in which I have both network buffers and circular buffers around the same points (as separate feature classes), and I want to merge the buffers and dissolve into one polygon for each point.
The complication arises in that some of the points are close together so their buffers overlap; thus when I dissolve, both the network and circular buffers dissolve, but also the boundaries between buffers that are close together. But I need to maintain one row for each point feature.
Image shows the overlap between network and circular buffers, but also points with overlapping buffers.
