I have a problem determining the length of the routes (boat) I've surveyed in order to calculate the survey effort. I added the GPS points of the boat and then used the points to line tool and added a field in the attribute table with the length of each route. Then I used the steps described by PolyGeo♦ here: Calculating density map of cycleways using fishnet in ArcGIS Desktop? but for some reason it doesn't work for me, I only get zeros and not the length per grid cell. Any ideas why that might be?

    Actually, I just solved that problem myself - by adding a field to the attribute table of the intersected routes by fishnet polygon ID and caculated the geometry and now I have the length of the route per gridcel! :) – Saskia Cathrin Martin Nov 8 '18 at 13:29
