How to use the Intersect Tool in ArcGIS Pro for Spatial Analysis

Welcome to this GIS tutorial where we dive into the Intersect Tool in ArcGIS, one of the most essential geoprocessing tools used in spatial analysis. In this step-by-step demonstration, we explore how to use the intersect tool to determine overlapping areas between two different feature layers, in this case, the distribution of the chinook salmon fish species across watersheds and the boundaries of reserved forest area. We begin by visualizing the data layers in ArcGIS Pro, adjusting symbology and transparency to better understand the spatial relationship between the fish habitat and reserved forest. We then walk through the process of launching the Intersect geoprocessing tool from the Analysis ribbon, selecting input features, and customizing output settings. After running the tool, we inspect the resulting intersected layer. We also open the attribute table to calculate the total area where the fish distribution overlaps with reserved forest areas, demonstrating how to extract statistical summaries directly from spatial data.
