MI-L compact (shrink wrap) convex hull
Hello all, Does anyone know of a utility or a way to create a "compact" or "shrink wrap" convex hull from a selection of a street network? I need to create a region (polygon) that contains only selected streets (to be used to qualify customers for services). The convex hull routine in MI creates a general convex hull but I'm looking for something that will snap to the extents of every segment, so that my boundary does not select streets (and potential geocodes) from outside of the target area. I used VM to turn the lines into points (for every nodes) thinking that the convex hull routine may honour all point extents but it did not (same results as with lines). TIA!! Frank __ Do You Yahoo!?
