HOW TO FIND NUMBER OF HOUSES WITHIN ROAD BUFFER ZONE | ARCGIS | GEOMATICS ENGINEERING

Buffer is a powerful tool in GIS and essential for planner. This tool is one of the best tool for proximity analysis. Many new and upgrading road project requires the information about loss of households and agricultural land throughout the Right of Way of the road. For this simply center line of the feature is used for buffering. Finally the buffer polygon is used to clip the feature of interest within the buffer zone.

If interested, in QGIS (but it might work in ArcGIS too) you can use Virtual Layers to do the same, this is the query:
SELECT count(b.geometry) AS qty
FROM settlement AS b, ringroad AS r
WHERE st_intersects(b.geometry,st_buffer(r.geometry,30));
No intermediate layers or processing tools required, but make sure both geometries use same projection
If you need to create a geometry layer using the same condition change SELECT to:
SELECT b.geometry as geometry
Hope it helps, cheers
