Spatial join for adjacent polygons with same attributes

How do you spatial join points to polygons?

To begin making a spatial join between a polygon layer and a point layer, right click on the polygon layer in the table of contents, and choose Joins and Relates>Join. The join dialogue opens. Make sure that in the dropdown at the top you have chosen “Join data from another layer based on spatial location.”

What are the different types of spatial joins?

Spatial Joins

• One-to-one relationship.
• One-to-many relationship or many-to-one relationship.
• Many-to-many relationship.

In which of the following ways does a spatial join differ from an attribute join?

Join by location or spatial join uses spatial associations between the layers involved to append fields from one layer to another. Spatial joins are different from attribute and relationship class joins in that they are not dynamic and require the results to be saved to a new output layer.
