Identity

Assigns attributes from one layer to the overlapping features of another layer. An output dataset with attributes selected from both input layers will be created. Selecting only the fields that you need in the output feature class may significantly speed up processing.

Parameter	Comments
Input features <in_features>	The input point, polyline or polygon features that the Identity operation will be applied to.
Input fields {source_fields;source_fields...}	Attribute fields of the input feature class that will be transferred to the output feature class.
Overlay features <identity_features>	Overlay features that will be used for Identity operation: points, polylines or polygons (for input points) polylines or polygons (for input polylines) polygons only (for input polygons)
Overlay fields {identity_fields;identity_fields...}	Attribute fields of the overlay feature class that will be transferred to the output feature class.
Output feature class <out_feature_class>	Output feature class that will contain input features with the attributes selected from the input and overlay feature classes.
Input ID field {source_id_field}	Specify the ID field for the input features.
Overlay ID field {identity_id_field}	Specify the ID field for the overlay features.
Tolerance {tolerance}	Specify the minimum distance that may be separating input and overlay feature coordinates.
