ArcGIS Pro Spatial Join or Relate?

Video #105
In this video I:
- Use a Spatial Join to add a column from a polygon layer (postcodes) to a point layer (pubs)
- I then use Add Relate to show the difference between JOIN and RELATE
- Finally, I create a Relationship Class, stored in the file geodatabase.

Key points to remember are:
1. A JOIN uses a common field to associate records from one table to another. Its more aimed at a 1-to-1 relationship. A Spatial Join always creates an output feature class
2. Relates define the actual relationship between 2 tables. No data is appended and you select a record to access the related data. Its basically a sort of 'live link'. Good way to represent a 1-to-Many relationship.

Congratulations on the video, it was very good and thorough. I have a request for you, since only you can enlighten us on this difficult topic: Could you explain the ulity network, perhaps for telecommunication networks? Thank you so much you are bravoism, I write from Italy, but here nobody can explain as well as you!
