Added example results from latest operations
May 21, 2018 at 13:40 comment added PolyGeo I think figuring out how to use Geometry to determine whether a polygon has an internal gap (making it a donut polygon) should be the basis of a separate more focused question. It's not one I already know the answer to but I would expect it to be answerable.

Added a potential fix and why it doesn't quite fit my needs.
May 21, 2018 at 13:28 comment added SMiller @PolyGeo could you expand on your suggestion to use Geometry to indicate polgyons with gaps?

May 18, 2018 at 20:14 comment added Keagan Allan Ok. I see now why my answer wouldn't help
May 18, 2018 at 20:08 comment added PolyGeo I think I understand what you are trying to do. First I would add an integer field for HasGap and use an UpdateCursor and Geometry to update with 1 for polygons with gaps. Use Select to pull out polys with no gaps into new FC. On one gapped polygon at a time use Select, Union with no gaps, Append to complete the no gaps FC.

Removed other tools to focus on a solution in ArcGIS Pro/arcpy.
May 18, 2018 at 19:30 comment added SMiller Thanks @PolyGeo. Ideally, I want ArcGIS Pro so I can keep in one script.
May 18, 2018 at 19:20 comment added PolyGeo Please try to focus this question on a single GIS product and if you want to also ask about alternatives you are welcome to do that in different questions. That way you can be more detailed (tools and parameter values) about the workflow you have tried and are stuck on. The solution may be similar for ArcGIS Pro and ArcGIS Desktop 10.x but I would also focus on one or the other.

May 18, 2018 at 17:03 comment added Keagan Allan What license do you have? I am replying through the app. But I'll post a workflow to try.
May 18, 2018 at 16:48 comment added SMiller That would be appreciated; I will need to do this for several thousand locations so I'm looking for a method I can automate easily (not via a manual edit session.)
May 18, 2018 at 16:43 comment added Keagan Allan I can type up a proper work flow if you want a more robust technique?
May 18, 2018 at 16:42 comment added Keagan Allan Ok. That gap is no data. You just need to delete the vertices to close the polygon.
May 18, 2018 at 16:41 comment added SMiller Thanks @Keagan Allen. I tried the dissolve tool but wound up with the same polygon - the interior gap was not removed.

May 18, 2018 at 15:35 comment added Keagan Allan Have you considered the dissolve tool? Assigning common field values to rows you want combined and then dissolving?

additional tag; added use of arcpy.
