I have a large dataset containing intersecting and overlapping lines, and would like to make a raster to sum a certain field in each line over the entire area of my dataset. Much like a density raster, but with a sum rather than density. The line statistics tool should be perfect for this task. Line statistics can generate all kinds of statistical measure, but not sum. I cannot figure out why, and can't find a workaround. I have tried to combine density, count and average and work my way back, but that won't work.
Any thoughts on why line statistics don't have this function, or a workaround?
