Find objects that lie within a polygon - Overlays (3)

In this third example on spatial analysis using Overlays in ‘Spatial Manager’ we will apply the “Intersect” operator. This operator determines the geometries that overlap in the Source and Overlay object groups. Anything that does not overlap is discarded from... more


Clip geometries by a geometric area - Overlays (2)

In this second post dealing with Overlays in ‘Spatial Manager’, we will analyze another interesting operator (Clip), which creates objects from the areas of the Source that overlap with the Overlay. Use Clip in order to find objects that lie... more


Erase polygon parts using overlay functions - Overlays (1)

This post starts a series dedicated to one of the most powerful geometric and data-driven analysis tools included in ‘Spatial Manager’: the Overlay command. There are several operators to apply in the Overlay function, but they always have in common... more
