Chapter 6. Analyzing Geographic Data

At some point, after acquiring, preparing, and organizing data to fit your needs, you eventually get to the point where you can actually use this data for some greater good: to form queries, explore, answer questions, test hypotheses, and so on. In this chapter, you will develop some of these capabilities along with their application components, specifically:

  • Create the analysis functionality:

    • Overlay summary and distance buffer for vector data

    • Zonal summary statistics for raster data

  • Add ways to access them through the user interface
