Kernel Density with quantity values in bands

How is Kernel Density measured? The KDE is calculated by weighting the distances of all the data points we’ve seen for each location on the blue line. If we’ve seen more points nearby, the estimate is higher, indicating that probability of seeing a point at that location. What do Kernel Density values mean? Kernel Density

Sorting out curved and straight lines in QGIS

How do I curve a line in Qgis? To convert your straight lines to curved arrows, you’ll need to add a middle vertex to every line, and then offset that vertex enough to generate a curved arrow. Use the Geometry Generator style with Geometry type: Linestring.  How do I draw a curved polygon in Qgis?

What does the “Standard Distance” output from the spatial point pattern analysis in QGIS 2 represent?

What is spatial point pattern analysis? Spatial point-pattern analysis has a long history in plant ecology and is based on a large set of test statistics known as summary statistics (Perry et al. 2006). They aim to evaluate and describe statistical properties and spatial structure of point patterns (Wiegand and Moloney 2014).  What is spatial

Rapid digitizing of Point Data using ArcGIS Desktop?

How do you digitize points in ArcGIS? The digitizing process is started by creating new layers in ArcCatalog, and then adding features to them in ArcMap. Creating an empty shapefile. Open ArcCatalog. Add a new filed in the Attribute Table. Return to ArcMap, and add your new shapefile to the Data Frame (TOC). Digitizing Wards

Make a Loop for Monthly NDVI in Google Earth Engine?

How do you use loops in Google Earth Engine? For Loops. The use of for-loops is discouraged in Earth Engine. The same results can be achieved using a map() operation where you specify a function that can be independently applied to each element. This allows the system to distribute the processing to different machines.  How

How to get the polygon vs. Polygon Intersection Coordinates using python

How do you find the intersection of two polygons in Python? intersection() is used to get the intersection of a given polygon and the given geometry entity. The geometry entity can be a point, line, polygon, or other geometric figures. The intersection may be empty if the polygon and the given geometry entity are not

Checking availability of ET Geowizards license

How do I add ET GeoWizards to ArcMap? If you want to use ET GeoWizards from within ArcMap you need to register the ET GeoWizards for Desktop Add-In. Find the ET GeoWizards 12 Program Group (see above) Click on Register ETGW Add In for ArcGIS Desktop. If you have ArcGIS Desktop installed the Installation Utility

Extract Polygon Coordinates from Shapefile data

How do I extract coordinates from a shapefile? Export coordinates Click the Export button in the Coordinate Conversion pane. Click the button for the format to which to export the collected coordinates—this could be feature class, shapefile, KMZ, or CSV—and click OK. Browse to the location where you want to store the output and click

Is it possible to run the address locator in ArcGIS via Python?

How do I use address Locator in ArcGIS? To open the dialog box in ArcCatalog or the ArcMap Catalog window, right-click a file folder or geodatabase, and click New > Address Locator. To open the dialog box using a geoprocessing tool, browse to the Geocoding Tools toolbox in the Catalog window and double-click the Create

Calculate velocity x and y components from Lat,Lon and Time

How do you find velocity with latitude and longitude? First we plot the two GPS points on a spherical model of the earth, then calculate the angle between them using a dot product, then calculate the ‘Great Circle’ distance using this angle and the earth’s radius and finally we divide by the elapsed time to
