Why is zonal statistics not working?

If the raster cell size is larger than a given boundary, there may be no cells with centroids within the boundary, and hence no statistics or inaccurate statistics are produced for that zone.
 

How do I get zonal statistics in Qgis?

Input your raster layer in the Raster layer parameter as well as your vector layer in the Vector layer containing zones parameter. Next, in the Statistics to calculate parameter, select the stats you want to generate (this will vary in accordance to your project).
 

How do you use zonal statistics?

Zonal Statistics uses groupings to calculate statistics for specified zones. For example, it can calculate the mean, median, sum, minimum, maximum, or range in each zone. The zonal extent could include anything from country boundaries, watershed catchment areas, or property parcels as a vector or raster dataset.
 

What is count in zonal statistics?

What you are looking for is COUNT, which is the frequency of the cells that you processed through Zonal Statistics. Sum, on the other hand, is the sum of cell values covered by your polygon. Overly simplistically, say, your cell values are 2,1,3,4,4 in this case COUNT is 5 and SUM is 14.

Why do we use zonal statistics?

You use the Zonal Statistics function to find trends in data within zones defined by another raster or vector dataset. In this way, the areas of analysis are fixed or constrained by the shape and location of the zones. Instead of a new raster, the Zonal Statistics function produces a table of statistics and a graph.

What is zonal function?

Zonal statistic function summarizes the values of a raster within the zones of another dataset (either raster or vector) and reports the results as a table.

What is a zonal histogram?

A zonal histogram allows you to investigate the frequency distribution of values in one dataset within classes of another dataset. Examples include slope distribution within land use classes, rainfall distribution within elevation classes, or crime distribution by police beat.
