Hi community,

I have something very simple so it seems, but I can't figure out how it's done. I have area features A and area features B. I would like to calculate an attribute per feature from A which contains the calculated from the overlapping feature B. This should be very simple and it normally is. I would use the Clipper en calcultate the areas comming from the inside port. Or I would use the AreaOnAreaOverlayer and test the number of overlaps > 1.

The problem is that within A features can have overlap. Features B don't overlap themselves. So some area's of B have to be calculated per overlapping feature A. The Clipper doesn't give me overlapping areas and in the AreaOnAreaOverlayer I can not distinct A from B.

Anyone any idea how to solve this?

 

Greetings,

Arno

Hi @arnovananrooij

I suggest you to use the custom transform MultiClipper and after AreaCalculator.

 

Thanks in Advance,

Thanks, that worked like a charm! Didn't know about the MultiClipper.
