Hi
I have two datasets, one water distribution area in polygons, and a point layer with the count of people inside each household per adress.
i want to count up the sum of people in total for an each area.
The count of people is in the point layer. i have tried the pointoverareaoverlayer but i only get the count of points inside an area, not the count from people inside the area
If you build a list containing the population attribute in the PointOnAreaOverlayer (tick Generate List On Output 'Area'), you can then use a ListSummer to sum all those values
Thanks for the answer i still struggle to make it run propperly.
do i have to cross of for group by mode?

There is no attribute on the Points features you might use to group by.
So in this case there is no need for Group Processing.
@elarse4 If it's a bigger dataset, then creating the list might get a bit unmanageable. In this case use the PointOnAreaOverlayer as @geomancer suggests, but don't generate the list. Just transfer the polygon ID to each point. Then use the StatisticsCalculator on the points, with Group By : Polygon ID to sum up your population count

Hi figured it out i enden up using spatial relation so the polygon ID got transfered to the points and then i used the statistics calculator as mentioned in the post under.
after that i used a feature manager so write the groups to the polygons again so i could export it to a shape file.
thanks for the answers

this is what i ended up doing.
