4.7 SLIDE Vectors - Spatial Congruence

  • y (aggregating object) is … to target object (x)

    • Congruent - two objects have shared borders

    • Incongruent - do not share common borders

  • Solution - area weighted spatial interpolation

    • transfers values from the incongruent object to a new column in aggregating_zones in proportion with the area of overlap: the larger the spatial intersection between input and output features,

    • st_interpolate_aw()
