# Clip Analysis
Extract features from a dataset that intersect with a clipping boundary.
## Overview
Clip analysis extracts features that intersect with a clipping boundary, creating a subset of the input dataset.
## Inputs
- **Dataset**: Dataset to clip
- **Clip Geometry**: GeoJSON geometry for clipping boundary
## Outputs
New dataset containing:
- Features that intersect the boundary
- Geometry clipped to boundary
- Original attributes preserved
## Example
```json
{
"dataset_id": 123,
"clip_geometry": {
"type": "Polygon",
"coordinates": [ ... ]
}
}
```
## Background Jobs
This analysis runs as a background job. See [Clip Worker](../workers/clip.md) for details.
## Use Cases
- Study area extraction
- Boundary-based filtering
- Area of interest analysis
- Data subset creation
## Notes
- Only intersecting features included
- Geometry clipped to boundary
- Attributes preserved
- Processing time depends on dataset size
