Analysis Tools

Aurora GIS provides a comprehensive suite of spatial analysis tools for vector and raster data.

Overview

Analysis tools are organized into categories:

  • Proximity Analysis: Buffer, nearest neighbor, distance calculations
  • Overlay Operations: Intersect, union, erase, join operations
  • Spatial Analysis: Hot spots, outliers, KDE, clustering
  • Raster Analysis: Zonal statistics, raster operations
  • Feature Analysis: Summarization and aggregation

Running Analysis

Analysis tools can be run via:

  1. Web Interface: Use the analysis panels in the map viewer
  2. API: Make POST requests to analysis endpoints
  3. Batch Tools: Use the batch analysis interface

Background Processing

Most analysis operations run as background jobs:

  1. Analysis request creates a job in the queue
  2. Worker processes the job asynchronously
  3. Results are stored in a new dataset
  4. User is notified when complete

Output Formats

Analysis results can be stored as:

  • Static Table: Permanent table with results
  • View: Database view that updates with source data
  • Materialized View: Materialized view requiring refresh
