The Intersection operation computes the spatial intersection
between the objects of two layers. The objects of the input layer that have intersection
with the objects of the overlay layer will be cut and included in an output layer.
Go to Vector Processing
> Intersection... to obtain
the following interface:
The Intersection result can be stored in different TerraLib datasources. Check data
source
selector for more details on how to
select a data source. If the Input layer and the Overlay layer are in different SRSs (Spatial Reference System) the
geometries of the Overlay layer will be converted before executing the operation. If only one of them have an unknown SRS a message
will be issued, since no conversion will not be possible and the result might be incorrect. The option to use only selected objects from the Input and/or Overlay layers is under development.Interface usage
