23.1.17.1. Extract by attribute ¶

Creates two vector layers from an input layer: one will contain only matching features while the second will contain all the non-matching features.

The criteria for adding features to the resulting layer is based on the values of an attribute from the input layer.

23.1.17.3. Extract by location ¶

The criteria for adding features to the resulting layer is based on the spatial relationship between each feature and the features in an additional layer.

../../../../_images/selectbylocation.png

Рис. 23.86 In this example, the dataset from which we want to select (the source vector layer) consists of the green circles, the orange rectangle is the dataset that it is being compared to (the intersection vector layer).¶

Available geometric predicates are:

Intersect: Tests whether a geometry intersects another. Returns 1 (true) if the geometries spatially intersect (share any portion of space - overlap or touch) and 0 if they don’t. In the picture above, this will select circles 1, 2 and 3.
Contain: Returns 1 (true) if and only if no points of b lie in the exterior of a, and at least one point of the interior of b lies in the interior of a. In the picture, no circle is selected, but the rectangle would be if you would select it the other way around, as it contains a circle completely. This is the opposite of are within.
Disjoint: Returns 1 (true) if the geometries do not share any portion of space (no overlap, not touching). Only circle 4 is selected.
Equal: Returns 1 (true) if and only if geometries are exactly the same. No circles will be selected.
Touch: Tests whether a geometry touches another. Returns 1 (true) if the geometries have at least one point in common, but their interiors do not intersect. Only circle 3 is selected.
Overlap: Tests whether a geometry overlaps another. Returns 1 (true) if the geometries share space, are of the same dimension, but are not completely contained by each other. Only circle 2 is selected.
Are within: Tests whether a geometry is within another. Returns 1 (true) if geometry a is completely inside geometry b. Only circle 1 is selected.
Cross: Returns 1 (true) if the supplied geometries have some, but not all, interior points in common and the actual crossing is of a lower dimension than the highest supplied geometry. For example, a line crossing a polygon will cross as a line (selected). Two lines crossing will cross as a point (selected). Two polygons cross as a polygon (not selected).

23.1.17.10. Select by location ¶

Creates a selection in a vector layer.

The criteria for selecting features is based on the spatial relationship between each feature and the features in an additional layer.

Рис. 23.87 In this example, the dataset from which we want to select (the source vector layer) consists of the green circles, the orange rectangle is the dataset that it is being compared to (the intersection vector layer).¶

Available geometric predicates are:

Intersect: Tests whether a geometry intersects another. Returns 1 (true) if the geometries spatially intersect (share any portion of space - overlap or touch) and 0 if they don’t. In the picture above, this will select circles 1, 2 and 3.
Contain: Returns 1 (true) if and only if no points of b lie in the exterior of a, and at least one point of the interior of b lies in the interior of a. In the picture, no circle is selected, but the rectangle would be if you would select it the other way around, as it contains a circle completely. This is the opposite of are within.
Disjoint: Returns 1 (true) if the geometries do not share any portion of space (no overlap, not touching). Only circle 4 is selected.
Equal: Returns 1 (true) if and only if geometries are exactly the same. No circles will be selected.
Touch: Tests whether a geometry touches another. Returns 1 (true) if the geometries have at least one point in common, but their interiors do not intersect. Only circle 3 is selected.
Overlap: Tests whether a geometry overlaps another. Returns 1 (true) if the geometries share space, are of the same dimension, but are not completely contained by each other. Only circle 2 is selected.
Are within: Tests whether a geometry is within another. Returns 1 (true) if geometry a is completely inside geometry b. Only circle 1 is selected.
Cross: Returns 1 (true) if the supplied geometries have some, but not all, interior points in common and the actual crossing is of a lower dimension than the highest supplied geometry. For example, a line crossing a polygon will cross as a line (selected). Two lines crossing will cross as a point (selected). Two polygons cross as a polygon (not selected).
