Hi, A long time ago we had a team splitting permanent field polygons into smaller polygons presenting annual crops inside the fields. We had to fill in some attributes for each crop polygon from application papers and also some data based on our own satellite image interpretation. In that kind of work it was important to make the annual crop polygons ready at once while operator had the application form available and therefore instant noding was needed.
The software we used was very clever for that certain purpose. It was possible to define some line layers like a road layer so that new features automatically made nodes to field boundaries (base parcels, probably called ilots in France). Some other layers like power line layer or underground pipework layer were not noded with fields. It looks like OJ does not have a tool for finding intersecting features from the same layer. All the spatial operations are needing a source layer and a mask layer. I wonder if it could be possible to make some temporary logical layer from the selected features to be used as a mask layer? -Jukka Rahkonen- Michaël Michaud wrote: > Hi Jukka, all, > > Interesting idea.
