Hi, 

I am writing to request advice on creating accurate heat maps and hot spot 
maps. 


I am mapping 5 heritage sites where 100s, and in a few cases 1000s, of points 
representing various attributes have been recorded using a differential GPS.  I 
want to show the density of these attributes and then demonstrate a threshold 
(no. of attributes) in hot spots in each heritage site.  


I have no problems creating heat and hot spot maps following the QGIS 
instruction manual and Ujaval Gandhi’s tutorials, but I am uncertain about how 
to use the advanced raster heatmap plugin settings to set the x and y cell 
size, kernel shape etc.  I seem to get different results every time I create a 
map.  So, is it ok to leave the advanced settings off? and just choose the 
radius? Depending on attribute, I set the radius to 10m, 5m and 1m.


This is for my PhD, so I need the mapping and hot spot math to be accurate 
rather than representative.


Any advice on this will be much appreciated,


Julia
