I'm not sure what you mean with spatial join, but if you mean overlay,

I agree with some of the other responses that challenge the way of
traditional thinking. Desktop GIS, Web and Databases are the tools
of today - it's interesting to watch the various ways they come
together (collide?) in projects. If you look to replace desktop
proprietary options, you

Hi,
this is the kind of question I face when in my lectures evangelising OS GIS.
ArcGIS has many tools, though some prefer to call it a deluge of tools, which
almost distance the user from understanding the concept of GIS.
