Jesse, not seeing any answers come through, I=B4ll throw out a $245 solutio= n.
Buy a copy of Manifold V 8. Create a map, import =
all the.shp files. (If there=B4s really a lot of =
files, you may want a 64 byte CPU, and the 64 =
byte Manifold edition for - as I recollect - $50 additional.)
File import can be scripted or done directly =
through the GUI. The attributes will be imported =
into separate DB fields for each layer =
corresponding to a .shp drawing. The Touch =
function can be used through a scripted function =
either to search for overlaps or select =
overlapping objects based upon a series of =
designated points or areas: or with the Spatial =
Overlay in the GUI you can sequentially go =
through your areas of interest (AOIs) and select =
all touching layers. In either case the =
particular DB fields that interest you can be =
configured to create standard statistical COUNT, =
MEDIAN, MEAN etc analysis of the spatially =
determined overlaps in a new drawing.
If you want to push it a bit further that =
statistical analysis can then be copy / pasted =
into EXCEL for the crunching the number of =
touching areas as a percentage of the whole.
Works for fish catches over time. The graphic =
Touch analysis can exported to the Web inputting =
additional layers as they come in: or with a bit =
more serious programming allowing Web users to =
input their own points (or areas) of interest.
Cheers,
Pat
