Spatial Joins in QGIS

Spatial joins in QGIS is one of the main aspects of this tutorial and is a fundamental part of the merging of datasets by the spatial relationship they possess. Spatial joins are introduced next, in order to explain how users have the ability to use content of the attribute data from one layer to another by means of their spatial relationship. Here are the details of steps you will go through to perform spatial join in QGIS: Setting up layers, Join Parameters, and View Results on Map.

This is an excellent opportunity to walk you through such scenarios as when you merge population characteristics with geography or combine the survey findings with the attached geography attributes. At the end of this tutorial you will have mastered on how to do spatial join with effectiveness thus increasing your knowledge of spatial data and it’s application. I have tried to demonstrate from the scratch how to do spatial joins even for QGIS learners who are new in using the application.
