Performing Analytics in Simple GIS Client
Welcome to the Simple GIS Tutorials page. Simple GIS contains many powerful analytic tools to leverage against your data. This page contains tutorials demonstrating generating heatmaps, buffering, calculated fields, elevation profiles, and proximity analysis.
Generating Heat Maps in Simple GIS
Description
- This tutorial covers the basics of generating Heat Maps within Simple GIS. Users can generate heat maps using either a kernel density algorithm or interpolative inverse distance weighting algorithm.
View a descriptive tutorial here or the video tutorial to the left.
Generating Buffers in Simple GIS CLient
Description
This video GIS tutorial will demonstrate creating buffers in a Simple GIS Client project to perform sophisticated spatial analysis. It will also cover creating drive time/distance rings.
Creating Calculated Fields in Simple GIS Client
Description
- This video GIS tutorial will demonstrate creating calculated fields in a feature layer's attribute table using the Calculated Field Expression builder.
Topics Covered
- Creating Drive Time Rings with Census Data
- Adding a calculated field to normalize field values
- Using the Data Explorer to visualize results
Viewing Elevation Profiles in Simple GIS Client
Description
- This video GIS tutorial will demonstrate viewing elevation profiles from raster digital elevation models in Tiff or DEM format. This video also demonstrates importing tracks and waypoints from a GPX file and viewing the elevation profile of this data.
