Ok, so I aggregated my point dataset (flight numbers) from over a million to just 26 multi point features.
I am now confused.
My end goal is to have a data set that lists each county name with the various flight numbers contained in that county.
I imagine this is going to be some sort of spatialfilter -- or point on area overlayer-- i just cant seem to get the parameters correct.
any thoughts?
Are you actually interested in keeping the point geometry in any way, or is it sufficient to have the unique flight numbers for each county on the county geometry?
If the latter then a SpatialRelator (Counties as Requestor) followed by a ListHistogrammer (on _relationships{}.flightnumber will give you a list of all the flight numbers that fall inside the county (and how many times for each flight number).
What I want to know is all the different flight numbers that fall within each county.If I aggreage based on flight number and county name I only get the unique combinations.
If you do a PointOnAreaOverlayer of the points with the counties you can get the county name (assuming you have that in an attribute) as an attribute of the points, then aggregate them on flight number and county name, that way you'll get an aggregate for all unique combinations of those two attributes and if you accumulate hulls they'll be smaller areas.
