Queries
Clauses
The following groups of clauses exist:
Specific polygons
Clause | As a polygon | As an item |
---|---|---|
AREA | The requested data must intersect with this area. | It must be data of this area specifically. |
NEIGHBORHOOD | The requested data must intersect with this neighborhood. | It must be data of this neighborhood specifically. |
ZONE | The requested data must intersect with this zone. | It must be data of this zone specifically. |
TERRAIN | The requested data must intersect with this terrain type. | It must be data of this type of terrain. There are no specific "instances" of terrain. |
Unspecific polygons
Clause | As a polygon | As an item |
---|---|---|
AREA_WITH_ATTRIBUTE | The requested data must intersect with at least one area with this attribute. | N/A |
NEIGHBORHOOD_WITH_ATTRIBUTE | The requested data must intersect with at least one neighborhood with this attribute. | N/A |
ZONE_WITH_ATTRIBUTE | The requested data must intersect with at least one zone with this attribute. | N/A |
TERRAIN_WITH_ATTRIBUTE | The requested data must intersect with terrain with this attribute. | N/A |
Grids
Clause | As a polygon | As an item |
---|---|---|
MAXGRIDVALUE | It must have at least this value on a grid overlay. | N/A |
MINGRIDVALUE | It must have at most this value on a grid overlay. | N/A |
GRID | It must fall within this grid. | It must be data of this grid overlay specifically. |
GRIDTYPE | It must fall within this type of grid. (If multiple grids of the same type exist this behavior is uncertain.) | It must be data of this type of grid, not a specific "instance" of this grid. |
Note that each grid automatically covers the entire map, unless a minimum gridvalue or maximum gridvalue is defined. For queries such as GRIDAVG, this can be acceptable. However, for example, a query of SELECT_LANDSIZE_WHERE_GRID_IS_2 is functionally the same as SELECT_LANDSIZE.
