Purpose of the Attribute Overlay

A typical use-case of the Attribute Overlay is to visualize the attributes that are linked to certain Buildings or Areas with specific characteristics like type of building, year of construction or purpose of an area. The attributes can be used to make selections that you want to visualize. Because you can add your own Attributes in a GIS program, like QGis, it is possible to customize this Overlay with all kinds of selections.
