I have two shapefiles – the wards of a country (larger) and the land cover polygons (smaller) of the same country. At the moment the two layers are overlaid together, on the same projections, but not joined. I want to be able to join these layers so that: A. The polygons are all clipped to the ward they sit within. B. If a polygon sits between two wards, the polygon will be divided along the line and created into two polygons. C. When I open the attribute table, it says all the polygons names with a field saying which ward they sit within. I know how to do this by taking each ward, clipping etc etc. However, I would have to do this process 500 times. I’m wondering is there a tool I don’t know about or a model someone has developed or something to make this process a lot faster? Thanks!
