I believe I need to 'join' or 'relate' with my lsoa shapefile (which is what I've done with the other variables); I've tried all sorts of things such as kriging and extracting to vector, 'relates', 'joins', adding new fields, calculating new fields, but to no avail. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I'm sure there is someone out there who has done this before - I'd really appreciate your advice.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>thanks</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Jane</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 12 Jun 2012 14:14:36 GMT JaneCloke 2012-06-12T14:14:36Z xy data and shapefiles https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-statistics-questions/xy-data-and-shapefiles/m-p/256015#M834 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hi all</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I'm pretty new to GIS, so apologies if my problem is rather simplistic</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I'm planning to do regression analysis (GWR) on several datasets, where all but one is based on census areas (UK OS lower level super output areas, lsoa) for which I have a shape file that describes the polygons.

Could you please elaborate on the schemas (fields) of the table and the shapefile?</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 14 Jun 2012 22:03:21 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/spatial-statistics-questions/xy-data-and-shapefiles/m-p/256016#M835 NobbirAhmed 2012-06-14T22:03:21Z
