Hello,
I am trying to make a semi-automatic pipeline for data generalization to be used on tactile maps. I have a point layer representing natural resources.
I want to make points from within the same group (resource type) being close to each other (within specified threshold - say 50 km), aggregated into a single point representation. The final location could be a centroid of the polygon created around the set of points (clusters).
I know the Aggregate Points tool but it ignores the symbol categories and requires me to do the further processing of setting centroids and so on.
Is there any other way to group these symbols? Most of the original point symbols do not overlap but on tactile maps large distances between signs have to be maintained.
In the image there is more or less the generalization result i want to achieve. Thanks in advance!
Kuba
EDIT: Oh, and I am aware of the Disperse Markers tool but as far as I know it doesn't have an option to reduce the number of resulting points...?
