Hi Geonet,

This is regarding a dissertation project on waterborne disease in Kenya.

I have two shapefiles, one shows 'location' level data for poverty, housing etc. the second shapefile just shows the border of 'districts'.

How can I show the location level data at district level?

Thank you in advance!

Patrick.

Hello,

You can set the spatial extents to show only the location level or district level or both.

Thanks,

James

Not sure I understand your question correctly. You don't have location type data at the district level, so you can't show it like that. You could perform a statistical analysis - average, sum, count, etc. - of your local data aggregated at the district level, which I'd put in a third shapefile or feature class, but you can't do it directly. You may also have to do some apportioning if local areas can be in more than one district. Or am I misunderstanding your question?
