Greetings

Have a raster and vector layer. I would like to use a raster file to select areas within the vector layer that insect with the raster. 

Regards

Since you would like to use your raster layer as the clip/intersect feature, you may want to try converting it to vector using the "raster to polygon" tool (Conversion) and then running your vector geoprocessing.

Hi Chris,

My raster file is very big. After converting it contains something around 3009284 records in shapefile.

Is there any other workaround for this?

My Best
