I require a set of shape files to be processed in a database with spatial data processing capabilities in order to understand the relationships between each of the internal boundaries. Please see attached spec document for more details and an example. We will provide 3 .zip shape files but one of them is too large to upload on freelancer (221Mb).

Dear Sir/Madam, I am a GIS developer and analyst with prior experience working on tasks such as this, from a background in environmental science and ecology. My skillset is fairly broad and includes working with QGIS, GRASS etc; programming in Python and R; data management; spatial analysis; map design/cartography; web map development; and working with databases/SQL. I propose to use PostGIS for the task, importing the layers with ogr2ogr, then writing a spatial SQL query to calculate the borders, centroids, and distances, which I can write to csv files. The same result can be achieved without a db using R or Python, if preferred. Either way, in addition to the csv tables, I can provide the source code/query for reference. I will be looking forward to hearing back from you regarding this opportunity and discussing further. If you have any questions regarding my application, please do not hesitate to get in touch. Also, unrelated to this task, I too am from from Sheffield, although lived most of my life in Chesterfield, and now reside in Canada. Kind regards, Shaun

Hello! How are you? I can help you with with your project by programming functions in Python, Qgis and R. By using Qgis, I can use the right projections to work with the precise locations and to calculate the centroids of each polygon (WGS84 for lon-lat , the projection of Ireland for Easting and Northing values). Distances between centroids and from centroids to boundaries can be calculated in a precise way using R or Qgis. Then, I can develop a PyQgis script to calculate the second part. Here, I'll have to think step by step to write a script that allow us to obtain the second table. All the results can be saved on .csv. Are you thinking in another type of database? Which is your deadline? I've worked in a similar project before. I calculated the centroids of all the counties in the USA and their nearest distance to time zones. I'm available for any questions, Have a good day, Natalia

It would require generating multi-relationships based on spatial analysis (BOUNDARY_TOUCHES in Python). And once the work flow is smooth we can run over your systems too. Generating centroid; calculate distance between the centroids and deriving the farthest points among the adjacent polygons using proximity analysis. In some cases where the boundaries two layers are not in sync, we need generate the relationships based on either area or population density and removing the slivers, assigning the weightage. That gives fair idea in the cases where both the input layers are true to the actual ground. In case you feel so we can have a word too for further discussions on iirs(\’dot\’)deeps(‘\at\’)gmail. Infact I can help you in the analysis part too. Best Regards.

Hello I have studied your project and I believe I can do the computer work. I was wondering how should I calculate the distance to the centroid of each adjacent boundary? will you provide a formula? My bidding price is low because I need to gain credit. So I will do my best.
