Create aggregation grid

This tool creates a grid of squares over the input study area with a user-defined size and coverage.

Shapefile

Upload a zip file of the desired extent of the aggregation grid. This zip file should include several files associated with one shapefile, as seen below for the file Country.shp.

Width of each cell in aggregation grid (km)

Specify the size of the desired grid squares in kilometres.

Grid coverage

Specify the extent of the output grid.

• Rectangular, covering full extent of boundary feature class: The output grid will be rectangular in shape and cover the full height and width of the shapefile above.
• Grid covers area bounded by boundary feature class only: The output grid will follow the boundary of the shapefile.
