Areas of Interest

Define and analyze data within areas of interest

An area of interest (AOI) is a type of region of interest (ROI) that defines a focus area for geospatial analysis and visualization. Use AOI functions to define quadrangular or circular AOIs. Use geocoding functions to get a point, line, or polygon shape from a geocoded placename.

Functions

`aoiquad`	Define quadrangular or rectangular area of interest (Since R2024b)
`aoicircle`	Define circular area of interest (Since R2024b)
`geocode`	Get shape object from geocoded placename (Since R2024b)
`placenames`	Installed list of placenames for `geocode` function (Since R2024b)

Topics

Define Areas of Interest
An area of interest defines a focus area for a geospatial visualization and analysis. Define an AOI for imported data, create an AOI from vertices, or get an AOI from a geocoded placename. (Since R2024b)
Clip Vector Data to Area of Interest
Clip point, line, and polygon shapes to an area of interest. (Since R2024b)
Crop Raster Data to Area of Interest
Crop raster data to the bounds of an area of interest. (Since R2024b)
Query Points in Area of Interest
Determine if point shapes are within an area of interest. (Since R2024b)
