Areas of Interest
R2026bAn 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 the
geopolyshape or
mappolyshape function to define an AOI from
vertices. Use geocoding functions to get a point 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) |
union | Union of shapes in geographic or planar coordinates (Since R2025a) |
| Polygon in geographic coordinates |
| Polygon in planar coordinates |
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)
