Dartmouth Atlas HSAs: fix invalid geometries #19

Closed mtango99 closed 3 years ago

mtango99 commented 3 years ago

There are some invalid geometries in my layer-- did this happen to anyone else? I am trying to clip the HSAs to VT. If I change settings to ignore invalid geometries, it runs but doesn't include the invalid geometries in the output, leaving a few holes. Any way to fix invalid geometries?

You may leave the geometries unchanged and go for a select by location approach instead. It'll look fine in the final web map.

I got a "no spatial index exists for input layer" error when trying to run the select by location tool-- so I'm just gonna select by hand.

Error or warning? The warning is ok. It just means that it'll take a little bit longer.
