| One line description: Creates tables with centroids dispersed in various positions along a circle around the original centroids |
| Expanded description: These tables can then be used for multiple point thematic analysis. A 'dispersion' is defined by the number of points (positions, 2 to 6), the angle from the North (towards the East) of the first position (0 to 90) and the radius of the circle (expressed in the map units) along which the centroids are dispersed. A 'dispersed' map contains all the centroids for a given position. The name of a map is the name of the original with the addition of _2 ... _6 (warning: newly created maps can be overwritten by another run using the same base map). A 'dispersed map' holds only one column chosen by the user to act as the 'commom column' in the joints required to carry out thematic analysis. The user must experiment with the length of the radius to get the best results for some specific combination of printing or display scale and symbol size, i.e. no overlap of the symbols and compactness around original positions. One can also envisage concentric circles with different radiuses and offset first positions. |
