How to use Density Map tool

In order to utilise the Density Map tool please follow the steps below.

1. Click the Density Map tool.
2. Create a new density layer or update one that already exists.
3. Select the layer that will be a base layer for the density map generator.
4. Set a radius of the influence zone for each record occurrence or allow Earthlight to estimate this based on the layer surface size.
5. 'Limit to selection' option allows you to use only selected records from the layer in creation process of density map.

• Set a cell size or change the size to Automatic for Earthlight to estimate its size.
• Once finished click Calculate to generate the Density Map raster layer.
  
  
  
• Enter a name for this new layer and click OK.
