Filters

Build interactive query expressions for spatial and attribute-based filtering.

Filters are conditions added to your data layers to only show a subset of features in the map, in the Table View or as the input for Transform.

Adding filters to a layer

Filters work on all data types, including text, numbers, booleans and dates. Filters can be added to a layer in two ways:

• Directly from the Table View by clicking on a column, then on Add filter...

• In the Filter tab of the style editor, by clicking on the Add filter button.

Creating new filtered layers

It can be useful to create new derived layers that contain just the filtered data from the original. This can be achieved by clicking on the # features text in pink, then selecting the Update in new layer option from the dropdown menu.

Filters & Transformations

Transformations from the Spatial Analysis toolkit can use filtered layers as input, which is very convenient for quick data wrangling & exploration.
