spa-l2-lagos-hotspot-overlaps
Map (reference ← swipe → agent)
0:00
Hot-spot map for the Lagos housing brief. `lagos_landuse` carries land-use polygons with a population density attribute; `lagos_hex_grid` is a hex grid. I need the top 10 % of hex cells ranked by area-weighted mean population density across overlapping land-use polygons. Tiny polygons under 100 m² are noise and should be excluded.
I need two output files that share exactly the same set of `hex_id` values, one row per cell. `hotspots.geoparquet` is a GeoParquet (Polygon or MultiPolygon geometry) in Nigeria's national grid with columns `hex_id`, `rank`, `area_weighted_density`, and `geometry`. `hotspot_ranking.parquet` is a plain Parquet with no geometry, carrying `hex_id`, `rank`, `area_weighted_density`, `n_overlap_polygons` (integer), and `n_slivers_filtered` (integer). In both files `rank` must be a unique integer starting at 1 where ascending rank corresponds to descending `area_weighted_density`.
