This filter term filters for features based on their spatial data. The term uses a feature of type Region to define the spatial boundary and will return all features that are located within that spatial boundary.
This filter can search for features regardless of the spatial reference system. It will automatically transform the Region in order to get accurate results.
This filter will never include the region feature that is used to specify the region of interest.

Region |
Specifies the feature that defines the spatial boundary. This feature is never included in the Members of the view |
Spatial Operator |
Intersect: Two geometries are said to intersect if they share at least one point in common. That common point (or points) may lie either on the boundary or the interior of the geometries concerned. Within: Geometry A is said to be within geometry B if the interior of A is completely contained within B. Specifically, the two geometries must meet the following criteria: •The interiors of both geometries must intersect. •No point from geometry A may lie in the exterior of geometry B (although points from geometry A may lie in the boundary of B). Contains: Geometry A contains geometry B if the following criteria are met: •The interior of both geometries intersects. •None of the points of geometry B lies in the exterior of geometry A. |
Include features using projected coordinate systems |
If set the view filter will search for features using a geographic coordinate system. Default: true |
Include features using geographic coordinate systems |
If set the view filter will search for features using a geographic coordinate system. Default: false |
Include features using axis reference systems |
If set the view filter will search for features using a geographic coordinate system. Default: false |
