Point In Polygon analysis is great to finding out the occurrence or the frequency of occurrence that happens in a particular area. In our case, we're going to find out how much crime occurs in each neighborhood. So let's add the neighborhoods now, or the zoning. So if we go into our desktop, our Exercise Files where I extracted all my data, under 1_Vector_Analysis, you'll see Zoning. And I'm going to drag and drop the ZONING into a blank map. And I'm also going to go into the Crime folder and drag and drop the crime points. And yes, we're going to convert it from UTM Zone 10N. That's what the default is. Actually, we're going to change the map coordinate system. I like to use 3857 because then my maps are web-ready. And I tend to do that even though my analysis could be done in feed and all sorts of things. I like to bring everything together in a Pseudo- Mercator meters web and then it will re-project. So my crime is actually in lat/long. My zoning is in UTM Zone 10N, and they're all…
