I have two files illustrated wonderfully below: 1) Polyline (shown in red), 2) Polygon (shown in black).
The polyline file contains a numeric attribute (elevation in meters).
I would like to select all polylines that are contained within (and intersect) each polygon grid cell. I would then like to count the number of lines inside each cell, sum their elevations (from the attribute table) and report the average elevation of polylines in each cell. The lines can belong to more than one cell.
Aside from doing this manually using selections, which is not possible given the number of cells/lines, how can I accomplish this task?
In the end I would simply like a list of the average elevations for each grid cell - ideally this could all be done in the GIS, but exporting to a spreadsheet and performing the final calculations (average) is workable.
