26. Example The following describes how the program creates a view using Inverse Distance 1 2 The program breaks the fields into grids based on the grid size that was entered To figure the value of the grid the program draws a circle that has a radius of the size that is entered The program takes the values of the X points defined as the of neighbors to use that are nearest to the center of the circle The program figures the value for the grid by weighting the points based on their distance from the circle so that the point that is closest to the center of the circle is weighted more heavily than the point that is further away The program takes the value that it computes references the legend and determines the color Averaging polygons The software enables you to average all points that fall in a polygon from a different layer which can help when comparing yields versus soil types You must have a layer with polygons over the same area as your points layer For example a soil type map for a field that your yield map is in L 2 3 Show the points layer to average and then select the attribute under Views to analyze Click Add View and then select Area in New View Click Browse and then find the area layer to use for the analysis FARM WORKS MAPPING SOFTWARE USER GUIDE 232 4 Mapping Software 4 Doone of the following Output C Grid C Contour f Area Area Options Layer Variety Map Gri
