Hi guys I recently upgraded qGIS to version 1.8 in order to run the points in polygon analysis (see e.g. http://qgis.spatialthoughts.com/2012/02/tutorial-spatial-analysis-points-in.html ). I used to have qGIS 1.7.0 installed which did not have this function in my installation (on Mepis 11 : Debian squeeze based). But I cannot find it in the new version of qGIS either? What do I need to do for this kind of analysis? (I want to use a text value of the polygon to update a text column in all the points within that polygon). Or should I just use GRASS for this kind of analysis? (Both are points and polygon are .shp files). (On this I have another question... but that is a separate issue). Thanks Chavoux
Make sure you have the ftools plugin installed and activated. I thought it would be on by default?
What you want to do is done with the "Join attribute by location" in "Vector->Data Management"
