Re: [udig-users] buffering with uDig

I think this is mostly a JTS question. With JTS you can create a geometry which is derived by buffering the feature's Geometry. Then you can use that to do a query using that feature. An Intersects query is probably what you need.

Dear all,
is it possible to use buffering in uDig to select features in a certain area?

I have a shapefile that contains the districts of an european island. I'm interested in all areas that are at least 10km away from coastline. To do this:
1) create on large feature based on all other
2) buffering 10km from the edge of this feature (not buffering along the area of this feature: this would cover everything) 3) having the initial set of all features I must remove those of (2) and then just the inner ones (at least 10km away from coastline)

How can I do this?

Thank you,
Jürgen
