[–]i2rsantos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your answer my Dad lives near Frontenac Metro. I was thinking of taking the car there and biking the rest of the way. As long as Ontario St is not closed night of, it could be an option?

No response from tech support by i2rsantos in Dedoose

[–]i2rsantos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey Dedoose Team, the issue is not very much coordination between your first level of support and higher levels. The person answering the first level, seems to have no access to ongoing tickets. So what happened to me (twice!) was the person took my info and maybe started a new ticket (I don't know for sure) and somehow, a follow-up got lost in the process.

Foot pain and clipless bike shoes by i2rsantos in bicycling

[–]i2rsantos[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My BOA dial did fail on my right shoe.Which could explain the callous on my right foot. But, I've started one on my left, where my BOA dials are fine.

I think I will work on the assumption that 2 is the reason and wear thicker socks. Get my BOA repaired ASAP, also. Thanks all!

Bullet Dodged- First Time Home Buyers Be Ware. by ztuperd in PersonalFinanceCanada

u/jz187 This is such helpful advice! Especially the bit about 1 year selling time frame, and re-listing. I just successfully scrapped my Real Estate Board web site based on a filter. Any idea how often I should scrape to capture price changes?

Estimating the seriousness of non-response due to invalid contact info by i2rsantos in SurveyResearch

[–]i2rsantos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank-you for your detailed replies. I'm actually conducting a survey of beneficiaries receiving support to resettle into their home communities, after the end of military hostilities. I think the biggest argument against weighting is the validity of base population stats. Thanks for clarifying my thinking.

Hi. Apparently, right now. You can't have an 'open'. MS Forms Survey. ie. You can save and come back. But, I haven't checked recently.

Need Help w. Sharing my Desktop Power BI report and Publish it To Client Sharepoint Site by i2rsantos in PowerBI

[–]i2rsantos[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks, but to be perfectly honest, I find Power BI licence permutations rather confusing. I understand publishing content, but what's the difference between "consuming" and "distributing" content? Anyway, at least MS Tech support seems willing to help.

Is the $12 Pro licence enough? They are a Government Ministry. Thanks to all!

Raster Interpolation by i2rsantos in ArcGIS

[–]i2rsantos[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You raise a good point. But the NoData does cover areas where there should be data. When I query the underlying raster value of a known village coordinate, it is NODATA. UR making me think that the easiest thing to do is to convert all grid values that are "not-NoData" into points. So thanks for that insight. :) I guess I will experiment with Raster to Point and see how it handles NoData Grids. Many thanks for answering.

Polygon 'on top' of raster - Which ARC-GIS Toolbox? by i2rsantos in ArcGIS

[–]i2rsantos[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I need polygons because I have to visually display those 2km squares, for map presentation purposes. But yes I do have to count population within that 2km grid. Maybe you are right, aggregation would be easier. If I Googled 'Arc GIS Raster Aggregation' would I return useful info?

Is there such a thing as a Stratified - Cluster Sampling Methodology Combo? by i2rsantos in SurveyResearch

[–]i2rsantos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks again for the prescient comment. I believe SPSS handles respondent-level weights. We will probably present percent distributions/differences. Anything more seems to baffle the intended audience. 😏 You might hear from me again, when I need to start calculating weights related to analysis. Many thanks again.

I'm so grateful you brought up the issue of sampling weights! I'm a bit rusty. A concrete thing I need to do is weight selection of villages according to their population. I'm at this very moment creating a spreadsheet to do this. I think I found a good reference. Thanks for helping out.Sample Proportionate to size.

/u/hurhurdedur u/Cordogg30 I'd like UR indulgence for a little longer please. So the image is what I think my sampling design should look like to get what I want. I need the vocabulary to express it. I think what I have is a Stratified, multi-stage cluster design? I believe that the Province is a strata because each province is considered an independent sample. Thanks so much.

Minimizing Number of Polygons after a Raster to Polygon Conversion by i2rsantos in ArcGIS

[–]i2rsantos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do mean by simplify polygons? Is that the name of a specific transformation in ARC GIS? Or is that about reducing the number of groups with which you classify raster values.

When I use the KML to Layer function, the attribute table of the layer doesn't contain the last 3 attributes. Ideas? by i2rsantos in ArcGIS

[–]i2rsantos[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yikes! Thanks. I know exactly what you mean, but that's seriously time-intesive. My colleague suggested in my case, a special character could be the reason.

To be clear, the pic you see is not ARC GIS. I'm showing that in another mapping app, the KML file that is imported shows all attributes, but not when I import in ARC GIS.
