[Qgis-user] Calculate intersecting area of two layers in a virtual field. Context of @geometry in overlay_intersects()

[Abi Mansley]

Hello List, Hello Bruno and Klaus -

(Long time lurker, first time poster)

Easy way to get the area of intersecting polygons is to do the "union" from the vector drop down menu.
Make sure there is something in the attribute table that helps you know which layer is which.
Then you get a layer which includes a) the polygons in both, b) the polygons in one but not the other and c) the polygons in the other but not in the first!
Then just run stats to get the area you need.
