    Data ManagementadvancedDifficulty: advanced300 XP~45 min5 checks

    You hand in a GeoJSON result.

    Datasets

    • Urban areas · Polygon · 2,143 features · EPSG:4326
    • Populated places · Point · 1,251 features · EPSG:4326

    What you’ll do

    • Measure footprint area in an equal-area projection and apply a size floor
    • Test each footprint for containment of any point from a second layer
    • Return the uncovered footprints with the area that says how much they matter
