As its name suggests, the polygon-on-point overlay14 operation is the opposite of
the point-in-polygon operation. In this case, the polygon layer is the input, while
the point layer is the overlay. The polygon features that overlay these points are
selected and subsequently preserved in the output layer. For example, given a point
dataset containing the locales of some type of crime and a polygon dataset
representing city blocks, a polygon-on-point overlay operation would allow police
to select the city blocks in which crimes have been known to occur and hence
determine those locations where an increased police presence may be warranted.
