You can filter or select data by specifying a location in your model. For example, you can find all roads within 100 meters of a power line, or all buildings within a specific section of the drawing.
When you specify a location condition in an expression, you switch to your model and draw the location manually. For example, if you want to find all buildings within a circular area, you draw the circle on your model. As soon as your designation is complete, you return to the expression.
You cannot use location filters for tooltips or calculations.
