Points to Polygon
Creates closed polygon geometries by connecting individual points in sequence. This tool is particularly useful when reconstructing area features from boundary points, such as land plots or enclosures. Points can be grouped by a specified data field, enabling the generation of multiple polygons based on categorized point sets..
