I am trying to find a way to find the percentage overlap between a vector polygon map and GPS points.

The purpose of this is to understand area usage of the animal as well as resource selection.

The points are gathered over 2 weeks and the GPS sends a signal every 2minutes when active.

My vector file is an area map that shows different area types that are of interest to my assignment. What I want is to have a table showing percentage of area used highest to lowest based on point location, together with my map.

  1. Intersect points with polygon layer to transfer area type to each point
  2. Statistics by category with Field with categories area type and timestamp. Now you have a table like (my area type is "kategori_2"): enter image description here
  3. Statistics by category again on your stat table with Field with categories area type
  4. Field Calculate a percentage column: enter image description here
