- at least one processor;
at least one spatial layer dataset with spatial data comprising at least one spatial data attribute;
at least one non-spatial layer dataset with feature data comprising at least one non-spatial layer feature data attribute;
at least one configuration element executed by the at least one processor to;

Abstract
A system and method link one or more disparate datasets with one or more spatial layers to create linked datasets. One or more data attributes common to the dataset and the spatial layer are identified, and the linkage is defined between the dataset and the spatial layer. The spatial layer and the linked data set then may be queried using a single input query. Features from the spatial layer and features from the linked dataset that match the query are generated for display.
