Weighted values of the field in QGIS

In QGIS in the Attribute Table, there is a field with values.



For this field, I need to calculate the sum of all its values and divide by the number of values that are not equal to NULL.



Afterwards, I need to create a new field, where each value of the original field will be divided into the previously calculated (the sum of all its values and divided by the number of values).



Is it possible to do this with the function editor in the Field Calculator (as this action will be repeated more than once)?

  • it would be highly appreciated if you can provide us with a sample of your data and your desired output, alternatively you may describe it. For instance, my values are integers or real, and my output should look like something.

First of all, you need to create one additional field in the Attribute Table:





  • "Output", where the calculated new values will be stored (probably a real data type).


Then you need to proceed in Expression dialogue using the following formula



CASE
WHEN "YOUR_FIELD" <> 'NULL' THEN "YOUR_FIELD" / (sum("YOUR_FIELD") / count("YOUR_FIELD"))
ELSE NULL
END




A short example. I do have a field with values, that vary between 3 and 300, and also include 'NULL' values. See the Attribute Table below.



Attribute_Table



In my case, the sum of all values is 544. The number of values that are not equal to 'NULL' is 7.



Then I proceed with a formula in the Expression dialogue with activated Editing mode.



CASE
WHEN "Value" <> 'NULL' THEN "Value" / (sum("Value") / count("Value"))
ELSE NULL
END


Expression_Dialogue



Afterwards, I achieved corresponding new values.

  • Many thanks for the answer, but my action is repeated very often and therefore I needed to create a function in the function editor. in Expression dialogue I also introduced the formula "Value" / ( sum( "Value" ) / (count( CASE WHEN "Value" >= 1 THEN +1 END)))
