I have a 3D point dataset (no point cloud) and a 2D line dataset. The lines only consist of a start node and an end node. The point dataset is identical with the start and end nodes. My goal is now to transfer the height information from the 3D point dataset to the 2D nodes of the lines in order to obtain a 3D polyline. Is there a way to do this in FME?

add 3D Point information to a 2D Line?

The easiest way is to probably use a SurfaceDraper. The points should go into the Points/Lines input and the Lines should go into the DrapeFeatures.
There are a number of ways to do this in FME if that doesn't give you the results you want then we can give you more ideas

Thank you very much for the support. It worked wonderfully with the SurfaceDrapper. I was a little surprised, as the name suggests something else to me.
I would still be interested in the other possibilities.
