This is doable.

  • PointCloudStatisticsCalculator to get z.min.
  • PointCloudFilter to filter points where z = z.min.
  • PointCloudCoercer to convert pointcloud to point.
  • CoordinateExtractor to extract base coordinates.
  • Bufferer to buffer point to area.
  • Clipper to clip pointcloud and merge base coordinates. This also prevents processing all points in pointcloud.
  • PointCloudCoercer to convert pointcloud to points.
  • CoordinateExtractor to extract candidate coordinates.
  • ExpressionEvaluator to calculate _distance_x based on _x_base and _x_candidate.
  • StatisticsCalculator to find _x_distance.min.
  • Tester to select points where _x_distance = _x_distance.min.
