Question

Shapefile polyline, create a polygon like a road.

Hi,

As the title suggests, are there any recommendations on transformers to convert a line into a polygon or methods.

Thanks.

Hi,

If the lines represent center of road-like shapes, you can create long-narrow polygons using the Bufferer.

Hi,

if you use the Bufferer, you can also consider using the Dissolver with a Group By on the road ID after the Bufferer.

This will build one polygon per road ID, rather than one polygon per road segment.

You can also use the Group By on the Bufferer for a somewhat similar result, depending on your needs.
