Hello there

we are doing some photo shooting for each road segment and we want to know if each segment have been covered by the photo shooting

Attached you can find the road shapefile and shooting position of the camera

as an approach, we have created a buffer of the road and use the clipper to clip all point within the road then build a line and compare the length of this line and road segments, but we face many issues due to the buffer overlapping and point duplication on those buffer, I mean taken twice

 

if you have any other approach will be appreciated

thanks

Hi @boubcher​ 

 

Thanks your sample data. I opened the two files and inspected into FME Data Inspector.

 

As according your description, you created a buffer in the Road.shp and checked the points inside this buffer created.

 

Is the next step is create a line connecting the points?

 

 

Thanks in Advance,

Danilo
