Hello,

I have 20 shapefiles with no unique attributes in them.This all shapefiles are Line features. I want to generate the output with ovelapping part with exact overlap, and lines which are not overlapping but are parallel to each other at 3 meters distance.

for example see below image output seen and generated in ArcGIS for 2 shapefiles.

Need to generate same result for 20 shapefile in FME. Need help or solution for this problem.

For the exact match you should be able to use the LineOnLineOverlayer, for parallel lines you could take a look at the FuzzyParallelLineFinder (Custom Transformer). Also the image didn't get uploaded with your post.

Yeah, I think your best approach would be with a combination of the LineOnLineOverlyer and the FuzzyParallelLineFinder. It's a tricky problem for sure. Cleaning geometries like this is hard.
