FME Version: FME(R) 2018.1.0.0 (20180717 - Build 18520 - WIN32)
My workspace is built to identify points that are from a certain distance from a line featureclass. I use a neighbor finder to identify the points. While using the base and candidate features as points and lines respectively, I achieve what I want except for an error i.e. IFMELine was given an index beyond its current range. Despite this error, the translation runs successfully.
On trying to find similar issues, I found this post that said it could be because the point is past the line. https://community.safe.com/s/question/0D54Q000080hgTy/neighborfinder-try-to-get-elevation-but-get-this-error-ifmeline-was-given-an-index-beyond-its-current-range
One way I could circumvent this is to also convert the line to points using a chopper or so but it is not desirable for the the vertex could be farther away from the line itself.
Would anyone know what would be the best way to resolve this?
Is there a method to identify these problematic areas and maybe flag them before I can use the neighbor finder?
