Hi guys,

 

I have created all the vertices (point features with z information) on my line feature. Now i would like to create 3D polyline feture from existing line.

1. I would like to maintain line feature and its attributes - so an option of creating line from points is not an option.

2. Is there any option to define each vertice on my line feature a z information from existing points?

Thanks in advance again.

 

Bye, Miha

Hi @miharobar, hopefully the SurfaceDraper could be a quick solution.

Send the 3D points to the Points/Lines port, send the 2D lines to the DrapedFeatures port, set 0 to the Surface Tolerance parameter in the transformer. If every vertex of the 2D lines matched a 3D point, your desired 3D lines would be output from the DrapedFeatures port.

Hi takashi,

 

Thanks again for quick solution. It worked for me perfectly, due i have ordered vertex points in 3d before. Much easier solution as suggested ones in ArcMap or QGIS.
