I have turned my roadnetwork in a LRS (linear referenced road network) with measures. Now I have a table with roadaccidents without coordinates, but with the measures corresponding to the LRS (e.g. km 12.90). Is it possible to locate these locations on the map, using the LRS, and thus find the coordinates? The best solution I've found so far is to extract the nearest measure values, but these dont get close enough.

You can use the snipper to create a point at your measure value, once you have the point you can extract the coordinates. The main issue with this approach however is you need a copy of the line for each measure you want to identify
