I have got an inital line featureclass from which I make a new one with splitted the lines, based on a measure table (MeasureGenerator, FeatureMerger, Snipper). I want to make a fme tool that can update this featureclass based on an updated measure table.  I want to conditional handle the attribute values of all changes in the new feature class. 

Measure:

0-2000;2000-4000;4000-8000 (measure in meters)

Becomes Measure:

0-1000;1000-2000;2000-2500;2500-5000;5000-8000

Makes combined:

0-1000;1000-2000;2000-2500;2500-4000;4000-5000; 5000-8000

In the record of 0-1000 should be the attributes (Start, End, etc) of ‘Measure’ and ‘Becomes Measure’ so I can check from which former feature the new feature will get the attributes. This will be based on the largest overlap in length. I have tried this with the LinOnLineOverlayer. Here the line output does not give the answer and the point output gives all the answers except for when the endpoint is the same (0-2000 and 1000-2000).

How should I do this? Am I using the right transformers in the wrong way?

 

Regards

Hi ​@eisozanstra Can you attach a screenshot of what you’d like to do with measures on the lines? Thanks
