I have a road network (lines) that i need to convert into points for labeling reasons.

I have managed to do this using DistanceMarker but I want to be able to save the orientation angle of the line as an attribute in each point. So that when i use the points for labels, I can tilt them correspondingly. Since the lines are rarely straight, I want the orientation in the specific point.

Any advice for how to apporach this?

Take a look at the PolylineAnalyzer from FME Hub.
