Create a point on the line according to the distance from the beginning of the path.

I have the geometry of the route. And a list of stops on it. The length of the path to each of the stops is known.

How do I create a point with this data?

In total my task is to apply Z to my 2D route. I have Z for each stop and a route-based distance. As I can understand TopologyBuilder can accumulate that in one 3D route, but do not know how to create that points or how to get XY for them.

Thanks for any hint!

I would use the Snipper transformer to create a line segment with the specified length from the beginning of the line.

The CoordinateExtractor (index -1) will get you the X and Y coordinates of the required point.
