Question

Filter line segments

I have a GML filet hat I want to clip or tile into 25k m squares.

 

 

Is it possible to somehow filter out the parallel lines sectioning this map to be used with the clipper? The features in the GML- file are currently polygons. The lines don’t have any attributes. Sectioning the map using the tiler transformer cuts the existing lines at an angle. Alternatively, is it possible to angle the tiler transformer?

you could extract the angles of the objects and compare them.

 

Of course if other then the grid boundaries have same angles, it would spoil it somewhat.

 

You have no distinguising attribute at all on those objects?

Thank you Gio. I have not found a way to filter them out.

 

The easiest solution may be to load the map as a shapefile in arcmap and create overlying lines manually that I can use for clipping.
