Does anyone know how I can find lines that form a circular loop with the same endpoints. I can find lines with the same endpoints by calculating the distance between the endpoints, but I am interested in determining if it forms a loop. I would like to process these in a different way. Thanks you for any ideas.

There is a loopFilter custom transformer that does this.

Or you can use a Tester transformer to test if the coordinates of the start point are the same as the coordinates of the end point:

Hi @linasvebeliunas, the ClosedCurveFilter transformer might help you.

Why not inspect features with Visual/Data Preview and Feature/Record Information before writing them into a destination dataset?
