Hi Trent,

 

 

The RasterCellCoercer can be used to transform every cell into point than has the band value as an attribute. You can then find the closest point from the line with the NeighborFinder.

Hi Takashi,

 

 

thank you for that bit of info, it worked to a point. I can get all the relevant info  to come through from the neighborfinder eg distance, closest x & y etc but for some reason the raster attributes don't want to flow through is there any reason for this.

 

I have included a link through to the sample fmw file and sample data if that helps?

Any help as always much appreciated.

 

 

Cheers

The "_band{}.value" is a list attribute that contains band values as its elements. You will have to get your required element value when writing it into a destination file. The raster read from an ascii grid file has just one band, so the required value will be stored in the first element of the list. i.e. "_band{0}.value".

 

 

Right-click on the list name and expose the element. Then, you can map the exposed element "_band{0}.value" to an attribute of the writer feature type.

 

 

 

Alternatively you can change a list element to non-list attribute by a transformer such as ListIndexer, AttributeRenamer etc.
