Hi, I have two readers where one is a line object and the other is a point object. Sometimes, my point objects will lie on the line or it may be at the end of a line. In the case that it is on the line, I want to split the line and be able to produce two lines. Please advise. Thank you very much!

Hi @li_fme, thanks for your question!

 

 

The PointOnLineOverlayer might be your solution. It can check for points that are not directly on the line, so you may need to set a spatial tolerance to have it work for your specific situation (if you only want to use points that lie on the line.

Hope this helps!

Nathan

Thank you, @NathanAtSafe. That's very helpful and I am able to use that to get my chain split.
