The scenario is as follows: We have linear features representing routes, and a table where each row contains route id attribute, as well as start and end measures of each event. We want to use the start and end measurements to locate segments of along the routes. How do I do this?

  1. Use a FeatureMerger to merge the routes to the table: Table as requestor, Routes as supplier. Join on the route ID field (if applicable), Set Feature Merge Type to Geometry. This merges the measures with the route geometry, and the routes are duplicated for each row of measures, which facilitate the next step.
  2. Use a Snipper to snip the route (Merged port) by the start and end measure attribute. Since routes are duplicated in the step above, each duplication will be snipped into a segment corresponding to one of the rows in the table.
