Segments to points
Algorithm
The Segments to points operation simply copies either:
- all nodes of a segment map into a point map,
- finds coordinates along segments at a user-defined distance interval and writes these to a point map, or
- all nodes and intermediate coordinates of a segment map into a point map.
Segments to points by distance:
Segment nodes are always copied to the point map.
For each segment,
- the program starts at the begin node,
- then the segment is followed along its intermediate coordinates using straight lines, and
- after each user-defined distance interval along this path, a point is created in the point map.
