Wow - I'd never heard of the CoordinateConcatenator; you learn something every day! For my part the things I would try are...

If you want a separate line per coordinate in the CSV then follow it up with an AttributeSplitter and then a ListExploder. I've never tried the OGCGeometryExtractor, so can't really comment. > A related question: I also need to output the list of line id's > related to each node.

For the CSV this is almost exactly what you need. If you're having to create separate streams of data to create the coords and the line ids then you'll probably have to follow up with a Sorter to get everything into the correct order before writing to CSV. > Thanks! > Thom Mark Get the maximum benefit from your FME, FME Objects, or SpatialDirect via our Professional Services team.
