Can you got into more detail on the last part ....FeatureMerger to join the points' attributes back onto the lines after exposing the first close candidate list member.
Not sure how to expose the first close candidate list member.

The choice is yours on how to implement this. You could either directly use the NeighbourFinder directly on the lines as Base specifying the points as Candidates, or you could do it the other way around and use a FeatureMerger to join the points' attributes back onto the lines after exposing the first close candidate list member. I haven't tested, but the latter is potentially more efficient. > > Jason > > ________________________________ > > From: [email protected] on behalf of Brian > Sent: Mon 2006-08-07 1:39 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [fme] Merge Point Attributes with Line > > > > I need to merge the attributes of a point to the line that the point > lies on. > > I have used the PointOnLineOverlay but it breaks the lines where the > point was located which I can not have. > > Is there another function to use that gives similar results as the > PointOnLineOverlay WITHOUT breaking the line at the point? > > Thanks. > Brian > > > > > > > > > Join us at the FME Worldwide User Conference Sept. 21-22, 2006 Vancouver BC Canada.
