Hi all,
I'm looking for a tool / workflow on how I can create mileage points
basing on a track. I hope that's the right vocabulary here, but I'll
describe what I want anyway ;-)
I have a bicycle track and I want to get the points after a specified
(cumulated) distance - say you start at (an artificial) 0 starting
point and now I want a point on the track every 1000m or so. So you'll
get a point after 1000m, 2000m, 3000m and so on just until the track
ends.
Is there a tool with which I can achieve what I want? Or do I have to
dive into the Python interface to do this programatically?
What you are speaking about is called a "Linear Reference System", and
GRASS has the v.lrs.* suite of tools to deal with that.
