Greetings,

Could someone possibly recommend a spatial relation matrix that would select practically identical lines, but not quite identical?

Just detecting if lines overlaps or crosses, etc. is not sufficient for my purposes.

I have read:

And its still not clear to me what matrix would be suitable for selecting practically identical lines. I have tried many possibilities, but I am doing trial and error with educated guesses. Everything I have tried is either not strict enough or too strict and doesn’t select anything.

Please see the attached image for what I mean by practically identical lines. I would like the purple lines to select the orange lines and only the orange lines. (I am only showing similar lines that I would like to select to avoid confusion.)

Actually I think that showing us the example with all lines will make it easier to think about solutions.

A small buffer around the selecting lines might help ?
