Description

The tool allows one to split lines at certain points. The points must be provided as point shapes.
The order in which the input lines are stored is retained, i.e. split parts are inserted at their original location in the dataset. By using a minimum vertex distance, a splitting close to existing line vertex locations can be avoided.

Parameters

Name	Type	Identifier	Description	Constraints
Input
Lines	shapes, input	LINES	The input lines to split.
Split Features	shapes, input	SPLIT	The points at which the input lines are to be split.
Output
Intersection	shapes, output	INTERSECT	The split lines.
Options
Output	choice	OUTPUT	Choose the output line type, either polylines or separate lines.	Available Choices: [0] polylines [1] separate lines Default: 1
Epsilon	floating point number	EPSILON	The tolerance used to find the point-line intersections [map units].	Default: 0.000000
Minimum Vertex Distance	floating point number	MIN_VERTEX_DIST	The minimum distance of a point to a line vertex in order to split the line at the point's location [map units].	Default: 0.000000
