Sep. 21-22, 2006 v FME Worldwide User Conference - Vancouver Working with Linear Reference Systems using FME Mark Stoakes, Safe Software
2
Linear Referencing Systems 2 National Road Network National Research Canada Center for Topographic Information Responsible for National Road Network NRN model defines the road network by using an Linear Referencing System (LRS) approach Network Linear Elements Events along the NLE Linear Referencing Method is the technique used to match the event to the NLE
3
Linear Referencing Systems 3 Linear Referencing Method
4
Linear Referencing Systems 4 Linear Referencing Method Event Locations can be described by: LRM by Percentage from % to % LRM by Measure from distance to distance LRM by position from vertex # to vertex # Event Tables BlockedPassage, ExitNumber, NumberOfLanes, RaodClass, RaodSurface, RouteName, RouteNumber, Structure
5
Linear Referencing Systems 5 Segmented Models All attributes are on each segment If an attribute changes along the road – between road junctions - (i.e. speed limit) then the road is segmented.
6
Linear Referencing Systems 6 LRS vs. Segmented RoadSurface Event NID From To PavementStatus PavementSurface
7
Linear Referencing Systems 7 FME Workspace Requirement for lossless conversion between the LRS & Segmented – in both directions. LRS Segmented Segmented LRS Support LRM %, measure & position Preserve NLE & Segment orientation
8
Linear Referencing Systems 8 FME Workspaces
9
Linear Referencing Systems 9 Conversion Issues LRS Segmented Splitting NLE into Segments based on several event tables Coordinate projections – all data is in LL and many distance calculations Attaching all event attributes to each segment Segmented LRS Joining Segments to form NLE Closed loops (linear rings) New Transformers LengthToPointCalculator & DistanceSnipper TCL – to calculate measure attributes for %, distance, position LRM (more advanced than MeasureGenerator)
