How to find the alignment station closest to the points

[andre.demski]

Hi, how are you?

I need to find the alignment station closest to the points I have. I thought about projecting the points onto the curve, but one way to find that is to use the “Point.Project” node, but I don’t know what to put in the “projectionDirection”. Would anyone know how to help me?

Instead of projecting the point onto the curve, try the Geometry.ClosestPointTo node.

Hi @andre.demski,

Have you tried the Alignment.StationOffsetByPoint node?

Thank you very much!

I had seen this node but I thought it would return the station only if the point was coincident with the alignment.
