I am trying to clip pavement polygons in Arc Pro (but will use postgis or other software), and I'm using transects to do this. My method is:
- Generate the centreline of the polygon
- Use the Generate Transects Along Lines to generate transects
The issue is that the transects are a set length, and there are areas of the pavement larger than others. However, if I increase the length of the transects, this is causing duplication of transects at other points in the network. I realise I can explode these lines, but I do not want the lines so close together.
Is there a way to generate transects where you are able to specify the length of the transect to be the extent of a polygon, rather than a set length? This does not have to be in Arc and I'm open to other software.
