CoordinateFeatureExtractor takes a user defined series of coordinates from an existing feature and creates a new feature from them. It would be a useful transformer to grab the start and end points of a line.


The two settings are Start Coordinate and Coordinates to Use.

Start Coordinate is the first coordinate in the new feature. It can be a negative number (eg -1) to signify from the end of the feature - in which case the points used will be counted backwards.

Coordinates to Use are the number of coordinates in a new feature. 1 will give a point feature. >1 will give a line feature (or polygon if start point = end point).
