Hi, I have a polygon that has a centerline. The polygon does not have straight sites (its a peninsula) and I need normal lines (orthogonal) to the centerline that extend to the site of the polygon. The orthogonal lines should be spaced in a certain intervall. Any ideas? Thanks Tim

Hi, I tackled the problem with the Geowizard extension, which is available at: http://www.ian-ko.com/ You can download it and dont have to register it, even though you can't use all tools you can use the centerline tool or polygons and that does the trick. It takes a while playing around with the tool but it is worth it. Sometime when the polygon varies to much in size it does not quite work so well but if you split up your polygons in several and apply the tool to all and then put a new shapefile (line) over the individual created centerlines it does a good job. Hope that helps. Thanks for the links and post. 😉

Hi, I have a shapefile/polygon of a peninsula and I want to produce a line that intersects the polygon in the middle of the peninsula, therefore always has the same distance to the shore left and right even if the form of the peninsula changes (slims or gets wider). Is there any way to do that ? I know if I would have the line I could produce the polygon with the buffering tool, but is there an inverse way ? Thanks Tim
