I have line features (Streets) and Polygons (Forest). My goal is to split the line feature into a forest part and a non forest part, depending on where the line "passes by" (within a distance of 15m) by the forrest.  

In the picture you see the 2 line features with the existing endpoints in blue. I want to segment this into the new 4 segments with 1& 2 being Forest and 3 &4 being noForest

 

Appreciate the help 🙂

Maybe create a 15m buffer around the polygon and then use clip tool to split the lines?
