Extend a path to include given start and end points

This function extends the calculated shortest path to start and end with the provided start_pt and end_pt geometries. This ensures that the final sample of new points along the re-routed path include the portion of the line from the start_pt/end_pt to the nearest network node.

Usage

prt_extend_path(l_geom, start_pt, end_pt)

Arguments

l_geom

geometry passed from inside prt_shortpath()

start_pt

start point

end_pt

end point

Value

linestring
