Points to Polyline
Transforms individual points into continuous polylines by connecting them in the order they appear or based on a selected attribute. This feature is ideal for generating linear features such as routes or boundaries from point data. Points can be grouped by a specific data field, allowing for the creation of multiple polylines from categorized point sets..
