ContourGenerator

From Fmepedia

ContourGenerator is a Workbench Transformer.

Generates contour lines at a specified interval, using 3D points, 3D lines and/or breaklines as input. The contours can be output as 3D lines or 2D lines with an elevation attribute.

The underlying surface is built using the z tolerance as specified by the Tolerance parameter. This should be set to the larger of the accuracy of the elevation data being input and the accuracy of the output elevation that is required.

The contour interval indicates the interval in z-direction between consecutive contour lines. I.e. a 5-meter interval will generate a contour at 5 meter elevation, a next one at 10 meter, another one at 15 meter and so on.
