Get a substring from a linestring — remove_line_endpoints

Wrapper over lwgeom::st_linesubstring with possibility to either use meters or

remove_line_endpoints_lwgeom(
  shp_line,
  id_col,
  min_distance_m_to_remove = NULL,
  min_proportion_remove = NULL
)

Arguments

min_distance_m_to_remove: distance to remove EACH SIDE: so 2X for total removed
min_proportion_remove: proportion to remove EACH SIDE: so 2X for total removed

Details

Not exported: remove_line_endpoints wraps this function and is the function to use

remove_line_endpoints_lwgeom performs the same functionality as remove_line_endpoints_from_split but is faster, more robust, and allows for fractions to be inputed, not just distances in meters
