Locates point features along route lines and writes route-measure attributes.

vector linear-referencing routes points

## Parameters

Name | Description | Required | Default
--- | --- | --- | ---
`routes` | Input route line layer. | Required | `routes.shp`
`points` | Input point layer to locate along routes. | Required | `events.shp`
`max_offset_distance` | Optional maximum point-to-route offset distance. | Optional | —
`output` | Output point vector path. | Required | —

## Examples

Adds route-measure attributes to points by locating them on the nearest route.

    wbe.locate_points_along_routes(max_offset_distance=25.0, output='located_points.shp', points='events.shp', routes='routes.shp')
