That depends on exactly what you’re trying to do, but assuming you’re trying to measure e.g. FA along/within tracts, you should take a look at [tcksample](http://mrtrix.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference/commands_list.html#tcksample) and [tckresample](http://mrtrix.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference/commands_list.html#tckresample). There used to be an option to allow the sample positions to be defined in template space, but things have changed a bit as of [today’s version update](https://community.mrtrix.org/t/mrtrix3-version-incremented-to-0-3-15/300/1), so I’m not sure what the process is now. @rsmith should be able to fill in the gaps…
