CATIA v5 Extracting the Mathematic Description of a Line

Hello! I am currently working on a project with CATIA v5 where we need to determine the curvature of a stringer centerline. The centerline is the result of an intersection of two surfaces. I know that I can use the Porcupine Analysis tool to view the curvature of the line, but that is rather cumbersome, and it doesn't seem like you are able to automate it or extract data from it. What I would like to do is use VBA or Python to extract the mathematic description of the line. I am pretty new to CATIA automation with VBA, and I cannot seem to find this information. Does anyone here have any ideas?

Thanks!
Hunter Johnston
