I have a first shapefile with points indicating the number of inhabitants. I have a second shapefile with surfaces. I would like to know the number of inhabitants for each surface in FME. What is the process?

You are probably looking for the SpatialRelator. As an alternative the PointOnAreaOverlayer can be used.
