I have several input featureclasses (all polygon) which I tile. I want to output to a geodatabase per tile containing any features from any of the feature classes for that tile. I have successfully done this by dataset fanout on tile ID and attribute fanout on fme_basename. However this also produces what appears to be folders of geodatabase content for each tile. I obviously don't want this to happen but don't know how to stop it. Any ideas? I can supply the workspace .
I have solved the riddle, I was trying to use a template database too. I didn't need this but it was creating the above mentioned folders and apparent gdb content.
Hi @ian2016, you might want to use Feature Type Fanout fanctionality, rather than Dataset Fanout. See this doc: Setting Feature Type Fanout
