Does anyone have examples of translating Microstation database linkages/attributes into Oracle Spatial
Best answer by erik_jan
Where are the database attributes stored?
Usually you can read the DGN and the database attributes and merge the two datasets using the FeatureMerger transformer, joining on the mslink attribute from the DGN (needs to be exposed on the reader feature type).
It may be an old question, an answered question, an implemented idea, or a notification-only post.
Please check post dates before relying on any information in a question or answer.
For follow-up or related questions, please post a new question or idea.

I have used the FME Quick Translator a number of times, but this is my first foray into using the FME Workbench Transformer. What I have are Microstation V8 files (converted from an old MGE project with V7 .dgns) that have a DMRS link type on the elements and there is an ODBC connection to an Access database that has MSCATALOG and the tables with the records/mslinks (example attached). I'm trying to figure how to migrate the records (mslinks for individual elements) into Oracle Spatial tables/records/spatial geometry. entitynuminfo.jpg Thanks ! Jim
