Hello,

 

 

I wiould like to convert csv file which has Lat/long in atrributes to KML. I am adding point to KML using "2DpointAdder". It works fine if I have static source schema. But I have csv files with only Lat/long as common attributes and other attributes may vary.

 

 

e.g. CSV 1 contains "Attr1,Attr2,Lat,Long"

 

CSV 2 contains "Test1,Test2,Lat,Long"

 

CSV3 may contain "Lat,Long,XYZ,ABC,DEF"

 

 

What is the best way to convert these csv to KML?

 

 

Cheers

 

John
John,

 

 

Set the process up as a Dynamic process, then on the canvas add a CoordinateSystemSetter first to define the local grid, then add an AttributeExposer to expose the Long/Lat attributes to the workspace. Now add your 2DPointReplacer (VertexCreator). Now give that a go running several CSVs.

 

 

You may also need to expose the attribute fme_basename so that you can fanout to either multiple KML files or multiple KML layers by CSV.

 

 

Cheers, Dave
Thanks Dave.
