Title:

 

The VertexAngleCalculator custom Transformer

Brief description:

 

A Transformer that, given an Area or Line feature, calculates the directional change at each vertex. Output is available as both a measure on the original feature, or as seperate vertices containing the angles as attributes.

A file containing your project demo or result:

 

An entry on the FME Hub.

I love doing these kinds of calculations on geometry, and I had already researched the required steps once before. Seems rude not to try it in FME and to share it with others. I originally needed the angles to determine whether a polygon was clockwise or counterclockwise.

Since I can't compete with a puppy, here's a typical Dutch winter scenery of enthousiastic folk going to work:

 

The Hub transformer is password-protected, mostly to make sure that any feature requests or bugs go through me and we don't end up with 20 versions of this. If someone does want to see the content, please do let me know and I'll happily send it over without a password.

TITLE:

 

Predicting football results using FME. Reducing hours of analysis down to 10 seconds.

 

 

BRIEF DESCRIPTION:

 

There are hundreds of football games taking place across Europe each weekend. To determine the best matches to place a wager can be very difficult. Using open data (upcoming fixtures compared with historical form) I am using FME to quickly analyse the matches that are best to bet on each game week. What used to take hours to analyse is now being achieved using an FME workspace that takes under 10 seconds to run. I have it set up on FME Server to send me (and my friends!) an email each time there are new decent bets available. It also now tweets from a new dedicated account @deadcerts.

 

I'm sharing the workspace here, and hopefully I will get some feedback and improvements from other tied up with FME and Football as their main work/hoby! If you make any improvements, which I'm sure you will, then maybe we can collaborate on a Github project? You can contact me @pinpointalerts

 

DOWNLOAD THE WORKSPACE:

 

fme-football-predictor.zip

 

Are you making the bets too? How are they doing? I noticed the last couple of weeks had some horrible draws to mess you up. Do you just pick them all as a straight win, or do permutations? I'm guessing with say, 5/6 coming off, permutations might be the way to go.

 

nb: I've just downloaded the workspace to take a look - interested to see how it works.

Hi Mark - using permutations. I get an email and quickly deduce from it what's worth including. All in, takes about 5 minutes of my time which is great. Thinking of adding a Tester to filter out any Wigan results - they always seem to let me down! ;)
