Hi I’ve got a bunch of points (1 to maybe 40+) that are changing regularly (live data), and I want to find out which polygons those points are intersecting.  They are big polygons with lots of vertices. What is the most efficient and/or fastest way to do that?Should I:Have a SQL Spatial Reader and read all those polygons and use a PointOnArea Overlayer transformer. Use a FeatureReader with a Spatial Filter Initiator OGC Intersection and use a PointOnArea Overlayer. Should I use a SQLExecutor and rely on the database?I’ve tried the first two and I’m not sure which is best.Thanks

fichier cadastre à fissionner dans FME hello ! j’ai 3 couches shapefile -bâtiments-parcelles-limites communesje veux les fusionner pour avoir un seul fichier dxf (Microstation).

j’ai deux couchesUne couche de points (ponctuel) et couche de lignes (linéaires).je veux vérifier les points isolés ou non connectés de ma couche ligne.solution svp.en pièce jointe les supports (points) à vérifier qui ne sont pas connectés aux lignes (tronçon). I have two layersA layer of points (point) and layer of lines (linear).I want to check isolated or unconnected points of my line layer.solution please.attached the supports (points) to check which are not connected to the lines (section). 

Today, when I opened FME, I was surprised to find that none of my recent progress had been saved. I’ve been working on this project daily, usually leaving my computer on standby overnight. Every day, the project would reload without any issues, and even when I manually closed FME, the recovery pop-up would appear, allowing me to restore any unsaved changes.However, today, FME didn’t offer the recovery option, and my workspace loaded without the latest changes. It was quite shocking. After some troubleshooting, I discovered that if you copy the workspace to a different directory and open it from there, the recovery option reappears. I did this and managed to recover my work, but I’m concerned that what I recovered might only be the most recent autosave, which was generated after I started investigating the issue.I'm wondering if there’s a solution to prevent this from happening again, or a way to retrieve the exact progress I lost.Additionally, is there a way to

This is supposed to be a quality of life improvement when working with unreliable data providers or when you have unreliable internet connection. I hope this functionallity exists in FME already but I could not find it.I am trying to make a custom node that saves the data stream it intercepts locally and reads that data instead if the original source doesnt come through. There are two problems that I have been unable to solve. One is that i have to run the script with feature cashing to get it to save the files and there is an error upon saving, it does not seem to understande the grouping for some reason:localize_data_2_FeatureWriter (WriterFactory): Group 2 / 2: MULTI_WRITER: No dataset was specified for MULTI_WRITER_DATASET or localize_data_2_FeatureWriter_0_DATASET or FFS_DATASET 

HiI’ve been constructing http calls to download OSM data to a .OSM file, then reading the downloaded .OSM file via a FeatureReader to generate specific outputs (yes, I know there are downloadable OSM transformers but they don’t do what’s required here).The specific problem I’m having is, not returning way or relation items into the downloaded file (if this is possible).Looking for assistance regarding the http call syntax. Below is what I’ve tried but still only returning point features (same results for both).https://overpass-api.de/api/interpreter?data=[bbox];node[building];out;way[building];out;relation[building];out;&bbox=@Value(_xmin),@Value(_ymin),@Value(_xma

We have web application that triggers FME Workspace on FME Flow server. Sometimes (rare case) we receive an error in the application “Failed to access module”.Error in log files point to problem with FME saying:2024-09-11 02:53:36.7457|Warn||||Error occurred in FMERequestor Method RequestFMEJob: System.InvalidOperationException: Failed to fetch transformation: Status: Unauthorized, Url:http://XXXXX/fmerest/v3/transformations/jobs/id/546567I have no idea why it is not accessible, because in 99% cases it works fine.  

Has someone please done a file transfer migration from one Sharepoint Online location (Site) to another Sharepoint Online location (site) and also keeping the original file Metadata, including created date, etc.. Using FME Form?  

Hi.Is there an authoritative list somewhere of which versions of FME uses which versions of Python ?So far I have: 2020=3.7, 2021=3.8, 2022=3.9+3.10, 2023=3.11, 2024=3.12I’m assuming that the Python executable is located in [FME_ROOT]\fmepython###\python3.exe (or the dll’s). Is this correct ?And where is this executable’s site-packages folder located ?Is it at [FME_ROOT]\python ? Or [FME_ROOT]\python\python312 ? Or somewhere entirely different ?And is this location the same in an FME Engine for Server/Flow ?I’m contemplating adding a special Python package for use in both desktop and server.Cheers.

Hi FME World,Anyone having this issue ? Every $%?&* time I open FME I have to replace the Navigator bar correctly through the right side. Kind of annoying.I’m using 2024.1.2 and Windows 10. 

Hi,I have a workspace that reads a shapefile. My workspace has around 450 transformers. I defined published parameters for the user to insert the row quantities of the shapefile.How can I automatically get the number of features from my file and save it in a published parameter to use in the middle of my workspace, simulating the values inserted by the user? 

I have a whopping great big table in my workbench with 2100 attribute fields in it! 😯The data originates from JSON files, and I need to write it into several csv files.The csv files need to pick up the schemas of tables in an Oracle db. These tables have a couple of hundred attribute fields / columns in, so many of my attribute fields will be dropped from the massive table in the workbench when creating the csv. This is good!The Oracle tables do not feature in the workbench at all, so I just need to grab the schema of the existing tables, bring them into the workbench, and use them in the csv writers.I’ve tried to use Schema Scanner, and Schema Mapper but with no luck. I am sure the answer must be really simple and I am doing something wrong.Any help will be much appreciated.Stuart

Is there a way to turn on logging of the SQL statements that FME is issuing to Oracle in Workbench 2014?

Is there a way in FME to run a workflow similar to esri Intersect tool where a 1 line feature (1 route) could intersect a second line feature (roads) with multiple lines and get a point feature for each crossing point with the distance along the first line feature. Basically crossing point and stationing along a line?  

I am looking to have a workspace run by a workspace runner to parse out some data to be grouped by individual tabs based on an attribute name.i have an excel workbook with a dozen or so sheets, each sheet is a type of mechanical system with 3 columns - Column A is BLD which is a string building name. Column B is System Type which had data validation in place with named table references and Column C is System Name which is a string value.i am using a feature reader with the read formulas checked:i want to have the workspace runner pass a value for BLD and search all of the sheets for matches - for instance, it looks something like this once run: 

Hello everybody! some weeks ago I asked for help with our project: calculate the distance to all schools in the city having as input one address. (Server App - calculate shortest route to several schools | Community (safe.com)) I have done it using FME Desktop (2022.2) and the result looks pretty nice:In addition I get the shortest paths to each school (each school has more than one entry).Now I have uploaded the GDB with the streets and the Shapefile with the school entries to the FME Server Ressources.I have created a server app (workspace) and run the project.There I receive this error:2024-9-30 09:01:48 | Una

Hi! I have a FME workspace using FeatureWriter to write record to some tables. When running it from desktop, it populates the tables as expected. However, if I look at the log after job is completed, the "Features Written Summary" section at the end seem to be misleading by show "0", while I know that there are actually features written.Do I need to do any change in my FME workspace to add the count to the summary? Thank you!Below is the summary part of the log:Below is the part of log for FeatureWriter, which does give the count:

Dear All, Could you please let me know is there any transformer to do Radiometric calibration and Atmospheric correction in FME?  Kindly let me know the details. Thanks, Siva 

I was able to do a cumulative count of duplicate values (where duplicate is “-1” only) using a Group By on a Counter transformer shown below. (Added note: I should have added this to remove ambiguity - SORRY. The output as shown below in the Preview is the desired output. I only care to know the number of consecutive sequential values when the value is “-1”. If the pattern changes and another series of duplicate “-1” appears, the count starts with “1” again. I don’t care if the pattern for duplicate values are greater than “0”, like “2420” on the Preview.)  Since I have more than a dozen of these attributes, I’d like to use an AttributeCreator instead but I can’t seem to use the CurrentAttribute() to accumulate duplicate values.In addition, everytime a sequence of “-1”s begin (as shown in row 143 abov

Hello Forum, I have an attribute in a gpkg dataset containing year values (e.g.: 2016). Where a year is unknown the value is <null>. When this dataset is translated into tab or geojson any values of <null> get shown as -9999. I assume that's how the MapInfo tab translator sees <null> values. But instead of -9999 this I want any <null> value to be blank. With StringReplacer I know I can replace a value such as 2016 with 3016, not that I would want to do that!. But when I type in <null> as the 'Text to replace' and leave 'Replacement text' blank, the output still shows -9999 instead of it being blank. I wonder if there is a special way of specifying <null>. How do I effectively replace <null> value in an integer attribute with blank? I've seen https

Can you provide guidance on how to convert a DWG file to a PNG image and then embed that PNG into an HTML PDF using FME? Specifically, I'm interested in preserving the visual elements like colors, hatch styles, and line widths from the original DWG file.Here are my transformers.Thank you.

Hey I think I found a bug in the GeometryExtractor, where the geoJSON writer and the GeometryExtractor that writes geoJSON geometry to an attribute lead to different results. I have a sample workbench where I buffer a point, the GeometryExtractor writes the coordinate following the wrong orientation (clockwise vertex order) but the geoJSON writer generates the correct geoJSON (counter-clockwise vertex order).is there any way to fix it? I need to write the geoJSON geometry string into an attribute. Thank you,Andrea

Hi, I am trying to rename the default fid from geopackage to MI_PRINX in my workspace, but it keeps writing as fid.   

So I have a big job to process and I’m trying to work out some theoretical numbers for the client (a rough estimate on the processing time range depending on various factors). I want to leverage the fmeworker limit of 16 parallel threads (I’m assuming a machine with essentially unlimited resources) because the fme.exe limit is 8.I have a batch job of many tiles with many rasters and features which all need to be processed at once. The easy thing to do is to just throw it to the workspace runner but the license only gives me 7-8 parallel threads (which is probably more than enough to be fair, most likely CPU will not be the bottle neck).Anyways for fun I did a test to see what the limit was on the number of parallel groups to send through a custom transformer when parallel processing was on. I pretty quickly got the following error: An error has occurred. Check the logfile above for detailsf_6 (TransformFact): Transformer 'ThreadLimi
