Hi there!

 

I'm new to FME, so I apologize if I ask for a commonplace. My task is to create a 3D PDF, which will be a sequence of geological layers. Each layer is described by two files in the geotiff format - one corresponds to the top of the geological layer, the second to the sole.

I converted them to TIN-surfaces, afer which I tried to convert them to mesh, but the Mesh-builder transformer rejects them. I also tried to go the way of creating 3D polygons as in this example, but, again, I could not convert polygons to mesh.

Output example and 2 layers are attached.

 

Thanks!

Use the SurfaceModeller Transformer and have a look at the TINSurface Output Port. There you'll find your Mesh. FME doesn't distinguish between Mesh and TIN, each TIN is of the geometry type Mesh.
