Question

How can I carry over attributes from a GIS .shp to a SnakeGrid MicroStation .dgn, using FME?

I have the SnakeGrid projector so can convert coordinate systems but can't seem to carry the attributes over (I have tried AttribueManager and AttributeCopier). Also, can I input several .shp and run a batch to export as .dgn with attributes carried over? Any help would be massively appreciated.

Hi @oli2wd,

To save the SHP attribute information in a DGN, you'll need to write the information as tags. I think this article might help you with what you are trying to achieve.

To be able to read many SHP files and write to DGN, you'll need to set up a dynamic workflow. We have a couple tutorials that can help you understand how to set this up:

Hope this information helps!
