Hi @nielsvhal,

If you want to extract the attribute Z from your features, I believe you can use the transformer CoordinateExtractor.

This transformer is possible to extract coordinates X, Y and Z and generate attributes:

And after this transformer you map the attribute Z to Attribute in Shapefile.

Thanks,

Danilo

Hi @nielsvhal, you can use the BoundsExtractor to extract minimum and maximum z coordinate of the feature, then calculate the height = zmax - zmin.

@Danilo @Takashi, thank you. I will try to get the option BoundsExtractor work. It seems (looking at the name) a direct answer. I will let you know if it worked for me. Thanks again, Niels

Hello, I tried to get it work. But untill now with no result. Can anybody help me out? It seems I can not find the solution on Youtube/Google etc. Hope anybody can give me the workflow in FME Workbench.

Nope, but maybe you can create a template . I have the .gml file available, than I created the BoundsExtractor with it. Unfortunalty without a result.

I have an attribute containing multiline text where an arbitrary block of lines are repeated near the end of the data. I can't just remove duplicate lines, as an individual line might be have legitimate duplicates.

The data is not in a text file that can be read bottom up, though I suppose if required it could be written to one and read back in

Hi @nielsvhal ,

Thanks your data GML.

The Workspace attached is reading the GML ( feature Building ) and using the transformer BoundsExtractor ( like @takashi wrote here ) and extract the values Zmax and Zmin.

The next Step is calculating and generate a attribute height = Zmax - Zmin.

The Data Inspector:

The Writer is a Shapefile and I added the Attribute height.

Attached the Workspace.

Thanks, - workspace-gml-to-shp.fmw

@Danilo, thanks! Tomorrow morning I am going to let it work!

Hello Danilo,
