Data

I converted a gml data to cesium 3d tiles.It got converted to cesium 3d tiles correctly but the data is getting an extra added height.The 3d tiles data is not getting aligning properly with the basemap.The 3d tiles data is in the air.What could be the reason.Please check the attachment image.The tile is in the air.

Hey all,I'm just recently working with FME. We are using fme for converting xyz pointclouds to geotiff format. Converting is not longer a problem (thanks to the fast help here).But now i'm looking how i can set a boundrie for the geotiff. (drawn in blue) As you will see in picture i have added here the geotiff also gives elevation where there is no data. (blue circle).I know that in C3D i can set a boundrie for the geotiff or give a max triangle length(witch is not the best solution but also works for this problem). Is there anything like that possible in FME? Many thanks,Koen

On the safe software site, I realize that there are only 64-bit FME products for Linux. I have a 32bit oracle database and obviously use a 32bit client. How will this linux FME enable the Oracle reader?

Hello FMErs,I am wanting to read a .log file from a specific directory, run it pass a tester on a specific attribute and then output the result in excel file format. I plan to place this on the server for self serve.example file attached. I had to change the file extension to .txt due to attach rules.suggestions?thanks in advance.

I'm calling a child Workspace using a WorkspaceRunner. The child Workspace says translation was successful as does the WorkspaceRunner, but when I reviewed the log for the child Workspace, I noticed there were warnings like this: "Provider error `(-2147217873) Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'xxxx'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'yyyy'". If this happens, I want the Workspace to fail/terminate. Is there a way I can do this? Would a FeatureWriter transformer rather than a normal Writer give me this functionality?

Hi Community,After reading this article here, I felt I should tailor my question for my particular challenge and request help from @GerhardAtSafe and @stewartharper, (and if you could point me to the youtube videos and github repo mentioned there I'd be so grateful!) My question pertains to creating a similar process as the "FME Cloud API return ZIP file", but with a few variations in the workflow.What I want to do is call a varying number of CSV files, created as output from another set of FME workspaces executed on Cloud/server, into a workspace(s) which parses some media UUIDs from a couple columns in the CSV into a single line item list. This list of media UUIDs is then used to pull the media from an S3 bucket, and push to another S3 bucket. Now, this next steps is where it gets tricky in the workflow. * How can I enable to ZIP up all the media into one zipped file, give it a date_timestamp file name, such as update_03OCT2018_0830utc.zip, (or what ever may come from s

Hello,I have researched this topic quite a bit and have not been able to solve my issue. I am simply wanting read ArcGIS online feature service layers. I thought it might be a proxy issue, but confirmed with IT that the proxy is fine. I put in my credentials and then click on the ellipses for Feature Service. It will simply look and then time out. I have also tried all the authentication types as well and none of them work.Is anyone else having this issue?

Good afternoon all, I'm trying to create a large nested JSON document from SQL to load into MongoDB. Currently I have managed to create the JSON file but i'm not able to load it into Mongo based on the size of the documents. The maximum size for documents is 16MB while my average document size is over 50MB. A solution I have thought of is to bucket each of the sub files so that instead of thousands of documents being embedded into each root there is a maximum limit of say 500 and then a new document is created with the same root, but a continuation of the Sub documents. In the end instead of a single 50MB document I would be left with say 10 identical documents that would hold different Sub documents from one another. I could then query the set of 10 documents using $unwind so that it treated them as a single document of sorts. Does anyone know of a way to achieve this within FME Workbench instead of loading all sub documents into a root?

I have a workspace which reads a CSV (CSV Reader) file for a parameter which is used in a web service call. At the end of the workspace, the CSV file is updated (CSV Writer). This approach work OK on fme desktop; however, when it is run on FME server 2017, instead of updating the CSV file (same file as reader), it simply returns the CSV file as a download--leaving the original file unmodified.Is there any way to ensure that the file which is consumed by the reader is updated by the writer?Thanks

I have xml data (see attached). I'm trying to get the following result from this data:ID= 9328Buffer PH = 6.39BS_CA = 68.2and so on. I have no issues flattening the data, my problem is that the "buffer PH" for example needs to be an column with value of 6.39 as the data. But with the way the xml is set up the basic flattening gives me a feature for every <Data/> tag. I can use the transposer, but then I lose other info related to that sample. This particular xml only has one sample, but there can be multiple samples.

I have been given a dgn file and imodel i.dgn that contain 3D solids and shapes. I can work with either file, but need to read the data into FME as 3D solids and translate them to a different 3D data format e.g. FBX. I have had the most luck with the .dgn file using the Bentley Microstation Design (V8) reader with some data read in as a fme_solid, but most of the data has a fme_gemoetry type of fme_line. Previously I had some success reading an i.dgn file using the Bentley i-model Interchange Format reader, but with this data it doesn't seem to read all the 3D objects. How can I read all the data from the dgn files as fme_solids? In Bentley View the model looks like this...In FME inspector using the Bentley Microstation Design (V8) reader it looks like this...In FME inspector using the Bentley i-model Interchange Format reader it looks like this...Note I'm using FME version 2018.1 and have 2019.0 beta installed

Hi.I know that FME is case sensitive per se, but I've just had it report some curious errors in an UPDATE operation.Apparently 5 fields with similar names were spelled differently case-wise in a database that's case-insensitive. E.g. one field was "ImageFile", another "Imagefile1". Renaming the attributes fixed that of course.Before that, it erred because I attempted to update a field with type "varchar(250)" with a value (created in AttributeManager) that FME determined to be "varchar(200)". Yes, really.And lastly, FME erred because there were extra attributes in the feature, that aren't in the database table. Instead of just ignoring them, which really ought to be an option. Removing them solved this issue.Updating a larger field with a smaller value should also just be accepted, and not throw an error.And FME already prompts the target database for all sorts of information before pushing data into it. Would it then be too much to a

Is it possible to create an FME workflow that will periodically check a hosted feature service for updates or edits, and then generate a report of those edits made and by who? If someone has done something similar before please let me know.

Hi FMEer's!Can someone kindly point me to tutorials/webinars of where the workbench is writing particularly large amounts of data to spatial and non-spatial databases? I have many models that write to Oracle databases, SQL Server, ArcSDE etc. However, I find that the moment we start writing 100's of thousands of records it is quite slow. It's generally quicker to import a table into one of the databases and do the truncate and load through a database management software. Some of the methods I use in FME are: - Change detection and use FME_DB_OPERATION = Insert or Delete (Not sure really how to use the Update) - Truncate table and insert (Use this when the table is massive and change detection is just not feasible)- Write to ESRI file geodatabase first and then copy to ArcSDEAny help is much appreciated, I just want to make my models more efficient! Kind regards,Kam

I have an FMW script that includes an AttributeCreator transformer. I want to include 500 additional attribute creator transformers. It would be tedious to create them in the workbench. Instead, I would like to create them with a little Python script and then splice the generated code into the FMW script. Is there any documentation on how to manipulate the FMW text file?

Does anyone know if FME has compatibility with MongoDB's GridFS to store documents that are larger than 16MB? I've written an embedded JSON but the average document size is 49MB. Will I need to load it into mongo outside of FME or is there capability for this currently?

Hey all,I'm a new user of FME. And we are using FME (or trying to) to convert bathymtrie data (in PTS format) to geotiffs. We used to do it in C3D but after seeing some vids of fme i think it will be allot faster and easier using fme.So i googled it and tried some things but i keep ending up with the same error log ( in a picture below.). After some more search work i got the advice to first convert the PTS format to a LAS format. But still i'm givin the same error. I'm guessing there is something wrong with my parameters? Thanks for the help. Grts,Koen

This is what I haveThis is what I needAs you can see I need to transpose the ID but retaining the rest. I am unsure how to phrase the question so I guess the images shows my problem better than my phrasing!My table has more than thousand records and I tried many combinations of sorter, counter, attributeexploader and so on until the point that I am very confused as how to even approach this in FME. Any suggestions are appreciated! And yes, I'm very new to FME. Output should be a csv but that is less of a concern right now.

Hello. I have to read a number of xml files that are "version 3", modify the contents and write them out as "version 4". The changes include renamed xml tags, some reorganization, addition of some new tags etc. When I read in an xml it deserializes the contents into attributes (which is really great!). I'd like to make my modifications to these attributes (and their values), then write out the result. Instead it writes back out the original file contents which it has saved in the attribute xml_fragment. Is there a way I can tell the writer to output the contents of the attributes and not the xml_fragment?
