Hey all,I have a Revit file and I'm using the IFC reader to translate my data. Is there an attribute or way to call the file path of the IFC reader that contains the data? In CAD or SHP I can use an attribute that contains the path. However, with IFC data, it appears that attribute is blank. What I really want is the name of the IFC/Revit file. I tried using some of the FME parameters, but the path remains the same when the Revit file is replaced with a different Revit file. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks!

Hello,I have text attributes of dimensions - such as 500/90 , 800/460, 30/90 etc. In a result I need to get the largest dimension value and delete the rest. For example - get the value 800 (and delete /460) or get 90 (and delete 30/ ).Any ideas, how to manage this?

I have 10 image in a (.tif) format without coordinate system. I would like to get the same result in the link below, that is, in my case, a final output to the 10 images merged into one GeoTIFF file.https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/22971/basic-raster-mosaicking.htmlWhen I had add the reader, I have select the multiple images, but the images overlap each other in the same position. How can I solve this and then get the final output?

I'm using Map 3D 2018 64 bit and a trial version of FME 2017.1.0 64 bit.However I cannot get FME to load into the data connector in Map 3D. I have used the integration console to enable FME.I'm trying to translate Mapinfo TAB files into Map 3D including the object data from MApInfo

Hi!I have a question regarding ArcGIS Online Readers in FME (2017.1.2). I set up a connection to an existing feature service and created the feature types of the reader. After that, the name of the service (but not its schema or configuration) was changed through the AGOL web site. Since FME cannot find the source anymore, I wanted to change the value of the parameter 'Feature Service'. However, this does not seem to be possible. Neither through published parameters nor the Navigator entry itself.Or there a specific reason for that? Or might it be a bug? What I would expect is the same behaviour as e.g. for a File GDB (change path / change path and update feature types if schema has changed).Greetings, André

Hi, I am pretty new to FME and trying to get my head around the new NetCDF sSupport.I have a NetCDF 4 file with two raster bands: MEAN_WIND (magnitude) and MEAN_WIND_DIR (radians). I need to convert this to two new raster bands U and V. I.e. a vector equivalent to the input bands.The math is like this:mean_uwave = Math.Cos( mean_wave_dir * 2 * Math.PI / 360.0 ); mean_vwave = Math.Sos( mean_wave_dir * 2 * Math.PI / 360.0 ); But how would I apply this calculation to NetCDF files?Thanks.Garth

I have "dirty" lidar data containing first and last returns and also errors under and over the surface level. (Screenshot)What would be a good workflow to clean this data? Is there a full automated method or would I somehow be deleting manually?

I have a workspace which writes geometry features from SDE SQL to Netezza. Most of the time the workspace fails for certain features. But the same workspace goes through if I use the Attribute filter and run those specific features which caused to fail.Any idea for this behavior please?Thanks

Hi everyone, I'm trying to read WFS Datas. In order to have a smaller flow, I use a XML Filter. If I read just one Feature Type, it is OK, I get all its features.But I just ask for two Feature Type, I get no features and the following message :Here is the XML Filter I use :<Filter xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/fes/2.0"><PropertyIsEqualTo><ValueRef

Hi,We 100+ years of rainfall data that we would like to find 3 consecutive days where the rainfall is greater than 50mm after a certain date. I can do this in Excel but I can't for the life of my figure out how to do it in FME. Does anyone know if it is possible?In excel adding three consectutive days rainfall is pretty simple =SUM(F2:F4) and fill down the column.Cheers,Dale

I was wondering what workflows people use with FME workbench to take a classified point cloud and transform it into a DEM with contours, DSM, and DTM.I'm working with a dataset that has around 30Million points with low,med,and high vegetation. This objective is to take all the vegetation, transmission line, and transmission tower and display it as a 3D surface onto Google Earth.

Hi,I want to use Scheme(Anyformat) for reading WFS structure, it is working fine for excel, csv,shapefile, FileGeodatabase and even ESRI FeatureService but not WFS.I want to use generic reader, so I have to use this reader for all of them and I know FeatureReader can read WFS without issue.Has anyone had this problem ? Any solution ?Regards 

Hi,I am using FME 2015 version.I am developing a web service application to read data from ArcSDE database using 'GEODATABASE_SDE' reader. While reading the feature from the reader, it throws an exception as 'No definition was found for coordinate system 'ESRI(ESRI)'. The log file information is shown in the attached image: But, I tested the same code in windows forms application and it is working fine. It finds the matching projection and read the data successfully. Its log file information is shown in the attached image: Kindly clarify how to resolve this issue. Thanks  Sivakumar

I was interested to see the new PowerPoint writer and transformer for FME 2018, but I cannot find any documentation on these items. Is there any?

Hello,   Does anyone know how to read mesh objects from a dgn? I need to create solids from these features, but the meshes all seem to come in as 2d lines, nowhere near the rest of the 3d lines where they should be extruded.  Would be grateful for any assistance with this!  Thanks,   Owen

Hi, I would like to create a workflow to download and merge vector data from a WFS. The city of Vienna provides building footprints in shape format via WFS. Due to the large filesize it is recommended to reduce one download to a tile of 2x2 kilometers or smaller. As I need the complete dataset I try to create a workspace to download all tiles with getfeature requests (e.g. https://data.wien.gv.at/daten/geo?service=WFS&version;=1.0.0&request;=GetFeature&typeName;=ogdwien:FMZKGEBOGD&outputFormat;=shape-zip&SRS;=EPSG:31256&BBOX;=2748,341794,4516,343209) and then merge the tiles into a File GDB. Is it possible to dynamically create the request by inserting the necessary bounding box coordinates and then merge data directly out of a ZIP file. Tha

I have multiple csv files that i need to combine. Table structure looks like below. I want the output to look like Table 3 and 4.

I am creating xyz files from a DEM Raster using the RasterCellCoercer to create a point feature containing heights from the DEM. I am writing first into an ESRI geodatabase, and then using the coordinate extractor to write X,Y,Z fields to a CSV file then renaming it to *.xyz.Is there maybe a more straight forward way of doing this? Could I cut out the ESRI Geodatabase and write directly from the RasterCellCoercer into a xyz?

I have two files in a common directory with the following naming scheme{Know prefix}_{variable suffix} {Know prefix}_{known infix}_{variable suffix}ex. ABC_123 ABC_XYZ_123Is there an easy way to read in only the file without the infix? The standard wildcard {prefix}* will pick up both files. Currently I'm testing the fme feature type to see whether or not it contains the infix, but ideally I would like to not even read it in.

Hello,I am unable to read attachments from my hosted feature service on Portal, using the Esri ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Reader. If I set "Include Attachments" to no, I am able to read the hosted data without attachments, but when I set "Include Attachments" to yes, my translation fails, and I get the following error:Here are the reader parameters used when the workspace fails:Does anyone have any ideas on why this isn't working? I have attached the full log file (run with debugging turned on) in case that helps.Thank you,Courtney

Hello,  I am trying to make a Shape file from my DWG. I am trying to use only one layer from DWG because that is all I need. Basically I am trying to close all the polygons in that layer, and calculate their area and to write their area in shp. I am not getting a good result and I have no idea what could be the problem.Also, I was wondering if I can get a result written in form of "P= "number" m2". Now I am getting this from screen shot.

HelloI write solids to KML and want to give the borderlines/wireframe of the solid a different color/alpha in order to get better visibility of the solid.I try KMLStyler with Color 0,0,0 (black) and Opacity 1 and Fill Color set to red and Fill Opacity set to 0.7.I don't see any effect however. There is no wireframe visible, like I used to get it years ago with the first version of KML writer ...Any hints what maybe wrong ?Seems like I need to duplicate the wireframe as independent feature ...

Hello, I am trying to make a raster from two SHP files. It is a bit specific so I would like to ask you if maybe somebody has any good idea what is the best idea how to solve this.  I am having two input Shape files that have multiple attributes. In one file, I first want to take only two classes from one attribute (ROADS: Motorway and Residential) and give them specific thickness, all the others can be normal width. (I was wondering if the best way to solve it is Tester ---> AttributeCreator).After that, I would like to prepare that for printing. Best way would probably be transforming it to raster. (MapnikRasterizer???) I would need to specify the window that I want to be printed and I know that it can be done with MapnikRasterizer.  I am looking forward to all good ideas and suggestions how to solve this.Thank you all in advance!
