KMLTourBuilder orbit over point

@DeanAtSafeI saw your article on using KMLTourBuilder linked below. It is very helpful however I'm getting stuck creating my tour. I would like my tour to orbit over a single point. I have created a buffer around my subject point and set my tour to follow the buffer circle. This seems to work but I need to adjust my heading as I work my way around the circle. Ideally this would be a heading adjustment of thoroughly 7 roughly 51 times (360 degrees) so my camera view (heading) is always facing the middle of the circle. http://fmepedia.safe.com/articles/Samples_and_Demos/Climbing-Sydney-Harbour-Bridge-with-FME

Adobe Geospatial PDF writer cann't output some text

Hi,  I cann't use the Adobe Geospatial PDF writer to output Chinese or Japanese text.  I have tried modify my font file's name and it's name show in FME's font window to non-Chinese; also flow the help's instruction to modify the fme_text_string to rich format, like "你好", and set the parameter of Writer "Text in Rich Text Format" to yes. But both failed.  If you can output some special non-English characters to PDF?  Thanks

Compare 2 shapefile for changes

Hi There, I recently upgraded my workspace from version 2015 64 bit to 2016 64 bit. This workspace generates a shapefile as an output. I noticed that there are differences in records count in these shapefiles. I want to know the difference between the two file shapefiles to see what changed. I was hoping that ChangeDetector transformer might do this but it show all the records as changed, curious if there is a better transformer suited for this. Thanks Jay

Writing Polygon Geom to Spatialite that is on the date line

When I write a polygon geometry whose western edge is equivalent to -180.0, but in Spherical Mercator (-20037508.342789244), the longitude value switches signs and becomes positive. I have tried the same process, but writing to a GeoJSON file and no problem occurs.Is there any value modification occurring when features are written to the Spatialite format?I can provide a very simple workspace to replicate this if it is needed.For what it's worth, I believe this is a precision problem. Simply changing the western longitude from -20037508.342789244 to -20037508.34278924 "solves" the problem. It does however translate to changing the actually geometry because something that originally was equivalent to -180.0 is now -179.99999999999997.

How to convert Shapefile to CSV and extract Postal Code as well as coordinates

How can I convert .shp to .csv and include Postal code as well as lat/long? I am able to make the conversion, but only Postal code is exposed in the .csvThe original shape file has x and y axis and is using EPSG 102015, the .csv would preferably convert to EPSG 4326 and include lat/long

Incremental (ongoing) migration

Hi,What is the simplest way of to create an ongoing process that will import all "recently modified" records. "recent" means all rows in source where modified date > latest "Modified date" in destination.I have millions of rows in about 10 tables.Each row has a unique ID which can be used to overwrite the destination.I am planning to copy all fields and all rows (replica).Source database: MS SQL 2008B, Destination database: MongoDB.Thank you,

Transform NetCDF data to Feature Classes - how to reduce the processing time?

Dear FME-users,  I’m creating feature classes (polygons) from NetCDF-data. Among other things I use the transformer “RasterCellCoercer”, the transformation needs so much time.  I’ve 504 input and 504 output files. The geometry is always the same, just the values of the input data are different.  Do you’ve an idea how to reduce the processing time? Maybe a predefined grid?  Thank you so much and best regards.  Konrad

Flood modelling with lidar data and fme

I have an issue currently with lidar data and a project to calculate flood areas. The Lidar data which we have received contains reflections on the water surface (specular reflections) which cause the water surface to have elevations where there are nearby trees and vegetation. In order to create a flood senario, we will therefore not be able to use the water surfaces in the lidar data. How then will we be able to create flooding estimates in the water surface height is not reliable?

Direction of a closed curve (line)?

I have to determine the direction of a closed curve (a line where start and endpoint are the same) because I want to derive a gpx in the right direction (clockwise) from the polyline. Is there a way to do this? So I want to test if the polyline has a clockwise direction and, if not, reverse the direction. I tried the Polylineanalyzer and the azimuthcalculator, but both don't give me a solution.

Reverse Engineer kml (xml) fly over and orbit

I'm am already way over my head on this on this one. I'm trying to create several hundred kml files each one showing a specific area and slowly orbiting abound that area to show a 360 view. I have created a sample kml in google earth. Please see the attached kml. I have also attached a copy saved as .txt so you can see the xml code the kml created. Is it possible to create similar kml files in FME. I have played around with the KMLTourBuilder and the KMLViewSetter but was unable to replicate. I'm not a programmer and can't wirte xml on my own but would like to somewhat automate the process so I don't have to create each one in the Google Earth UX. Any suggestions would be very appreciated. THANK YOU THANK YOU
