Data

I have an automated process which reads/writes data every 15 minutes to an ArcGIS Online feature service. It runs successfully most of the time but is fails periodically (not on any schedule). The failure message is:ArcGIS Online Feature Service Reader: SSL certificate verification failed for host 'www.arcgis.com'. HTTPS connections may not be secure. Disabling verification of SSL certificates. Message: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed (_ssl.c:590) ArcGIS Online Feature Service Reader: The server at 'https://www.arcgis.com/' does not appear to be an ArcGIS Portal instance. Verify that the host is a valid ArcGIS PortalHas anyone experienced this before?

Is it possible to convert shape file to topojson? I didn't see this format in options, but perhaps it is possible to customize in a way?

I'm new to FME and what I'm trying to do with it, is to (semi)automate a process of combining GeoJSON with a PNG background map (12000x12000 px map tile of the area, with pgw file).Right now I'm doing this process manually with QGIS, and it works, but is a little time consuming.I've already managed to read the GeoJSON and PNG with separate readers into the FME Workbench. I've added PDFPageFormatter in between and then a PDF 2D writer. Obiously the output is just the background map as a whole and the GeoJSON data somewhere in the middle.So what I'd like to get some help with, would be:a) How to crop the output PDF to cover just the area surrounding the GeoJSON and not the whole background map? I've tried this with Clipper transformer, but everytime the whole background map was lost in the process.b) The GeoJSON data contains basically lines and points with different "objecttype" attributes. I'd like t

I have a raster surface which I first converted into a TIN. Then I extruded the TIN triangles downward to get 3D objects. Afterwards I used the SolidBuilder to turn them into solids. Now I want to save these as IFC, but the IFC file always ends up empty. I guess I have to define some types, but I don't know where to start. The SolidBuilder only has _is_void as attribute.

Hello,I would like to fanout CityGML-files depending on an attribute. As far as I know, I can use the dataset fanout. On CityGML-data it creates a subfolder and a CityGML-file in it, which have both the same name. The featuretype-fanout won't work (I guess), because I have to define roofsurfaces, wallsurfaces etc. there. So is there a way to fanout CityGML without subfolders having all files in one outputfolder at the end?

Hi, when I try to send sting attibute with UTF-16 encoded string, MYSQL_DB writer shows the warning:"Skipped writing of 1 features due to unmatched non-insert writer type mode when the writer was in insert (only) mode"Is it possible that MYSQL_DB does not convert UTF-18 string into own types?

Hello,I have a Microstation drawing with dimensions. However, a part of the dimensions is being converted to a weird output when inspecting it with FME and also when writing it to a PostGIS database.Below is a screenshot of the issue. Does anyone have an idea what is causing this and more importantly, how to fix it? As you can see, only a part of the dimension is displayed in strange characters.The source file does not have these weird characters.If anyone has any idea's or tips, please let me know!Thanks in advance!

Hello,Does anyone know if FME is able to connect directly to an Analysis Services (SSAS) Tabular model. I know it can connect to SQL Server. I also know I can read an excel sheet that is connected to the tabular model, but I would like to connect directly to a tabular model.Thanks,David

I can't seem to write IFC objects that consist of multiple geometries as Multipatch - every time I try, the log says it wrote the correct number of features, but the shp file is empty. The only way I can get the geometries at all is by using the GeometryPartExtractor with Geometry Name = Body; however this separates the grouped items. When I try to use the Aggregator (with unique ID), it joins the parts together, but then I can't write them again! Is this simply not possible?See Screenshot below, I want to write a Multipatch that's grouped like the selection - right now it consists of a separate cylinder and two blocks.

Hi group! I tried to find a way to filter out point cloud points, if they have too big Z difference compared to neighbor points. I couldn't find any transformer, which would do it. I could try using buffering a point, then find the points inside the buffer, then compare the Z with the buffered point and the inside points, but with 70GB of LAS files, I think it's too heavy. Are there any PointCloud related transformers, which could do that? Basically I'm filtering out noise and clouds or errors in Z.

Hi allI've got a simple workspace that's using a generic reader to read an input shapefile or csv file. I've added a csv reader as a workspace resource so that I can set the csv reader parameters and apply them to the generic reader when the input file is csv. Works fine when tested in Desktop. The column names come through as attributes as expected. When I publish the workspace to Cloud and run using the same data, it looks like the workspace resource is ignored, the csv reader parameter settings are not applied and the attribute names come through as col0, col1, col2, etc.My FME versions are:Desktop: FME(R) 2016.1.0.0 (20160419 - Byuild 16492 - WIN32)Cloud: FME Server 2017.0.1.1 - Build 17291 - linux-x64I've attached my test workspace and data.Hopefully someone can test it to either confirm the issue or

Dear all, I did convert Shape file to citygml but i need to apply the textures to the surface any one help me how to apply the textures.

Hi all, I have a points dataset of planning applications. I also have a large number of environmental datsets as polygons. I have a spreadsheet(excel) with a list of all the polygons. Each layer will recieve a "tick" depending on whetether the point falls within the polygon, ie.yes/no boolean query. Any suggestions much appreciated.

Can I execute a MongoDB Aggregate query? Can I populate a parameter based on such a query?Thanks,

Hi I'm using FME Desktop version 2017.1. I'm trying to obtain all schema from a postgis database name here sgl. With the schema reader I obtain only one result which is the public schema. And I need to obtain all my schema : How to set my reader in ordert o get all schema ? best regards

Hi FME'ers,I am currently trying to write OS Mastermap (gml) to an Esri Geodatabase (File Geodb ArcObjects). I get so far before it through's up the error "ArcObjects Error -2147467259 Whitespace is not allowed at this location.The problem is the log file doesn't tell me where the offending whitespace is...So I look through the erroneous record to try find it but I can't see (by eye) what the problem is. Is this an ESRI issue or an FME issue? Thanks,David McDermott 

I have a workbench to translate a shapefile to Microstation DGN. In the workbench I have a parameter to let the user specify on with attribute of the shapefile the layernames in the DGN should be based. When I run the workbench in FME Workbench everything works fine and the layers in the DGN are named by the content of the attribute. But when I run the workbench in FME QuickTranslator, the layer in the DGN is named by the attribute itself.Is this a bug?

Hi,I am trying to version control the database connections that we have on our FME implementation, I have a docker setup. Unfortunately I can't find the files where these are stored, the host OS is centOS. Any chance you can point me towards the correct path where these are stored? (I use the default mounts that come with the compose file)Thanks!Regards,Miguel

Hi everyone.If I make an export to dxf from my 3D database (CityGRID) with their tools and inspect the result in Microstation my buildings look as expected:As soon as I touch the buildings with FME for further processing, even if it is just read and write to dxf again, tho whole thing is "polygonized":Even though the building is still "correct" the result looks to nervous to me (and to our customers as well).Is there a way to tell FME not to polygonize areas with the same normal? Or at least a switch that tells the CAD-Software not to show these polygons?Thank you very much for any hints.Simon

Hello  My name in Alex  I have a question  I am using FME to convert a GeoJson to Cesium 3D Tiles The conversion seems to be generated successfully. But when I try to show in Cesium, it isn't shown. I think the reason is in the coordinates, because the coordinates of the source file (GeoJson) are different than the coordinates of the final file (Cesium 3D Tiles). I choose to keep the GeoJson coordinate system, but it doesn't work  Do you know any solution?  Thanks a million  Alex

I have a feature that is a circle and stored in Oracle. When translating it to a MapInfo Tab writer, the circle does no export to a circle it is more of a 12+ sided polygon and slightly shifted.Is there a way to rectify this issue? or even assign tolerances? I have read somewhere that it relates to the number of bits - the FME version I have is 64 bit and the writer output for MapInfo TAB is 20 bit?

I would like to transform a directory with several DXF oder DWG files with a coordinate transformation and write all the DXF or DWG files into one new directory. How can I write all the files with the same schema as the input files? I need an output file per input file. I only get one merged output file from the input files. I tried to do that with dynamic reader and writer. How can I get the same amount with same schema of output files like the input files? With esri shapefile this ist easily possible with dynamic workflow.Thank you!
