I am trying to convert a Google KML file to ESRI Shapefile and to include the ExtendedData as attributes.European Space Agency is publishing planned satellite observation scenario as a KML file that has several attributes in the ExtendedData tag (see ). These attributes are always the same, as here:<ExtendedData> <Data name="SatelliteId"> <value>S1A</value> </Data> <Data name="DatatakeId"> <value>1C269</value> </Data> <Data name="Mode"> <value>EW</value> </Data> <Data name="Swath"> <value>NA</value> </Data> <Data name="Polarisation"> <value>DH</value> </Data> <Data name="ObservationTimeStart"> <value>2017-06-06T20:19:16</value> </Data> <Data name="ObservationTimeStop"> <value>2017-06-06T20:20:32</value> </Data> <Data name="ObservationDuration">
Hello,It's hard to explain. I'm french guy and new in FMEI give you a "fmw" file and try to explain my problem. I try to transform an AIXM 4.5 file to an AIXM 5.1 file. This concern the "AirportHeliport" feature. I follow different examples on the FME website and some examples in my office.I have a problem with the final schema. I try to obtain the "servedCity" structure at the end of the transformation but in the final output file (XML File) the structure "ARP" disappear ... I don't want that, but i don't understand why ...So, if i connect the bookmark "servedCity" the result with ARP disappear and if i disconnect "servedCity" the result with ARP appear.what is wrong with the "geometryPropertysetter" transformer ? I saw it's necessary to use it with the XML_Geometry type but i don't understand why the structure in the xml file disappearPlease some helpMy first Zip : airportheliport_without_se
Hi everybody!I'm facing a problem with the ocgkml Writer. When I route 3D surface geometry of building models to the writer, I'm getting flipped surfaces for my facade features. Unfortunately this behaviour doesn't remain constant for all facade triangales, some of them are oriented correctly and some are not. The input features look correct to me and exports to collada prove this to be wright.An export with FME 2015 also shows a correct export with all walls oriented correctly. So this has to be an issue with FME 2016 and 2017. Has anybody else encountered this behaviour and found some workaround for this? Find attached the sample data together with a snipped of the workspace and the exported KML filesThanks in advance to everybody who can help me!
Hi, I came across the following issue: using a directory and path reader (filtering for files only) and supplying an empty folder works fine (it doesn't produce any files, but that's just fine). However, say I want to skip any processing from this reader, as an innocent user I supply the Windows nul: device. Now my workspace crashes, how is that? Of course, there are a lot of ways around this problem, but wouldn't it be nice if the directory and path reader behaves in the same way like, say, the Windows dir command?
Hi team.I extracted json from http caller. extracted json file attached. json.txt.in this json there are array of points. the path of these points is. ucan see these points after "paths"(text string)routes{0}.routeOptions{0}.optionAttributes.spatialReference.geometry.paths{0}.array{0}.array{0} routes{0}.routeOptions{0}.optionAttributes.spatialReference.geometry.paths{0}.array{0}.array{1} routes{0}.routeOptions{0}.optionAttributes.spatialReference.geometry.paths{0}.array{0}.array{2} routes{0}.routeOptions{0}.optionAttributes.spatialReference.geometry.paths{0}.array{1}.array{0} routes{0}.routeOptions{0}.optionAttributes.spatialReference.geometry.paths{0}.array{1}.array{1} routes{0}.routeOptions{0}.optionAttributes.spatialReference.geometry.paths{0}.array{1}.array{2} routes{0}.routeOptions{0}.optionAttributes.spatialReference.geometry.paths{0}.array{2}.array{0} routes{0}.routeOptions{0}.optionAttributes.spatialReference.geometry.paths{0}.array{2}.array{1} routes{0}.routeOptions{
Hello everybody,I want to create an Excel file with the FeatureWriter. To get the output well formatted I created a new file before that all as a template file. Well, the FeatureWriter does something I don't want to have. It creates a copy of the template file and creates a new sheet in this copy with the output.. This sheet is exactly that what I want to have but the additional sheets of the copy are disturbing. Is it possible to remove the sheets of the template and just keep the sheet which contains the output?Best regards,Felix
I'm an entry level FME user and I'm struggling trying to transform a file geodatabase to kml. The feature class consists of 67k culvert line features with 38 attributes. Both FME and ArcGIS seem to generate the kml but Google Earth encounter an error whey trying to open it. I thought the tutorial could help me discover what I need to do to fix this.
Can FME read and write features that are in ESRI's SDE.ST_GEOMETRY in an Oracle Spatial database? I have a table that is in ST_GEOMETRY, but the Oracle Spatial reader cannot show it because there is no entry in the user_sdo_geom_metadata table. I don't see an ESRI reader that would be able to read from Oracle. Likewise, when I try to write from a file geodatabase that is in ST_GEOMETRY, FME converts the geometry to SDO_GEOMETRY.Thanks
Hello, I have to read sources that have the same structure in n paths all structured in the same way that I therefore designate to read by ..... dep \\ com ??? \\ shape \\ parcel.shp. ??? Is 001, 002, 003, etc ... No problem for reading. However, I would like the destinations to be written each time in a subdirectory (example: ..... dep \\ com ??? \\ shape \\ l93 \\ parcel.shp. Can you help me ? Thank you.
Hello FME Users,I need to put the color in Attributes Names in my XLS file. I saw the configuration in Output XLS, but it change the color all my columm:The Line 1 is the Attribute Name The Line 2 is the Value.Thanks
Hey Safers,I was wondering if it was possible to position an attribute to an exact row/column position!Using the image below as an example I want to designate an attribute 'LICENSE' to the cell indicated by the red arrow, let's say its at G-5Is there a formula I could use? The spreadsheet can't reference a raw data table as its a fan out of many pipelines in one workbook (a,b,c,d)Thanks,Patrick
Hi All,I am facing an issue while translating data from Oracle Spatial to ESRI Geodatabase. while translating the data using FME workbench getting error message "Unable to drop the table/feature class 'GD_EXPANSION_JOINT_point'. The error number from ArcObjects is: '-2147216072'. The error message from ArcObjects is: {FDO error: -2147216072}". i did google search for this FDO error number but did not find anything. Could anyone help me out in this error.Thanks in advance.Thanks & Regards,Ravi Kumar
Is it possible to read data from $(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA) with the feature reader? In a workspace i write excel datasets to $(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA), I want to read these because they contains attributes which i need to dicede to send a mail (or not) with another job.(The full path to the data is : $(FME_SHAREDRESOURCE_DATA)/Informatie_Management/Vaarwegmeldingen/Meldingen_borden.xls)I use FME server 2015
I currently have a custom Transformer that gets a parameter MaxTileCount (the value of _num_tiles) from a WebMapTiler and it counts the number of features and sends a HTTP message every 10 messages to show progress.That is all working fine.However, now I have issue. The PNGwriter is no longer a PNGRaster writer, but has changed to a FeatureWriter that does a fanout. Well that takes a lot of time, So I want to move the Notifier to later in the pipe, after the "pngWriter (FeatureWriter). The issue I have is that I don't know how to count anymore the number of files written by the FeatureWriter as they are emitted, nor do I have access to _num_tiles which is the total number of tiles coming from the WebMapTiler.In simple words, I want to send a HTTPPost message with count/total as the files are written by the FeatureWriter any idea who to do this?The second notifier fails. So I disabled it.
I'm using FME Desktop 2017.0.1.1. I have a csv file that I need to merge with 6 different csv files. The 6 different csv files are derived from MapInfo table that Intersects with another table and the selection is exported as a csv. I have AttributeManager, AttributeCreater, DateFormater and FeatureMerger for each csv. These csv files are FeatureMerger with another csv and the writer is a 6 sheet excel workbook. When "Translation was SUCCESSFUL with 0 warning(s) (81575 feature(s) output" the excel xlsx file contains errors: "Removed Part: /xl/sharedStrings.xml part with XML error. (Strings) Unexpected end of input. Line 1, column 1614248. Replaced Part: /xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml part with XML error. Unexpected end of input. Line 1, column 1614250.

Hi, I'm trying to insert block in a DWG file with a specified rotation. If I use feature and replace them with a block they all appear with the wrong rotation. Here I set the rotation at 0 for all of these :
I noticed that some users delete their questions, even though answers helpful to other users have been posted. I think it would be better if there were a restriction that a question having answers cannot be deleted unconditionally.
Hi,Can anyone provide some advice as to the most efficient way to explode a huge free text field or fields into all of its character elements retain a single instance of each. I am essentially trying to complete a pre-flight check in order to understand whether there are any ‘odd’ or ‘unexpected’ characters in an ever expanding data set, over which I have no control. I have created a process below which completes the task; however, it is very inefficient and as the number of records increases it will become too slow. 1. Derive string length of free text field 2. clone by number derived in 1 (clone number created in process) 3. substring extract using clone number to obtain character at that position 4. Duplicate remover to create my list. 5. Expose character code. 6. Output listThanks in advance,Rob
While converting from Oracle 11g to 12c, we executed a simple Oracle Non Spatial Workspace that moved 4 million rows from a CSV file to an Oracle table on 12c. It consistently threw the ORA-12592: TNS:bad packet error after running for 30-40 seconds.We ran the same workspace against 11g and it worked fine.After researching the issue we ended up modifying the Oracle 12c Server SQLNET.ora file by adding this parm:SQLNET.SEND_TIMEOUT=600Modifying the client side SQLBET.ORA did not resolve the issue. Modifying the server side SQLNET.ORA file did.

Hello people, i splitted one DXF-File into 4 separeted DXF-Files. One of them i tried to open in ArcGIS, but can not see the features there. Somehow DXF-Files, which were written through FME, could be read only in FME Viewer, but not in ArcGIS. Do you have any ideas, how can i fix it? I tried already all possible format of DXF in FME to write, but still does not work. (the main DXF-File can be open and the features could be seen in ArcGIS as well)
