Hello Everyone,   I have a polygon-feature Geodatabase that I need to be converted into an ESRI GRID feature with 30m x 30m cell resolution. I really don't need to transfer any cell values. I’ve tried using the suggestions at this Knowledge Center article “Converting Vector data to Raster” https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/1099/converting-vector-data-to-raster.html but to no avail.   Currently I’ve tried the AttributeCreator/ImageRasterizer/RasterBandSeparator transformer process and then tried writing the result with a ESRI ASCII GRID Writer but the process fails with an error message stating that the output cannot be written to a raster because of an invalid format.   Thanks for any assistance,   Cheers,   - Craig

I am reading many features in a database, putting them through a 'spatialfilter'. All features that don't intersect are to be sent to the 'emailer'. How can i group a single attribute from many features as plain text so i can add this list to the 'emailer' body?

We have geoereferenced tiff files which we would like to integrate with some existing dwg'sHow to do it?

Hi !I would like to know if it's possible to transfert LAS files to Landxml ?Just like XML files are exported from a surface in Autocad.The purpose of this transformer is to load LandXML surface into Autocad Infrasworks as a Terrain so i can drape Buildings/Roads/City Furniture/Streams on it. Let me know if you think it's possible.Best regards

I have to convert these lat/lng to geom data type, such these lat/lng are in space (here I have done wrong), Kindly guide how I can convert them (lat,lng) to geometry such that they occur in space. Thank you

Hi,I'm merging a DGN file with excel table writing into a SHP (feature type definition 'import from Dataset' - I used a template given to me)The excel table contains date, I've used DateFormater- DestinationDateFormat: %d"/"%m"/"%Y, it looks like it should work and it is working when I run the workspace redirected for FME Data Inspector, dated are coming up perfect, fields with no no date have <missing> instead.When I view the SHP in Data Inspector as to 'open a dataset in a new view' dates are missing as they are missing when I view in in ArcGIS.How to make it the date viable?I've tried the FeatureWriter, dynamic properties and used the template .shp a s schema definition, that doesn't work either.Would anybody have any idea why the date is so difficult to write into a SHP? I use FME Desktop 2016.1.3.Would the proper XML workspace exported from GDB help? There is a .shp.xml given to me within the shapefile template anyway.Kamil

HiI'm having a problem reading and then writing shapefile into MS SQL database. Shapefile contains multiple polygons (and multi polygons), but apparently there are few with only single pair of LAT / LON coordinates. These are rejected and not written. Is there a way how to write them anyway?Thanks,

Hello everyone,after creating a few excel files in my workbench I wanted to sum them up in a pdf file. I used the FeatureWriter to create the Excel files. After each FeatureWriter I inserted a PDFPageFormatter which I connected to a normal Writer for the PDF. What happens is nothing. The Excel files and the PDF file has been created but the pages in the pdf are empty. I'd be thankful for hints.Best regards,Felix

I have a Microstation DGN file, and inside it is an imported raster (not a referenced raster file). In FME this raster image is coming through as a nongeometric collection. How Do I go about extracting the raster file from the DGN so I can use it as a raster image? I have tried using the geometry filter, but since fme reads the raster as a nongeometric collection it thinks there is no geometry instead of filtering it through the raster port. Are there certain attributes that need to be set on the raster image in Microstation in order for fme to register it as a raster?

Hi all, I am trying to create a workbench that will read/download 52 individual URLs and write them as 52 individual feature classes in a file geodatabase as well as 52 individual dwgs both using part of the original URL as the file name and for the file geodatabase as an attribute under the feature class. I will hopefully have this run monthly as a batch file.I have a list of 52 URLs that are stored in a spreadsheet (example of a few attached). Each URL is a download link for a .zip file that contains an individual GML file. I can pass the URLs successfully to my HTTPCaller which saves the response body to file. An example of the original URL called is this below:http://data.inspire.landregistry.gov.uk/Kensington_and_Chelsea.zipWhereas the response file that is saved is called 'http_download_1497369123968_8888.zip'I need to have a way to transfer the actual URL name from the spreadsheet so that it can be an attribute of my output. I'm not sure how to do this?Below is a

Hello, I have one question regarding conversion 3D city from SHAPEFILE to CityGML.I have more classes of objects (vegetation, cityfurniture, buildings, ...). I would like to ask how can I follow the structure of creating _AbstractClasses in FME workspace? How can I create abstract features and use them as gml_parent_id in those features which are in the hierarchy down below? Thank You Michal

Hi, I have some trouble when I want export the custom properties of a Revit file. After exporting in rvz with the "Export Revit property sets" checked, I can see them when I open it in the inspector, but I can't access them in the workbench, or export the properties in a csv (with the ID I could reaggregate the data).Could you help me ?

Hi,Does anyone know why FME server is unable to handle an SDE connection file with OS authentication? I have several FME desktop workspaces using OS Authentication and I publish it to FME server and run my FME Job Submitter service. I also have the conection file uploaded, but somehow during translation it fails to utilize/recognise the SDE connection which is setup with OS Authentication. On the other hand, the windows server where FME Server is installed has ArcGIS Desktop installed too and I am able to connect to the database using the OS authentication SDE connection file.

I want to translat CityGML>IFC and i get this Error, at the end i cant get any geometry.

I successfully read autocad_insunits (Format Attribute) for any given DWG (In Autocad, this is the INSUNITS setting). Is it also possible to determine the DWGUNITS setting for any given DWG? I believe that I have tried all of the Format Attributes, with the word unit in the string, in FME 20160516 - Build 16494 - WIN64.Thanks.

We want to export a DGN V7 file to v8 version with some specifications. For example: In version 7 we have grouped some elements in the same level, but with different colors and styles. The objective would be to be able to make different selections of level, style and color and in the reader environment, and export that selection to a specific level in the output file v8. How can we do this? thanks for your help

Hi, is it possible to convert HTML page to jpg file.Thank you, cheers.

Good morning.I have the XML file of an ATOM feed. That XML has to be updated every time the resources provided by that service are updated. Several dates must be changed.My first approach is read the XML with the XML reader, calculate the current data, modify the XML using the XMLTemplater and wirting the same XML file using the Text File reader (with "Overwrite" set to YES)..The process reads the C:/ATOM_feed.xml, edits it and writes the file C:/ATOM_feed.xml.This doesn't work:"Error opening dataset 'Text File' for writing, ensure that file path and permissions allow for writing".I guess it makes sense.So, in order to avoid this, I have used "Creator" to create a feature with an attribute "join" set to "A". I have added the same attribute to the feed from the XML Reader and I have perfomed a Merge using "FeatureMerger" (Requestor = new feature, Supplier = XML). That way I can read and write the same XML file. The

Hi all,  This might be completely in the world of fantasy! I've programmed FME to produce a MapInfo table (using MFAL writer) containing points at 25m intervals along road centres (using Ordnance Survey's ITN data), each point contains a URL including Long/Lat coordinates so that I can invoke Google Street View.  In MapInfo, I need to add the Hotlinking capability after FME so that the URLs can be read and linked to. I've looked at the tab header file (in Notepad) and it seems to need a few lines of code at the bottom of it. I was thinking, could I program FME to add this automatically? Has anyone thought about this before? Perhaps this is beyond the use of FME. The closest way I could think of would be to create a text file and write the specific text to it then replace the actual .tab file component in Windows Explorer but it wouldn't be a tidy process.  Regards,  Ian

Hello,I am evaluating FME for a project but have hit a hurdle trying to write to a MongoDB database. I have put together a very simple workspace that reads data from an Excel file and dumps it into MongoDB. When I run it, I get the following error:MONGODB writer: Existing feature type 'rawData' does not contain an attribute matching the schema attribute 'customerId'. Attributes named 'customerId' on incoming features will not be written to the existing feature typeI get the same error for each attribute that I have defined. The writer succeeds in creating the collection and populating it with documents, but all the documents only have the '_id' field set.On the writer, I've set Attribute Definition to Automatic and also given the collection name under the General tab. Otherwise I've left the defaults.Am I missing something?,Hello,I am evaluating FME for a project and put together a simple workspace that pulls data from an Excel spreadsheet and d
