Trying to read Microstation V7 dgn files in FME desktop. How do you add .rsc file so that custom line styles and symbols can also be included?

I need to transform GML to other regarding to new XSD schema. I've got following problem, pointed during oldGML validation by new XSD schema:Element <gmd:CI_ResponsibleParty> is not allowed under element <przedstawiciel>Element <zrodlo> is not allowed at this location under element <GES_BudowlaPodziemna>Further elements required under element <wladajacy>Value 'BrakInformacji' is not allowed for element <bt:lokalnyId>Value 'zasuwa' is not allowed for element <rodzajUrzadz>.Some of them looks simple ("Value ...is not allowed") but changes of schema elements relations seems to bring some difficulties. What is the best practice to handle such GML tranformation? Attribute mapping using XMLTemplater? Constructing XSLT file or something else?

I am extremely new to FME. In my data-set, I have a column that displays number of seconds . I need this to be in a time format.Example: column data displays 181, I need this to read 0:03:01.Any help would be appreciated.

I'm looking to work with some information in Google's Protocol Buffer format, but it appears that FME doesn't naively support it. Short of creating some python/java (and external libraries) to read and convert it to JSON, but I wanted to see if anyone had any experience working with it and FME. I did a quick look around and found this blog post from a few years back describing how they use(d) it for sending messages back and forth in FME Server, but I can't seem to find anything else about it online.Anyone have any experience working with Protocol buffers and/or FME and would have tips on how to best proceed?

Hi there,I have seen two similar posts from 2013, unfortunately none of them had answers back then. Maybe something has changed until now. I have a citygml file and I need to add attributes from energyADE in at least semi-automatic way. My writer already recognizes energyADE, but it doesnt write it correctly. Has anybody ever achieved this right?Right now the most I can achieve is to write few simple attributes to a feature. I use attributeCreator and from thisI get thisNow, eaves height is written wrongly (231 is suppose to be a value, not a unit), but so be it for now. At least its in. I also figured that all xlink_hrefs (energy_construction_orientation{0}.xlink_href) seem to represent a relationship between classes ac

Hi,I have a polygon outline of the a river system with no elevation. Using contour shapefile, I generate a DEM raster, then drape the river polygon to get elevations for each point in the polygon.Problem I have is the data does not match. Occasionally the river edge covers the coastline so there is a slope across the river from one side of the river to its opposing side.Example being, if I stand on one side of the river and look to the other side, whilst being perpindicular, both z values should be the same. However, my results aren't the case.I've tried raster coercer to do some averages of z values and using neighbour finding to assign z values on the polygon, however when the neighbour is 'inbetween' points, it becomes inconsistent.is there a way to get clean centrelines without having the 'spider' legs along the way? Is there a way to draw perpendicular lines at each point of the polygon? Then I can use it to cut

Hi all,Ia m facing problems in creating workbench in FME. I am need to know the clear process for creating fme workbench for DXF file data.What are my possible solutions?Please find the attachments for clear idea about my question. I am attaching same data for your refer. Any one create sample workbench for my sample data. Sampledata and explanation document palce in same folder.Thanks in advance for your help.

hi,I want to import DXF data into Smallworld by using FME. I have bellow doubts in exporting. When i try to add reader in "Reader Gallery"i found 5 type of "*,dxf,.dwg" formats.First i try to select "Esri Mapping Specification for CAD(MSC)" data in DXF file not visible. After that i tried with "Autodesk AutoCAD DWG/DXF" it displays layers from DXF source file but fields are not visible in work bench.I checked the dxf file in ESRI they have fields and values. But in FME those values are not populated in workbench for mapping."Layer,Color,Linetype,Elevation,LineWt,RefName,Angle&quot

Hi,I have CityGML buildings (LOD2). The footprint needs to be replaced with a more accurate one. With replacing the footprint the walls need to be re-created. I need to keep existing roofs.Can anyone help me? Any suggestions/tipps how to achieve this?I'm not overly familiar with FME,Thank you, Robert

Hi there,    I'm definitely not new to FME, but I am new to this community, so hi there!  I have a question concerning CityGML.    I'm trying to convert data from an Oracle Spatial database to the CityGML format. I followed an example from FMEpedia which I modified for my own purposes. Now everything works quite well, as long as it is 'by the book'.  However, I need to write some extra attributes that are part of a custom Application Domain Extension (ADE).   I have a valid XSD that defines the extension attributes, but what should I do next?  How can I ensure that FME exposes the custom ADE attributes in the CityGML writer, so I can map my Oracle data to it?     I have been playing around with the writer settings (as described in http://docs.safe.com/fme/reader_writerPDF/citygml.pdf) but until now without any

Hi, I am writing tags to Microstation V8 DGNs. I want to set the tag colour and font style, but when reading the below article it seems that those attributes cannot be set when writing to tags. http://docs.safe.com/fme/2016.0/html/FME_Desktop_D...Do I use a DGN styler instead?Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks

HiI am writing to tags in Microstation v8 however, whenever I display the tags they are not showing up at the origin of the line. I think this is because the line is a complex chain rather than a line string within Microstation. Does anyone know how to ensure the tags are displayed at the origin of the complex chain?Thanks

Im having problems to list tables when using postgis reader, but if i list them with postgresql readers it fetches all tables from any of my schemas.The listing is inside schemas and there are both geometric tables and non geometric ones. It is able to fetch the existent schemas in database but not the the tables inside the schemas.In Qgis i can load and see all my tables.Any clues or ideas @paulatsafe

Hi guys,I transform a CSV file to excel inside an FME workbench to calculate some statistics. Everything goes smoothly, the only problem is that when writing to Excel, all numbers (decimal numbers mostly), are stored as text.Is this a known problem, or does somebody have an idea how to have numbers in excel that are stored as numbers?Thanks,Maxime

Hi,I have been asked to combine cells and tags in a Microstation V8 DGN file into a 'Graphic Group'. Does anyone know if this is possible in FME?Thanks,

Hi,I am using FME for migrating ESRI shape file data into Smallworld.I want to assigned Networktype based on Voltage field.I want give network-type based on Voltage value Ïf voltage is "386.00KV,154.00KV" NetworkType is HV,If Voltage 36KV, 15.8KV, 6.3KV then networkType is LV.How can i give this in FME using transformers.Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi I am trying to create GML via the XML Templater transformer - but I am a bit stuck when it comes to creating nested attributes in the resulting GML .I have data stored in a postgresql table where two columns "changedate" & "reasonforchange" are currently stored as array types e.g. - changedate  character varying[]  reasonforchange character varying[]{1995-12-18,1995-12-19}{Reclassified,Attributes}Displayed below is an example of the what the desired output GML should look like: <osgb:changeHistory>             <osgb:changeDate>1995-12-18</osgb:changeDate>             <osgb:reasonForChange>Reclassified</osgb:reasonForChange></osgb:changeHistory><osgb:changeHistory>             <osgb:changeDate>1995-12-19</osgb:changeDate>             <osgb:reasonForChange>Attributes</osgb:reasonForChange></osg

Dear Support Team,I have FME Fixed Node licence for my permanent use ("fme_licence.fmelic"). I want to use this ".fmelic"in my machine. Actually when i try to use my FME it shows bellow screen. After that i got licence from safe. But i want to use it for my product.Can any one tell me how to configure this file in machine.Please advise if I am missing something. Or how would I resolve this issue.   Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi,I have bigger guestion about working in fme with 3D geometry. I made buildings from pointcloud from certain city with different program. Everything went fine buildings look good and there is textures from aerial photos. But now I would need to make buildings file sizes smaller for game engine. There is most likely other programs to do this, but was thinking if I could make fme work with these files? What makes files so big is amount of polygons and ofcourse amount of textures on these every polygon.Goes maybe little hard way, but how I could make buildings smoother and still keep their textures?I know in sketchup there is own tool for this, so why it wouldn't be possible for fme? :)And yea.. There is about 1700 buildings to make smoother or just get their filesize smaller somehow. So Im trying to make fme work with all these buildings in one workbench.I have buildings in .skp and .dae formats for now.

I followed a suggestion from another post from 2013 which said to use only a period on the file extension type parameter. However when I do this the output file from the zip folder looks like this: `filename..`. If I set the extension type to nothing I get `filename.csv'. Is there a way to have it output just 'filename'? This is FME Server 2015.1

I was wondering is it possible to add multiple screen overlays to a kmz file?Thanks.

Hi All, I'm trying to load S57 data with FME but have a few questions:  - FME Insists that catalogs have the .030 extension. However all the Hydrographic offices we deal with provide a file called CATALOG.031 instead. Even renaming the extension FME refuses to read it. How do you read the catalog file? Apparently since S57 Edition 3.1 (dated 2000), it's always been .031.  - FME only seems willing to read the .000 file for datasets. This works fine. However we have other extensions as well (such as .001, .002 and upward). FME struggles read to read these and shows no geometry. As I understand it these are "updates" to the given chart. How does FME handle these?  (Using FME 2014 SP3).  Thanks.

Hi!I am reading OSM data in the .osm format and trying to write out selected key-value pairs based on the key name. The key value pairs are in two lists: tag().k and tag(),v. I would like to extract all the keys which equal "name" from tag().k and write the associated values from tag().v to a name attribute.I am having difficulty figuring out the best (or any) way to do this. I would like to accomplish this task just using the existing transformers if possible.Thank you!

I am trying to output a directory structure like so:/metadata.csv/version.txt  /Dir1/    /FileA.txtWhen I publish to the Server and run as a Data Download job, the file structure in the resulting .zip looks like this:/dataset/metadata.csv/version.txt  /Dir1/  /FileA.txtI have specified the $FME_SERVER_DEST_DIR=\I have set the metadata.csv writer folder to link to $FME_SERVER_DEST_DIRHow do I have to configure this so that metadata.csv writes to the top level directory without creating a subfolder for itself?

Hi FME'ler,I need some help with DWG and its blocks in 3D.InputDWG-file with a lot of blocks showing points, their name and their elevation as labels from attributes. Everything is in 3D. When reading this file into FME Inspector I can see the attributes having z-values.FME transformationIn FME I had to offset the blocks slightly in direction of xy. The elevation should remain. When inspecting the results before writing, I can see the z-values. Everything looks good.OutputWhen inspecting the output in FME Inspector (and AutoCAD) the block's points are at the correct position (with elevation), but their labels are on the ground (0). Does anyone know how the elevation of the attributes behave?! I already tried to set these values directly in FME, but the writer ignores(?) them.Thanks in advance!Maria
