Data

Hi All,  I tried to sort fields “F1 & F2” of file geodatabase “T1” and each field has a default value, the fields are sorted “F2 then F1” but the default values are not preserved in the result file geodatabase “T2”.       What might be the issue here?   Best, Lubna 

Dear All, I am new to FME and have little experience but I am stuck on the below and hoping somebody will be able to point me in the right direction.Firstly, I have about 14 geo-database datasets that I am running through a clipper (for a particular boundary) and a number of other transformers before writing into an XLS. I want to find out which datasets apply to my area and produce a spreadsheet with multiple tabs, one for each dataset. Secondly I want to know how to select only certain attributes from the applicable layer in the geo-database.I would be greatful for any help offered.Thank you

I am trying to open DXF format file in FME Desktop. But it throws error. I want to open DXF formate file in FME and migrate data into Smalworld.Error Log:"Creating reader for format: Autodesk AutoCAD DWG/DXFTrying to find a DYNAMIC plugin for reader named `ACAD'Loaded module 'ACAD' from file 'C:\\apps\\FME\\plugins/ACAD.dll'FME API version of module 'ACAD' matches current internal version (3.7 20150407)SOURCE_ACAD Reader: Using rich geometry.AutoCAD Reader: Error opening file 'C:/FME WORK/Ganesh/tekirda? s?n?rlar?/tekirda? s?n?rlar?.dxf' during version checkA fatal error has occurred.

Hi All,Present I know only how to configure FME workbench. I want to learn FME full-fledged any one helps me to learn complete FME. I am unable to find correct source for FME materials and Sites.

Hello,I faced with a problem while working with one workspace that I published on FME Server. Job aim is to accept mails with xml files and process them with extraction particular data and putting this data to a database (in my case Oracle). Everything works fine except that after some time job execution begin slow down, miss emails and even stops until you restart FME Server Database and FMEServer. I began to monitor Event logs and found that problems begin estimately after this event "LOG: automatic vacuum of table "fmeserver.public.fme_jobs": could not (re)acquire exclusive lock for truncate scan". If this could be a reason, is it possible to fix this issue? Thanks!

Hi I have the following datasets for an area1. DTM (Digital Terrain Model) 2. DSM (Digital Surface Model) 3. Building footprints Using the DTM and DSM, I would like to find 1) the maximum height of a building footprint2) the areas of all parts of a building footprint which are at different heights (this would give me the area for each floor)Any suggestions? Can this be achieved using FME?

I'm creating KML folders by using KML IDs approch (kml_parent and kml_id). The folders name are in French, so I would like to use characters like : é, è, à... but it doesn't work. I can change the folder name directly in the KML file but I would like to do it directly in FME. Is there a way to do this directly in FME?

Hi everyone, i have two raster files (.GRC, .GRD formats). I need to export these files to Oracle as BLOB. Can anyone please explain how to do this. Thanks in advance.

When filtering CityGML dataset (with AttributeFilter) the Inspector shows different results than Writer outputs. Why?I have cityGML with a lot of buildings, but based on their id I need to filter few of them out. I use AttributeFilter and when I check result in Inspector everything looks like I want it to look, but when I write the output it has lost all geometry and is completely different.

Dear community,I have a hypothesis which states that using the csv module and Python 2.7 to perform a simple processing task using the data stored into a big *.csv is going to have a significant positive impact in the time needed to perform the task in contrast to using  the FME tools to perform the same task. I have assigned both software the following simple task into a "startup python script" in an empty workspace with one published parameter ('OSG_SDTF') which is used to acquire the path of the *.csv to be used in the task.(A) Read a big *.csv file (i.e. 17,977,400 records with the values found in 19 columns which are stored within a single 2 GB comma-delimited *.csv file).(B) Return a set (i.e. not duplicates are allowed) of the values found within one column of the big *.csv ('col0').(C) Print the result into the 'Translation Log' in the FME workbench.The code that I used is following:### USING FME TOOLS ###import fmeobjects, fmedef param_value(parameter_name):    return fme.macr

I know we had to previously make sure FME Server was on the same server as ArcGIS. Is that still the case for new installs on a new server?

Can someone help me with the best process for getting FME 2015 64-bit working with the ArcSDE30 reader?The process outlined in the knowledge base article on this issue (here) is rather cumbersome for a general FME user (one that isn’t also the SDE administrator).The knowledge base article calls for one to install the SDE SDK, however when I search the ESRI site I don’t see where I can get this.The only solution I could find was to download and install the ArcGIS Server for Windows software on my local PC. I was lucky enough that I’m high enough in my organization to have access to the ESRI downloads for their products, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to do this.Does ESRI still make the SDE SDK?If so where is the download for it? Is there a plan to make this more streamlined with FME 2016?I would think that ArcGIS Pro would have the 64-bit DLL’s that FME needs so maybe you all could plug into that instead of requiring this rather hard to find install.

I would like to write a text file and put the information on multiple lines using the CSV writer. I see how to put multiple fields but I cannot find how to put my information on multiple lines.Thanks for your help!

I am facing a problem related to Arabic text visualization in Geodatabase after translation of data from (Oracle10g [Solaries])ArcSDE to geodatabase . Even in source oracle database showing the arabic attributes but after translation it dosn't. In place of real context these are showing string of "¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿"

Hello,I am trying to write an 8bit DEM to a GeoTIFF. The output is supposed to have 2 bands. One gray or UINT8 and the other is an alpha8 band.The problem is that the GeoTIFF writer seems to be refusing the write out the alpha8. It keeps converting to UINT8. When I feed the output from my last transformer (before the writer) into the inspector the output looks exactly as it should and both bands are there. However when I actually inspect the written dataset, the gray8 is there as expected but the alpha8 is converted to UINT8.System:Desktop version is 2015.1. I have also tried this on 2014.Windows 7Any help is greatly appreciated.Nenad K.

Hello, i have a shape file with attributes and i would like to extract a any features but i dont want to use the transformer Tester.

Other than manually specifying coordinates to define a GDB reader's bounding box within workbench, is there a way to use (for example) a polygon to define the bounding box prior to reading so that a workspace can do this automatically and dynamically? I have project areas all across Christchurch, NZ and being able to do this would be very helpful in only reading in select portions of a massive city-wide dataset.Thanks,Chris

how to transform osm shapefiles to 3d cityGML or CAD files

CAT reader works well based on field properties and field boundaries set in Parameters window.I'm facing the following issue:1. I re-access the Parameters (Update Feature Types) and change the field boundaries (e.g. adding new fields with the ruler).2. After Update Feature Types the Feature Type properties / User Attributes (Name, Type, width) are according the changed parameters.3. When running the workspace (no transformers are added, only an Inspector is connected to the reader) , the new fields are shown in the table view of the inspector but without content. Furthermore the content is placed in the fields as before.Does updating CAT feature types need additional parameters I'm not aware of? Or is it a bug(I tried FME 2015.0 and FME 2016 Beta)Thanks for any hintKlaus

I have a workspace the writes to an excel file based off an excel template. The template has all of the rows set to filtered. How can I get the final output to include the filtered rows so I don't have to apply the filter every time I open the generated workbook?

Hi guys,I have a DWG file containing cadastre information. The entities are lines, polylines and arcs. I want to convert this file to a SQL Server spatial table. Before doing that, I inspected the file, and without doing any transformation, some arcs are being offset.Look at the example:In autocadIn FME Inspector:As you can see, there is a gap between line and arc edges. The DWG has no problem in Autocad, but many offsets like that in FME Inspector, without any transformation. The problem only seems to affect arcs.I am using FME Desktop 2015.1. Thank you,Maxime
