Data

Hi,I need to update geospatial data in Geopackage format from a Google Sheet file that contains addresses to geocode that are updated regularly. The process of creating points via geocoding works very well. However, I need to create buffers around points based on an attribute of a field and use the existing Geopackage output file to add the update news. I also have to update the output file of the points in order to add the new entities to the Geopackage file by specifying in my output file the table to update.  Unfortunately, when I run my workspace I get the following error message:OGCGEOPACKAGE writer: Requested feature type 'zone_buffer_300m' does not exist. OGCGEOPACKAGE writer does not have the ability to create new feature types. Create the feature type on the dataset before writingOGCGEOPACKAGE writer: A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details.Attached is a screenshot of the output file con

Hi all,I'm encountering an issue while reading from a PostgreSQL DB and trying to write into a AGOL Feature Service. If I run using the FME Desktop 2021.2, the process run perfectly, reading and writing the Feature Service. When uploading the Workspace into FME Server (FME Server 2021.2.3 Build 21812 - linux-x64), and running it, the message is this one: ""2022-7-15 14:15:44 | ArcGIS Online Feature Service Writer: Feature Service 'xxx_layer' does not support writer mode ''. Its owner may have disabled inserting or editing features. Writes may fail if the current user is not the owner or administrator""Although telling me the correct of the Features were written. From AGOL, I've checked that is ENABLED the edition on features. Also, the FME Server has correctly Authorized. Is there something that I'm not having into ac

Hello,For a job, i need to calculate the volume of a 3D object. The object has curve (its a piping)If I read the data with Revit Reader and calcul the volume, the volume is smaller than in Revit. (more than 1 cube meter)If I export the model in IFC the volume in quantity set in the same as in Revit, but if I I calculate the Volume, it's too smaller than in Revit but it's almost the same.I compared the export IFC and the the Revit file in Data Inspector. The number of facets is bigger in IFC than Revit.My question is : how i can increase the number of facet in the Reader Revit so that the definition of my object is more accurate?thank you for our help

I'm not very advanced in FME and ifc-Conversion. I would like to place an IfcOpeningElement in a IfcWall (and afterwards place a window or door in it). With the excercise "AutoCAD to IFC Conversion Example" I was able to create my walls and openings. But I'm not able connect the two elements. I guess I need to create an IfcRelVoidsElement. But how can I get the corresponding RelatingBuildingElement and RelatedOpeningElement? From the geometries I get the relationship. But how can I link these to correct EXPRESS-ID (eg #23)?  I will add a screenshot from my workbench and the (as txt-File) I get as result.  It would be great if someone can help me! Thank you very much in advanced!  Greetings from Switzerland

Hi,I'am trying to read a schema from an Oracle table through the FeatureReader. This works well for lets say TEMP.TABLE when the connection user is a different name than TEMP. When I connect using a user TEMP I don't get a schema. But after removing TEMP. the FeatureReader returns a schema. This if no problem when I know in advance which user is connecting, but in my case it's all dynamic. We use connection names and the user behind this connection can be the same as where the tables are stored.Is this a bug? Or does anyone have a solution? Thank you,Arno

I'm using a geospatial pdf writer to export a map that was styled with a PDFPageFormatter. The PDF opens correctly in Adobe reader, but not in a webbrowser (Chrome/Firefox). After removing the layer by flattening the pdf (using an online tool or Ghostscript) opening the PDF in a webbrowser is possible. Is there a possibility in FME to flatten the PDF, the PDF-writer always demands a layer name... So writing without creating a layer is impossible.

Hi Community, How can I read / expose the element information from a DGN file? Need to be able to read General > Description as the following screenshot shows:I have already played around with the Reader DGN parameters (e.g. read tag attributes, Read XAttributes, etc) with no success.  Any help would be much appreciated. Thank

I have data in S57 format coming from the UK Hydrographic Office (UKHO) which I need to read into FME.When I try to read them in I get the following error message: DE4OS09G.000 isn't an S-57 data file, or catalog.Failed to obtain any schemas from reader 'S57' from 1 datasets. This may be due to invalid datasets or format accessibility issues due to licensing, dependencies, or module loading. I tried to read them with FME 2022.0.0.2 (20220518 - Build 22343 - WIN64), and as I point out in the question, the access to the files is restricted. There is at least an UPN (User Permit Number) needed to read the data. I do have one, but no possibility in FME to make use of it.

I've got a set of polygons from a PostGis DB and want to write them to DGN. On one level, I've got the polygons and on another level, named label, I want to put out a text string from an attribute. Some of the polygons have more than one entry here, which leads to stacked texts - I've used a centerpoint replacer, labelpointreplacer and dgnstyler. I guess when only having two or three entries, I could solve the problem by subtracting a fixed value from "igds_insertion_y", but I don't know how many entries will be there in advance and already encountered some cases where a polygon had 40 to 50 entries I have to write one below the other.

I am reading some data from a database in, using the DGNStyler I set the color type to color index, define the color index; and set the line style with weight and style.Than I am forcing all data through a 2DForcer and finally I am using a DGNV8 writer to write to disk. I guess the problem starts with me not being used to DGN and/or the viewer, but essentially I am not getting the styles I defined.As you can see, the color index is the same in both viewers, but the color shown differ from each other (The left should be a mirror of the right.). Also, the level weight should be 3, and was also as such defined in the DGNStyler.Overrides have I defined within the writer:but the overrides are en

I would like to know what datasets we use. For this I would like to read the Arcgis Pro project files (.aprx). Does anyone know what encoding is used for this file type?

when I write cesium 3dtiles ，then got a tileset.json 。The boundingVolume of the tile is smaller than the content boundingVolume 。And the geometricError  of the tile almost is same 。

Hi all,We're attempting to use S3Uploader in FME 2015.1.1 and FME 2016.1 to upload data to a bucket in ap-southeast-2 (Sydney), but we're receiving an error from AWS that seems to indicate that FME is not uploading to ap-southeast-2.“The bucket you are attempting to access must be addressed using the specified endpoint. Please send all future requests to this endpoint. (Service: Amazon S3; Status Code: 301; Error Code: PermanentRedirect;”Googling this error results in many bug reports from other software using AWS where they have forgotten to specify an AWS region, and it's defaulted to a different region than where their bucket resides.According to FME's documentation here, our AWS region should be automatically detected."As of build 2015.1.1, all AWS transformers support multiple regions. You don't have to do anything

Hi All, I'm trying to create DWG leaders based on the following post: https://community.safe.com/s/question/0D54Q000080hahzSAA/how-creat-autocadleaderbut couldn't get to work. I use autocad_leader settings as the post suggestsbut the leaders aren't coming through. Could anyone point me in the right direction on how to get the autocad_entity to work? I'm attaching a few screenshots of the workflow as well as the parameters.    

Hi, I am having a problem with FME doing truncates/inserts to an ArcGIS Online hosted layer. Sometimes the number of records in AGOL is 1000 more than FME says it is writing. If I run FME again it is 2000 records too many, 3000 when run again. This is happening in Workbench and Server 2020.2 but does not happen all the time. Features per request in the writer is set to 1000. This has not been a problem writing to other formats and I have other FME services writing to other AGOL layers without issues. Thanks, David

I want to put the 3D pipe on a straight line, the PipeReplacer has thickness, I want to replace it with my own model, is there a good way, thank you，

This is the error I'm getting- ArcGIS Online Feature Service Writer: 'addResults' error for a feature in 'Tracklogs'. The error code from the server was '1000' and the message was: 'Data is Null. This method or property cannot be called on Null values.'.  The data has run successfully through the workspace until I try to write into the existing feature service in ArcGIS Online. As a side note, I made sure to Import Feature Types... The table looks populated to me. There aren't any empty rows, however there are some empty fields. I didn't think this would make the workspace abort though. In the visual preview, I can see the geometry has populated too.  Thank you in advance for your help.

HiI am migrating data from an Oracle Spatial database to PostGIS with FME.One table has a 3D geometry column. The features are read correctly as 3D from Oracle, in the visual preview graphics view the are shown under "3D". In the PostGIS table the features are only 2D, if I query the geometry column as text it contains only POINT(2532341.58213 1155047.32385) geometries.Is there a was to force the writer to write 3D points?Thanks,Jean-Marc
