Hi i have 3d buildings LOD 2.3 (roofs and stufff) stored as open data multipatch shapefile real 3d geometry.

I think this “

Feature type 'd_y_n_point' has unrecognized geometry type 'fme_no_map', defaulting to cesium_3d_object

“

And then in map “deck: initialization of ScenegraphLayer({id: '3d-buildings-tiles1-scenegraph-https://gis.pcr.cz/vector/tileset2/data/data298.b3dm'}): size: 1 Error: size: 1

So geometry output is completle broken.

When im trying to convert this data using FME geometry is always broken on cesium ION.

When i use QGIS to export model to glft data a then using cesium works almost fine but i loose spatial coordinates.

So i would rather use FME to have proper 3d tiles. I have atributes and id of building segments and also id of the building so i can tell which parts are 1 building. But FME has issues with the geometry in multipatch. There are only surfaces.

      Hi ​@jan.mares,

      Thank you for posting your question on the FME Community!

      The fme_no_map warning is likely the culprit here. Perhaps the geometry isn't being mapped to a type the Cesium writer can work with directly.

      This article on writing Cesium 3D Tiles with FME may help, though it may not match your exact use case: https://support.safe.com/hc/en-us/articles/25407485871373-Writing-Cesium-3D-Tiles-with-FME

      I'd suggest checking your writer configuration against it, as it covers the expected setup and common pitfalls. Let us know if anything stands out or if you're still running into issues!

      Thank you for your reply. I have seen the article, but its not gonna work in this case, extruding building is easy i dont need 3d tiles for that. But i have real 3d geometry with roofs, walls and this kind of stuff. Article is about 2D polygons with height attribute.

      Hi ​@jan.mares,

      Thank you for the follow up. In that case, I would recommend that you submit a ticket so that our support team can look into this further.

      When submitting your ticket, please provide the following (if available):

      • Any relevant log files (e.g. translation logs, job logs, fmeserver.log, etc.)
      • Please provide a sample of the source data used in your workspace
      • The workspace (or sample workspace) that you are encountering issues with. If, possible please send this as a template (.fmwt).

      Thanks for your patience while we work through this!
