Hello,

Does anyone know if you can read a .hdr and associated .dat file in FME? This is hyperspectral imagery and I think it is an ENVI format.

I've tried the envi hdr reader but it fails - is it expecting a .bil file not .dat?

Thanks,

Owen

Hi Owen,

Since I have no experiences about the .hdr format, I cannot answer exactly. But according to "FME Readers and Writers", FME supports 2 .hdr formats - Esri .hdr and ENVI .hdr - and also the document says the associated raw data file can have any file extension. How about trying the Esri .hdr reader?

Why not inspect features with Visual/Data Preview and Feature/Record Information before writing them into a destination dataset?
