Great piece, XML Filter Expressions can be challenging.

 

Since ChatGPT this has become a lot easier. maybe this is the more efficient way to go? (Safe implementing AI assist.)

Hi Niels,

 

thank you for your feedback!

Yes, an assistant would be really helpful.

 

But I'm not sure if ChatGPT would be necessary.

I assume, that it will use this amongst others

https://www.mapserver.org/ogc/filter_encoding.html

 

But AI is not really necessary.

FME knows anything which is necessary to feed an assistant only by sending 2 requests to the WFS in question:

- GetCapabilities

- GetFeature

 

I've an idea im my mind.

I will write it down and place an idea.

 

Best regards

 

Oliver

Thanks for sharing this @oliver! I recently dove into XML filter expressions because a client asked for it and was frustrated about the lack of documentation, but this really helps a lot!
