FME Form

Using two files: a PDF with no geodata, and a georeferenced polygon. They cover the exact same area (bounding box of PDF = polygon). The polygon and the PDF were originally created in the same coordinate system. There should be no need for "warping". Its just only the georeferenced coordinates in the PDF that are missing.  Q: How do I georeference the PDF using the polygon? 

Hello,I have an editable view in PostGIS (PostgreSQL) and I'm trying to write in it with FME.For that, I've:Added my view from a PostGIS reader (to have its structure - and confirm it exists)Duplicated this view in a new PostGIS writer (to keep its structure)Set the table handling as `Use existing`Connected a worflow to end in my viewBut when I run the workspace, I'm facing this error:POSTGIS Writer: Table 'xxx.yyy' does not exist. Please check the Table Name specified, or modify the Table Handling value under Format ParametersSo my question is: is it possible to write in an editable view?For the record, I can write in my view with another client (QGIS) with the same credentials.Thanks for any input.Rémi

Hi there,I don’t see the forest for the trees 🤔Input dataXML excerpt (source https://ifc43-docs.standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4x3/HTML/annex-a-xsd.html):<?xml version='1.0' encoding='ASCII'?><xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:ifc="https://standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4/3/DEV/9d19c824" targetNamespace="https://standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4/3/DEV/9d19c824" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified"> <xs:element name="uos" type="ifc:uos" abstract="true"/> <xs:simpleType name="Seq-anyURI"> <xs:list itemType="xs:anyURI"/> </xs:simpleType> <xs:complexType name="uos" abst

I’ve tried searching for answers to this but I’m sure I must be using the wrong search terms as I get close matches but nothing that has pointed me in quite the right direction yet. I’m hopefully that someone can help me understand how to expand the following JSON fragment into a set of features, where each feature contains the same initial set of fields, but only contains one of the final array entries.Here’s an edited example of the JSON I’m dealing with and how I’d like the out to look. {"UPRN":"12345678","CaseNo":"15/01234/ABCDE","Address":"16 Some Rd Surrey SM1 1AA","Name":"Miss T Mountain","DocumentID":["7654321","7654322","7654323"]}I’m trying to extract this into 3 features, each of which includes the uprn, CaseNo, address, name and a DocumentID. I’ve been able to extract the whole array of documentIDs but haven’t figured out how to extract each one in turn and pair it up with the remaining information.

Although the Python can connect with the information provide, the FME tries to connect but is not able to. This is simply downloading a text file from the site once the connection is made and storing the text file locally.The goal is to modify the process that currently uses three software packages into one FME solution. Details on the HTTPCaller in the attachment

I have upgraded FME Workbench to FME:FORM  FME(R) 2023.0.1.0 (20230630 - Build 23332 - WIN64) In the previous version, when I wanted to review the written data in a file I simply clicked on the icon to View Written Data and the data would load in the preview window,However, since I upgraded to FME:FORM, every time I want to review the written data in a table, I have fo go through the following steps, even when the qualified table name is already present.  I have done this, saved the workbench and come back and still had to follow the below steps.  In fact, if I go to another area in the workbench and try to review written data I have to repeat these steps.  Is this a bug or a feature.Click on the View Written Data icon Select Dataset to ViewClick on Parameters buttonUnder Constraints specifiy the tabke from a dropdown (even if the qualified table is already listed) 

Hi,I’ve been working on a pretty large export workbench.The subject is related to real estate. We’ve got a relational database and we drill into about 20 external layers to get some info and to filter our own data.The workbench has grown a lot over time and now it’s really hard to maintain or yet expand. I’m afraid it might break anywhere.Are there best practices on how to go about many processing jobs ?Is it sometimes best to split a workbench into several separate workbenches ? If yes, how to structure the processing parts ?Where to start the cleaning up chore ?

I have a database table in which a number of the records are duplicated. I'd like to remove the duplicates but like to keep 1 record (so similar to the duplicateFilter unique port).I have no unique identifier in the table so if I match a record (based on a combination of attributes) I'll remove all of them from the table, I need to add 1 of them again afterwards.  Currently I use the following approach:duplicateFilter to find the duplicatesremove the records from the table using fme_db_operation = DELETE (this re re-insert the unduplicated record Any suggestions to improve this methodology?

Hello! I would like to convert a IFC building into a CityGML building, I created all the components of buildings(wall, floor, roof, etc.). But I don’t know how to merge all these components into one CityGML building. I would like to create a building with appropriate CityGML hierarchy. Could you help me?  

Hi,I have a multipatch containing buildings in a file based geodatabase (.gdb). I want to be able to replace the geometries and attributes of certain buildings by updating them with buildings from another multipatch based on a unique ID. This is successful but when I load the multipatch into ArcGIS Pro the updated buildings appear grey instead of white. I don't think it is a problem with the appearence stored within the multipatch (I have tried GeometryColorSetter) but rather that ArcGIS Pro doesn't recognize the difference between walls and roofs in the objects written by FME.  When lighting is not enabled all objects appear white  When I enable lighting the object in the middle (written by FME) has grey roof instead of grey walls (shadow) and a white roof as the other buildings have.  

I have a land cover raster with values that can be seen in ArcGIS Pro when looking at the raster's attribute table. When bringing this raster into FME using the "Esri Geodatabase (File Geodb Raster Dataset)" Reader, the raster is brought in with no attribute values (see screenshot). Looking for help with bringing the raster into FME so that the attribute records will be populated with the raster's values shown in the ArcGIS attribute table? A smaller example raster that was clipped from the larger raster can be found at http://robot.konturlabs.com/temp/rasters_temp.gdb.zip Thanks!

Is it possible to define the mandatory nature of a user parameter according to the value entered for another parameter?For example, if the first parameter is checked, then the second must be filled in. Otherwise, the second parameter is not mandatory.Thanks for your help

I have made the same project for 3 years the same way and I’m running into an issue now. I’m using the AGOL Feature Service Reader to read a feature layer that’s hosted on AGOL. I’m attempting to read the attribute table and filter/edit some data from the different features using tester and attributemanager, the goal is to eventually write the data out to excel spreadsheets.  The problem is that it doesn’t have any of the updates made were made on ArcGIS Online/ArcGIS Pro. I have inspectors that are editing the feature layer and myself with ArcGIS Pro via Portal. I can see the changes made online and in ArcGIS Pro when I view the attribute tables, however when I read the data in FME it only has the original state when the data was first uploaded to AGOL.  I have made sure that editing is enabled in the Settings of the Feature Layer. I’ve attempted to re-authenticate my AGOL credentials within FME and I’ve reviewed the source data path multip

Hi All,  I’m working on a workflow to export the photos (as .jpeg) collected with the Fulcrum app in the filed for a bridge inspection. I have been able to install the Fulcrum Web Connector from the FME hub here and make the relevant connection through a Token. Also I have put together the following workflow to read and extract the photos but for some reason when I paste the URL photo in my browser says ‘This page isn’t working’. I expected to view and download the photo through the API / URL (picture).Here is the workflow created so far:  I think am not too far off to get this working but would need some advise if am doing something wrong as can’t view

I have the FME 2021 Workbench version. I have an API protected by an SSL certificate (.crt, .csr, .key, and .p12). How do I read my .p12 certificate and connect it to my API https://**** in FME? Is it possible in HTTPCaller?In my directory C:\Program Files\OpenSSL-Win64\bin\partner_key, I have my four files, the .crt, the .csr, the .key, and the .p12 (with a password for the .p12 file). On the other hand, I have my API https://api-pp-iop.******.com/******/******. I want to extract all the data from this API. It won't work if I can't associate the .p12 certificate with it.

Dears, we have recently upgraded fme server windows machine to 2022. Post that character encoding default changed from Ansii to UTF8 because of this files generated by our workspace having special french characters causing issue for interface systems. Earlier with ansii encoding format they were able to read files with out issue. Im not able to find how can i change to Ansii encoding fo rthe files generated by our workspace. As of now im opening the file in notpad and saving in ansii and then sending to them as a work around. Pleas ehelp me ot automate this utf to ansii conversion. Thanks

Hi everyone, I have finished a FME Workbench and I wish to share it throughout my organization via an ArcGIS Pro Tool (Spatial ETL Tool). To create an ESRI Spatial ETL Tool, I followed this tutorial (Create an Esri spatial ETL tool—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation) and this specific section: “Reference an existing FMW file to an ETL toolbox”.Through the user tool interface (as in the Geoprocessing pane), I would like for a user to be able to:-         Define the output file name and the path where the file location.==> Those two parameters work.-         Select the unique input file in a Geotiff format (extension *.tiff)==> Doesn’t work

I have 100 items of data, which are grouped together in various sub groups using a field 'groupNo',I want to process each set of groupNos individually, I need to select a group, and do the following processes for each individual group: Take one item with status 'original' which has data and duplicate that data to the 'new' items in that group. How would I do this using the groupNo identifier? An example input output data set: Input:OID, Status, Data, Group1, Original, XYZ, 12, New, <null>, 13, Original, ABC, 24, New, <null>, 25, New, <null>, 2 Output:OID, Status, Data, Group1, Original, XYZ, 12, New, XYZ, 13, Original, ABC, 24, New, ABC, 25, New, ABC, 2  

Hello, I’ve run into a strange issue. I am accessing a polygon feature class via a SDE connection. Whenever I add the reader it does not appear on the workbench, it does appear in the navigator panel, but not on the actual main workbench menu, where the workbench is visually developed.item appears in navigator panel, but no where else. I can run other readers from other .sde connections but there is something wrong with this one. I can access/read the data via the same SDE connection via ArcPro. 

Hi guy’s A workbench that worked before gives me some crazy errors that’s driving me nuts.I used the workbench before and it worked normally.  It has to write some geotif tiles with deflate compression. No matter what I do, I always get errors about me using jpeg compression. I tried everything. Clearing cache, deleting cache manually, restarting pc, copying everything in new FME file, updating all the transformers, making a new wb, try running it on another pc with more recent version of FME... I had a similar question in the past and than the solution was to use a bulkattributeremover with ‘geotif_’. This doesn’t work either. This is the wb, it’s just shapefiles and geotifs as import: Any one with ideas?

I’m looking to determine the number of line segments (green) to the end of a network branch (road network) from a given point in the network (red dot).Ultimately, I want to do this to be able to determine if a network branch is a dead-end up to a certain threshold of number of road segments (i.e. 30 segments, but would not consider 5000 to be a dead-end...threshold to be determined)I feel like using the StreamOrderCalculator to determine the Strahler Order is almost what I want except that loops may be present (as shown in teal) which removes that option.I’ve tried various things with the Stream and Network transformers, but can’t seem to figure it out.I’ve also tried with a PythonCaller, but I really struggle to translate a Python solution on dummy values to one that actually uses features and their geometry.
