I am having issues with glacial speeds of using a delete from statement within a SQLExecutor pointed to Oracle Database. The SQL query is something like:DELETE FROM ABCWHERE ID = @value(id)AND TO_CHAR(DATETIME,’YYYYMMDDHH24’) > @value(timefrom)AND TO_CHAR(DATETIME,’YYYYMMDDHH24’) <= @value(timeto) (note: The query above is paraphrased and might contain syntax-errors, I have checked and confirmed the syntax in the actual version) The Oracle Table contains about 40 million rows, so I expect this to take some time (1-5 minutes per query) but not the >30 minutes for the first query (at which point I gave up, I have not confirmed if the query will ever finish) Currently I am using a workaround of Loading the primary keys of all features that fit the selection criteria and using a writer to DELETE all corresponding records, but this seems unnecessarily inefficient and wast

I have XML file with features I'm trying to read.. that works. Next step is to create a polygon for each feature, I have a string with points that make the polygon. String looks like this:  173363.252 587903.412 173363.369 587902.665 173362.055 587900.798 173363.867 587888.745 173364.007 587887.815 173371.744 587888.843 173368.618 587904.7 173363.252 587903.412 That's a list of x and y coordinates, now I can't figure out a idea to make polygons from it. Any ideas? Do I have to seperate them, create lines and make a polygon from it? Any help is appreciated.   

This is how the initial output from my ftpcaller looks like ( calling a csv to attribute)and this is how it looks like when i sort it by file contents.Any transformer that i use after calling the data uses the first screenshot, thereby inhibiting me from automating any process.I have to download to file, open and save it and then re add it to a second script to manipulate it and push it to AGOL ( which is my end goal)

I would like to convert a json file to csv using a csv writer from a json fragmenter. How do I convert it? The json file is an output that is generated using API tokens. When I run the FME workbench, the translation log is successful. But when I try to inspect the data, I get the below error message. Please look into it and do the needful.  An error has occurred.

Hey guys, I have a fairly large dataset of lines and points. The points need to receive the Z coordinate from the nearest index on the line. Using the CoordinateExtractor followed by a ListExploder isn't an option because that would be too heavy for my workspace. Isn't it possible to use the CoordinateExtractor in a way that in the setting 'Specify coordinate' you only extract the index that is nearest to a point feature? Is there a different way to go about this?

HelloI would like to create 3D objects, I have footprints, DEM, LAS file of building. Roof of the buildings are pretty unique, so It's hard to use Extruder on it, do you have any idea to create 3D objects with unique roof? And then I would like to separate roof and the body. Could you help me?

I have an FME session set up, from shapefile to shapefile with a renamer. My number fields go in as "Long". They are set to come out as "Long". When I pull the output into ArcGIS, the format is "Double" What am I doing wrong?

Hello,I encountered an issue while using the RasterObjectDetectorSamplePreparer to prepare samples for the RasterObjectDetectorModelTrainer. My goal is to detect certain objects based on a digital orthophoto image. I created an annotation.txt file using OpenCV and provided the relative paths to the negative samples directory and the annotation file as inputs to the Sample Preparer transformer. However, when running my workspace, I received the following translation log message:Translation FAILED.The translation was terminated due to the following feature:RasterObjectDetectorSamplePreparer_<Rejected> (TeeFactory): RasterObjectDetectorSamplePreparer_<Rejected>: Termination Message: 'RasterObjectDetectorSamplePreparer output a <Rejected> feature. To continue translation when features are rejected, change 'Workspace Parameters' > Translation > 'Rejected Feature Handling' to 'Continue Translation&#3

Hey Everyone, I hope this message finds you well. I'm currently working on a project involving data center integration, and I've run into a bit of a snag. I'm using FME to handle spatial data transformations, and I'm encountering challenges in seamlessly integrating data from various sources within our data center. Specifically, I'm dealing with issues related to data format conversions, data quality assurance, and ensuring smooth interoperability between different systems within the data center. I believe some of you may have experience with similar scenarios or could provide valuable insights. Here are a few points I'm struggling with:Data Format Conversions: How do you efficiently handle conversions between different data formats within the context of a data center using FME?Quality Assurance: What are your best practices for ensuring data quality as it moves through various stages of th

(This is a spin of question from https://community.safe.com/s/feed/0D5OO000004YH4O0AW, but I thought it made sense to rephrase the question) I am trying to run a shell script from SystemCaller but for some weird reason I can not make it work.  My command line is: cd "/Volumes/disc1/test_systemcaller/" && my_script.sh 25 5The numbers at the end are parameters for the script. The error I get from the log file is:sh: my_script.sh: command not foundThe file 'my_script.sh' is placed in the actual folder, so should be found.If I test the file path by asking it to do something simple, eg mkdir, it will happily do so in the right place.If I run the command from Terminal it works fine.  I made a second script in the folder with a mkdir just for te

My fmw is saved in a directory called C:\\DATA\\VariousTasks. A parameter called InputFolder is pointing to a subfolder of this directory. Is it possible not to use FME MF DIR predefined parameter ? I use a text parameter to point to C:\\DATA\\VariousTasks\\DEV but the script is replacing it automatically by "$(FME_MF_DIR_USERTYPED)DEV" when executing which translates to C:\\DATA\\VariousTasks/DEV . I am using a python script later and python is every sensitive to / and \\ . How can I force FME to use C:\\DATA\\VariousTasks\\DEV instead of $(FME_MF_DIR_USERTYPED)DEV (translating to C:\\DATA\\VariousTasks/DEV) ?

Hello! I would like to create LOD2 buildings, but somehow, my files don't show their own citygml relations between parent_id and gml_id. Could you find me some errors in my workflow? I created gml_parent_id as a field already. eg.)<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><core:CityModel xmlns:brid="http://www.opengis.net/citygml/bridge/2.0" xmlns:tran="http://www.opengis.net/citygml/transportation/2.0" xmlns:frn="http://www.opengis.net/citygml/cityfurniture/2.0" xmlns:wtr="

I have a workspace that takes a spreadsheet that contains these fields: And I've got that reader feeding into a FeatureReader that grabs the Source Dataset feature classes from a specified .gdb.  I would like to dynamically create a new attribute called "_description" and populate it with the values in the Feature Description column. The values that are referenced in the Feature Description column are not exposed, but I can view the values when I click on a feature in the visual preview. I've tried to use an AttributeCreator with the following parameters:However the output looks like the literal string input values, instead of dynamically grabbing the values from the fe

Hello, i used the topologybuilder transformer to build the topology of a network ( roads centrlines). The problem is that z values are not considered while computing intersections. So it may not produce correct results for overpasses, inderpasses....Any recommandations please. Thank you.

I have got this Geometry XML data from HTTPCaller and need to know what is next to convert it to SHP file or other ESRI formats, I tried to find an XML template for geometry and run it with XML Processor and then XMLFragmente, but I didn't get the data.

Hello - I am retrieving value from "date" field using ArcGIS portal services . It seemed to be in this datetime format ( YYYYMMDDHHMMSS like below screenshot) on UTC time. I would like to change this to local time. Please help on how this can be achieved. Tried using datetime converter, but does not seem to work . Thanks,Naveen

I am writing to MSSQL using a dynamic featureWriter. But I can not understand why it fail to write to an existing schema. Warning: Cannot find a matching schema named 'dbo.MyTable' in the known set of schemas: ''. Known schema sources are: 'MSSQL_SPATIAL_1'. Please verify writer feature type configuration Error: Microsoft SQL Server Spatial Writer: A feature has arrived with 'fme_feature_type' of dbo.MyTable, but the feature type is not recognized. Halting translationMSSQL_SPATIAL writer: A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details. The fme_feature_type here is "MyTable". In the writer I use dbo as table Qualifier to match the existing table in my database "dbo.MyTable".What is it I am not getting?

I'm looking at some floating license logs for FME, hoping to build a reporting tool for it. What I've noticed is several cases where one user/machine checks out a number of licences in a short amount of time and check them back in after a while:I assume this is either the user starting multiple instances of one of the FME application on the same machine (or Workbench and Data Inspector) and/or using a WorkspaceRunner. Can anybody confirm that? And more importantly, does every checkout correspond to a checkin? I also assume that as long as there is at least one checkout active for a user/machine that counts as a concurrent license being used, correct?

I have two sets of address data that I'm trying to match up using the CRCDetector as described here https://community.safe.com/s/article/creating-a-unique-identifier-crccalculator. Geometry isn't a concern so there are only the 3 fields to match up but I'm getting different CRC values for things that should be the same.Some of the algorithms will give a handful of matches but no more that a couple of dozen (out of about 12,000). I've checked for trailing white spaces. What else is making it think these things are different? Thanks

I am trying to segment a line dataset at every intersection with a polygon dataset. Instead of breaking the line at the true intersection, the transformer appears to generalize the polygon first, then break the line at resulting intersections. The result is as seen in the image, in this case a dangle of about 7'. (candidate line left to right, original polygon in brown, and Intersector's drawn line from bottom left to top right. Selected blue line should end at polygon boundary.)I've tried LineOnAreaOverlayer, Intersector and Clipper with similar results. I've manipulated the coordinate systems of each dataset and changed their source type with no differences. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!  

Calendar to activate in Arcmap, selecting the date highlights all the objects corresponding to the selected date. Calendar tool to activate on demand.

Pretty simple data export, I have a reader referencing some SDE data and then a writer to a file geodatabase. But reviewing the attributes in the file geodatabase I see that the domain attributes are the codes (1,2.3, etc) not the descriptions (copper, steel, PVC, etc).Is there a way to write the domain descriptions and not codes? The same is true for the subtypes, it is writing the code (1,2,3) and not the description (tap, bend, saddle, etc).

Hi,How can I expose the information that are visible in the Properties/Source tab of feature layer
