Connecting to Smallworld 5 with FME 2022

I am trying to connect to my Smallworld 5 database with FME 2022. I can connect successfully with 2021. I have FME Smallworld edition and have copied the needed connection files to the installation folder. What have changed between the two versions? It says 'This FME edition does not recognize the 'SWORLDSWAF' reader.

Ok people, I have a bit of a stretch question for you.... Can I use FME to track statistical changes in data? More in the details

So I have data from several 100s of pumping stations. In a specific point in time there is a radical decline in what the sum of all pumping stations is delivering (it declines). I need an analysis that can verify if the decline comes from one, or several, of the pumps or if it is due to a "general" decline on all or most of the pumps? Could this be solved in FME? I have 20+ years of data so there should be sufficient amounts for statistical analysis. However, it is more important to be able to dispaly the results (in for instance in a graph) visually than for instance R technical value. Even if both could be of interest. Would appriciate all the input and since I am doing all the data prep in FME it would be great if this issue also could be solved in FME :) Regards

update a (global) variable in a PythonCaller and use it in another PythonCaller

Dear all, I am facing the following issue - sounds very simple : I have a 2-column table that gives a mapping oldname->newname that I store in a dictionnary inside a PythonCaller ; in another PythonCaller, I need to use this dictionary.So far, I am doing the following : 1) in Python Start-up script, I define a global variableglobal mydictmydict = {}2) in the 1st PythonCaller : I populate a dictionary in the `input`function and then in the `close`function , I update the value of the global`all_progs` class FeatureProcessor(object): def __init__(self): tmpdict={} pass def input(self,feature): # do something like : tmpdict['oldname'] = 'newname' def close(self): mydict = tmpdict pass3) in the 2nd PythonCaller I would like to use this dictionary ; but when I try iterating over the dict `mydict` in the 2nd PythonCaller, it looks empty... What am I doing wrong ? How could I pass the values from a PythonCaller to another ? Should I put

How do I concatenate 3 numerical fields into 1 string field?

In Attribute Manager I have created 3 fields (Borough Code, Block_Leading, Lot_Leading), 2 of which have leading zeros in them. I need to concatenate the three fields into a 10 digit string while retaining the leading zeros in the order listed above. My formula for for Block_Leading is @PadLeft(@Value(Block),5,0) and the formula for Lot_Leading is @PadLeft(@Value(Lot),4,0). Can I concatenate all three fields in a single formula in a new field in Attribute Manager and if so how?

Visualizing elevation of flood in Cesium

I want to visualize 2 raster (DEM) the first is for terrain elevation and the second is a dem of a flood. I want to modilise the elevation of the flood compared with the terrain elecation and I want to visulise them in cesium just like I did in Arcscene. Is there a way to that like converting them in 3d tiles or something.

FME Workbench unable to write to Temp folder

Hi all,I seem to have an issue with writing to the Temp folder location (E:\\Temp, in this case). I will get an error like the following -Failed to write feature data to `E:\\temp\\wb-cache-NSPL_V3.2_ShortName-rUhMFp\\Main_FeatureJoiner_20 -1 24 fo 0 JOINED 0 6641bd2679d46e05f371fbb029766a8cafbc270f.ffsupdating' I've tried creating a new workspace from scratch, renaming it and I am able to copy files to that folder without any issue. I also ran FME Workbench with elevated privileges and as a different user, even with a different Temp location but no success with any of them. Has anyone here had anything like this occur? And if so, is there a known way to resolve it? I've deleted all Temp files and again, no change. All a bit odd out of nowhere!Thank you

Using RasterToPolygon Coercer results in Hole Outside of Shell Geometry Error. The Geometry Validator is set to OGC. Attempt to repair results in no repaired geometries.

I’m currently receiving polygon geometry from various consultants, using various methods for deriving the polygons from Raster’s (GeoTiff). As part of our Data Validation process I validate all geometries to OGC Standards. Which, depending on software used, results in different issues, or not.While working through methodologies, to provide consultants with Software Specific guidance, I noticed that when using FME to generate the polygons it results in a Hole Outside of Shell geometry Issue's see Image below. We have only come accross this issue in FME, we have used ArcMap, ArcGIS Pro, QGIS and GDAL/OGR. The ESRI products result in 'Self Intersections', but the ArcGIS Pro 'Repair Geometry' Tool set ot OGR, fixes the issue. Both QGIS and GDAL/OGR are the only tools tested which by default result in OGC Compliant Geometries as outputs.I would like to be in a position to generate OGC compliant outputs from FME, considering we are using FME for our Validation process.I

Importing Python Libraries to FME Cloud

I'm having some trouble when trying to upload Python libraries to FME Cloud and I couldn't find any documentation over it. I have tested that the workspace successfully imports the PyPDF2 python library on my desktop (windows 10). I then followed the directions on the post that is linked below and I am still unable to have the workspace on FME cloud import PyPDF2. I'm still fairly new to Python and haven't had any experience with Linux, so I'm not sure what I might be doing wrong.My stepsCreated a virtual machine with ubuntu (32 bit. No option for 64)Downloaded the source code for PyPDF2 from: https://github.com/mstamy2/PyPDF2Compiled the library on the virtual machine and copied the folder created in the dest-packages folder to FME Cloud folder located at Resources>Engine>Plugins>Python>Python27.

How to clip on raster dataset

Hi, we have some problems during clipping raster datasets!So the black area in the example is successfully clipped. But then as result we have raster clipped by clipper. But FME makes the raster square again and fills the missing pixels black. I can remove these nodata values but then sometime black pixels inside the raster are also deleted not only the black areas on the edge! We want to get only the clipped area without black areas. It does not have to be square.Is this possible?

how to Transpose CSV Data and Add Rows For New Data Pairs

I currently have a dataset, see top half of picture below, that I wish to transform/transpose into the format that can be seen in the bottom half of the image. The blue/green/peach coloured fields are date/measurement. I am totally unsure of where to begin with this, the current transposer tools seem to only be able to do simple transposing without adding the additional rows of location/sourcetype/date/measurement I need. As can be seen I want to make a individual row for each date/measurement combination. I have also attached sample data in xlsx and csv. Any help would be appreciated!

How can I map these properties as attributes within the created feature geometry?

I am currently converting IFC format to Shapefile. So far, I have been successful in importing only the geometric objects. Due to the fact that most properties in the IFC are in separate classes, when they are brought into FME, they remain in their own feature types. How can I map these properties as attributes within the created feature geometry?

Setting Log File location when using ArcGIS Data Interoperability Extension

Hi When working with full Desktop FME it is possible to set where the log file is written to disk through the GUI (or set it to be a parameter), however when working with the ArcGIS Data Interoperability Extension version setting the log file location is not available in the GUI (none of the workspace parameters are). Is it still possible to set where the log file should be written to on disk through a variable or is this functionality removed for a reason? Ideally, I would like to write the log file to sit alongside the data being processed. ArcGIS Desktop 10.5 which uses FME 2016 Many thanks Duncan
