I have been trying to merge two PointClouds however one of them is clipped version of the building and I wish to pass a component from it to complete PointCloud dataset.  They are unable to be merge and when using only 2 coordinate system it produces DupplicateSupplier. I have tried changing them into individual points however the clipped PointCloud dataset is being <Rejected>. The clipped version of the PointCloud is also slightly shifted from original full building PointCloud. Does anyone know why its yielding DupplicateSupplier and how I can resolve this?

Hey,I'm trying to download photos from ArcGIS Portal. I enabled attachment and use the RasterReplacer. I get an error though. fme_rejection_message (string: UTF-8): @GeometryFormat: Failed to read feature.  The error was: 'An error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details' fme_rejection_code (string: UTF-8): INVALID_FEATURE_CANNOT_READ_BLOBEverything works good on ArcGIS Online. Any idea why? Thanks !

Hi, If using the ESRI ArcGIS Portal (web connection using single sign on) reader. If your password changes on your account does this mean the reader will fail unless you re-authenticate or will no action be required?

I have a workspace on FME Desktop that has a few feature writers. This workspace was built using FME 2020 but we recently upgraded to FME 2021. There weren't any issues running it until I saved the workspace with FME 2021 with no back up.  Basically, it seems that the 'User Attributes' tab disappears in FME 2021's FeatureWriter. For context, the tab is there until I specify that I want to do a filecopy. I've tried many workarounds but it seems like I can't connect the 'source dataset' to the writer no matter what I do, because the previous 'user attributes' that I've built into the workspace no longer exist. My feature reader is also reading a bunch of different attributes, and I need all of these attributes after the FeatureWriters, so using a file copy writer is not a good solution.  Has anyone encountered this problem before, and how do you get the FeatureWriter to work in this case? I keep getting the warnin

i am currently working on a task, extracting geometry from IFC file and point cloud and building solid meshes and compare them getting the differences. but as I use generated point cloud solid meshes and IFC solid meshes from IFCwall IFCdoor IFCwindows and IFC Column. but the geometry is always invalid when i put them in to CSG builder. how can i compare difference of two big geometry and what kind of geometry accept CSG builder ?

hi, how to round values, for example: 5.1 = 6, 7.8 = 8 and so on... Thank´s

I try to make a custom transformer to do linear referencing of point features to a maximum of 10 polylines. Inputs are point features and polyline features with or without measurements. The custom transformer would output a list with the combination _kp{0}.KP, _kp{0}.DCC, _kp{0}.selectedRoute. The KP is the distance along the polyline, DCC is the perpendicular distance to the polyline (negative values on LEFT side of the polyline, positive on the RIGHT side), and selectedRoute name is the name of each polyline. At the end of the custom transformer FME shows the list being created for each feature, but it can not be used in the attributemanager following the custom transformer.

I am feeding all feature services in an ArcGIS Online group into a FeatureReader. I don't know the services or their attributes ahead of time. I can read all the records from these feature services but how do I dynamically expose their attributes? I can see them in an Inspector so they are there. I want to compare each feature service and its attributes with a corresponding feature class and its attributes in an SDE geodatabase.

Hello ,i am struggling with get the relationship between classes .i have Exported xml from arc catalog and I would like to find the relationship between classes .I have used the workspace here https://community.safe.com/s/article/geodatabase-xml-workspace-document-schema-readerlist exploder for data element ,I have chosen relationclasses but it seems for me , it does don’t show all relationship classes with others ( some are missing ) My target to find name of feature class and the feature classes related to it FME 2021 please if someone has sample workspace ,I will be appreciated .Thanks in advance

I'm currently using a CSV reader, Database Joiner and ESRI Geodatabase Writer. The join is working perfectly:  But when I connect the joined output to the geodatabase writer no records are written to the feature class in the file gdb and I get an error saying "Cannot write a non-area feature to an area feature class": I have tried both Drop and Create and Truncate Existing for Table Handling.  Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Hello, I'm trying to convert datetime format with SchemaScanner dynamically but I haven't been able to. I have Oracle tables (thousands) and am trying to migrate the data to Google BigQuery.Since it's nearly impossible to create an individual reader for each table and the corresponding writers, I'm using a dynamic Oracle reader and a dynamic BigQuery writer.In the data migration process, I need to convert datatime from Oracle to a different format so that BigQuery can ingest the data. When I was researching for an automated way to convert the datetime data, I came across the SchemaScanner transformer which in theory can detect datetime columns and convert the format dynamically. I've tried to place a SchemaScanner between a dynamic reader and a dynamic writer but it doesn't seem to do anything.In the "Date Handling" section of the SchemaScanner Parameters, I chose "Co

The ESPG library contains some reprojection methods. Is there an easy way to import a reprojection method from the ESPG library? For example, can you copy the text from https://epsg.io/8450 to create a new reprojection method in FME?

I'm working with some large DTM datasets and am killing my machine with the clients requested settings. I wanted to see if this "Surface Model" file could somehow help me process the data in batch. The documentation looks promising, however, I've not really had much luck when testing it and there are no examples anywhere I can find of how to actually use it properly.

Hello everyone, I am trying to split a text with the attribute splitter. The text is formatted this way : text1 ( number1), text2 ( number2), text 3 (number3)… I want to extract only the value of the numbers to put it in another attribute. Can you help?

I am trying to read in two separate .dwg files, make changes, assign layer names with Feature Writer inputs, and then output to a single .dwg file. But, the data is not combined and it outputs two files from their respective reader instead.My hunch is that the Feature Writer is seeing different schemas coming in, but I can't figure out how to combine. This is one of those "seems easy, what am I missing" issues..I guess?

Hi,I read an Oracle Database with "esri SDE" connection file. I need to update the reader. We now have a new Oracle table that contain a new column and the datatype of that column is "xmltype". With a Oracle Reader or SQLExecutor, I can read the "xmltype" data. But if I read the data with "SDE", the column is not there. Like SDE don't understand "xmltype". Any idea ?

Hi everyone, I have some seismic cross sections that are in bitmap format. I would like to transform them into vertical georeferenced cross sections, something like this (https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/295586/displaying-cross-sections-3d-volumes-in-qgis-3-x), and export them as 3D object if possible (I'm not sure wich format would be suited for that). I can create lines that represent the acquisition lines for those seismic images but I have no idea how to "hang" them vertically below the line. Does anyone has an idea if it's feasible in FME ? Thanks

Hello FME community, I would like to use batch file and FME to create a tool that is able to export an Excel file to a shapefile and transform the coordinate system at the same time.with batch file i get parameters from user. The sheet name and name of the columns can be different for each transformation. when I try to run the process for different file, Sheetname and Column name should be same as previous file and create shapefile without column or empty columns. I need my Read and Writer to automatically recognize new sheetname and Column name   

Hi all. I currently have a workspace that simply downloads some data from a SQL server, puts it threw some geometry checks and then finally uploads the .gdb to an S3 bucket. I would like the final output to be a zip file rather than the .gdb but cannot get it to work. If i change the final output in the S3 connector a zip file is created but it is blank. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is a screenshot of my process: 

I have 2 PointClouds I want to merge their components using PointCloudMerger, however their x,y,z and coord values differ. They both represent scan of same building, but one has been set with global coordinates. I have applied Reprojector/CommonLocalReprojector but their location still differ. How do I change one of the PointCloud x y z values to be same other than forcefully changing it? And if I must change them by force what type are their in (Real64, Uint64, Int64, ...) ? Alternatively, how can I pass the component value from each point to other point cloud through an index method as both Point Cloud have same number of points and should have same index.   

Hello fellow forum members, I am currently facing an installation issue with FME Desktop on my Intel Evo laptop [https://www.lenovo.com/ca/en/faqs/intel-evo/] running Ubuntu 20.04.1, and I am reaching out to seek your valuable insights and assistance.
