asked in Data

I've looked at many posts, but still don't see this answer. I have a Geodatabase that should be in EPSG:4326, but when I use Coordinate Extractor to try to derive the lat/long, I get numbers with 7 places to the left of the decimal point.

I've tried Attribute Reprojector, but that doesn't seem to help. I just need the lat/long.

Single quote (apostrophe) in published parameter when submitting a job through FME REST

We have a workspace on FME server (2021.2.6) with a published parameter ProjectName.We're submitting jobs through the REST enpoint, using json for the parameters.Now we have a project name with an single quote (apostrophe), like:A'damThis results in a code 400 - bad request. So, what is the correct way to send this string in the json? What we have tried:A%27damThis works, but then we need to decode the string in workbench.A\'damThis works, but server interprets this as as a double quote.A"damWe also tried to replicate this in submitting a job from the fme server interface but then the parameters are sent as form data, not as json...

FME Desktop (2022.1.0.0 (20220704 - Build 22618 - WIN64) hangs after changing anything in AttributeManager

My workspace isn't complex yet if I make a small change inside and AttributeManager, FME Desktop hangs for a good minute. The CPU does spike while it hangs.Has anyone else run into this issue before? This is a clean install on a beast of a machine so I shouldn't think its resource related.

Hi, I'm new to FME. I have created a basic workspace using the Esri ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Reader and are having issues with authentication.

When I select NTLM the workspace successfully runs on FME Desktop and FME Server with all features read as expected. When I select Kerberos, the workspace successfully runs on FME Desktop but not FME Server. The following error is observed in FME Server: “ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Reader: Using authentication ‘Kerberos’ ”“ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Reader: Logging into ‘https://<my ArcGIS Portal host>/portal/’ as user ' ' ”"ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Reader: Could not log into https://<my ArcGIS Portal host>/portal/sharing/rest/generateToken as user ' '. Check your credentials and try again. The error code from the server was '400' and the message was: 'Unable to generate token. 'username' must be specified, 'password' must be specified." Ideally we would like to use a more secure authentication method than NTLM. ArcGIS Portal is not currently setup to use OAuth and I’ve attempted to use the other authenticati

I am trying to terminate a process after using a Change Detector if the number of features that are unchanged is below a threshold. What is the order of operation for fme_db_operations when sending the results to a writer?

What is the order of operation for fme_db_operations when sending the results to a writer? If I have a feature counter attached to the Unchanged Port of the Change detector and test the number of records, can I analyze and terminate the workbench before the Deleted, Inserted, and Updated records get processed in the Writer?

I have a large XML (4GB+) I have trouwble to read. I need all elements, however: pand_bagpandid (2) only becomes a feature when it's the only element selected. If I check 1, I get alle elements execpt pand_bagpandid, when I select individual elements (3) I still get all elements except pand_bagpandid, if I only select pand_bagpandid I do get it, but I don't get any of the other elements. I am inexperienced with xml and have ben struggeling with this for quite a bit now. The xml fragements show the same behavior. Flattening, fragmenting or exposing attributes didn't work for me either

What's Up Wednesday (7-September-2022): Scavenger Hunt Results, Hub Updates, Server API v4, More FME Conference Follow-Ups, Transformer Friday, and more...

Hello FMEers,Here's your weekly dose of news from the world of FME. Scavenger Hunt ResultsThe Scavenger Hunt just finished and the results could not have been closer: Team Nordend won from Team Zipster by just 65 points. And it wasn't just close in points, it was also close in time. Team Nordend made the winning submission just seconds from the game closing. I thought that was a deliberate tactic, but it appears that they really did get the winning solution at the last second: So congratulations to them, Team Zipster, and Team Transformer - in fact, to anyone who participated. And thank you all for taking part. The whole idea was to learn a little about FME while having fun and to help build teamwork. It seems we succeeded: If you want to have a go at solving the problems for yourself - or just check out the answers - then you can find most of them on the community: Fun with Flags Puzzles/Solutions (easy level)Where in the World Puzzles/Solutions (medium difficulty)Brain Teaser Puzz

How can I update/change specific PropertySet values (IFC)?

Hi everyone,I’m struggling to change/update values of an IFC-file. Example:old PropertySetIfcPropertySet VolumePosition: 1Unit : m3Quantity: 15 new PropertySetIfcPropertySet VolumePosition: 1Unit : m3Quantity: 350 I used the GeometryPartExtractor to extract the IfcPropertySets from a IfcBuildingElementProxy geometry. Then I tried to adapt this https://community.safe.com/s/article/updating-ifc-example into my workspace. I used an AttributeCreator:ifc_property_set_name = VolumeQuantity = 350 After that I configured the GeometryPropertySetter and GeometryPropertyRemover. Unfortunately, the original PropertySet Volume will be deleted after writing. In the updated one, Position and Unit are missing. Is there a way how I can keep the traits of the original PropertySet and only change/update one specific value? thxNel

Group features by week number

My dataset contains date attributes per day that work was completed. My output needs to have the count of attributes that fall within any given week - example week 40 has 25 attributes - going back to the start of the year. I'm new to working with dates in FME so any help would be appreciated.

What causes my attribute values (in this case CASnumbers) to be distinct?

Hi, I encountered something peculiar last week. I had to compare two datasets about chemical substances measured in groundwater.To compare the datasets, I used the ChangeDetector. While doing so, for one substance an update/change was found for the value of a CASnumber. However, when I look at the originalValue and the revisedValue, I don't see any difference. Also, when I perform a compare using (a plugin of) Notepad++, it also detects a difference in the two CASnumbers. So there seems to be a difference, I just can't seem to spot the difference ;) Maybe some people here can help take a look and provide an explanation? Any feedback is appreciated. The CASnumbers are:CASnumber_1 = '‎483-63-6'CASnumber_2 = '483-63-6' See also the screenshots below for a dummy workspace and the comparison using (a plugin of) Notepad++;

Designating band names with RasterBandCombiner

This is likely a simple question: I have a workspace set up to read, sample, clip, sort and combine Sentinel-2 data into a single raster with 9 bands. It works fine. The default band numbers generated by RasterBandCombiner are 1-9, but I'd like to name the bands based on the original Sentinel-9 band numbers as displayed in the original rasters. Is there a simple way to designate the raster band names using something like the fme_basename?

Reconciling SDE Database in workspace using FeatureWriter

Hey guys, https://community.safe.com/s/question/0D54Q000080hBYOSA2/reconcile-and-post-issue Just following this here to reconcile our versioned ArcSDE in a workspace. I have the basic flow set up: Creator --> AttributeCreator --> Writer and i've set the parameters based on the thread above. My question on the writer is what geometry type and row selection information I need to fill in to get it to trigger? I didn't see this addressed in the two threads on this I found searching.Thanks

Feature Reader - Read Excel Data that doesn't have the header on the first row

Hello,I am trying to read multiple excel files that unfortunately don't come very clean, meaning that the headers are starting on the third row while the first two rows are mainly blank. So I used the "Directory and File Pathnames" reader to pull all the excel files that I need and then connected it to the Feature Reader but the "Attributes to Expose" doesn't work as I don't have headers on the first row. I attached a snip of how the .xls files look. Basically I would need to somehow skip/delete the first two rows and read from there. Not sure. Can anyone advise on this one? Many thanks!

Does FME server or desktop use JAVA to perform any functions? If so, what JAVA is used? Oracle Java or Open Java?

We have been asked to audit all of our systems to confirm whether JAVA is being used. We want to confirm that we are compliant in licensing regarding anything Java. Thanks!

What would be the correct tool for removing data from from a file while maintaining the columns it came in?

Quick a simple question but one that has stumped me.I am trying to remove all of the data that has been pulled into FME from a shpfile on AGOL. The aim is to later replace this removed data with new data in same shpfile before reuploading this to AGOL. So I was wondering whether there was a tool that was able to be used just to remove the data while leaving the columns itself.

Extract response URL from website after completing webform

I'm trying to extract data from the website https://www.tax.service.gov.uk/check-council-tax-band/search. After submitting a postcode (e.g. LS26 0AG) it returns a coded URL with results, which I want to extract. I've got the last part (extracting the results) working well but I can't figure out how to use HTTPCaller to submit a postcode and get the URL that is returned. The form name is "postcode" but when I set it up and run I get a "HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request" error. Can anyone help please?

How to add feature dataset as a writer (i need to choose one dataset from many datasets in geodatabse)

(i need to choose one dataset from many dataset in geodatabse)

Placement of clipped rasters in PDF aren't consistent.

I'm buffering a points shapefile, then using the resulting square polygons to clip a raster (vrt OS backdrop). The clipped rasters are then passed to a PDF PageFormatter to produce location maps for each point. My problem is the raster outputs once written to PDF seem to move - placed in relation to the location of the point. how can I force the rasters to be drawn in the same place on the page everytime?

I want to provide lines (waterway) with the code of the polygon (neighborhood) it runs through.

Hello everyone, I have a shapefile with polygons (neighborhoods) and a shapefile with lines (waterways). Each polygon has a specific code attached to it. I want to provide each line with the code of the polygon it runs through. When the line runs through several polygons, it must get the code of the polygon through which the line runs the longest. Does anyone know how I can best handle this? Regards Bas
