Hello Guys need your support with this case we are getting car position from streaming data 30 thousand points every 30 seconds, we use time windower to get the position of each car every 5 min, then we use a filter to check if this car entered the delivery zone,what we are looking for is to store the event when the car gets in and when it gets out and we have to store only one record for each event this event will be stored in the database as follow Crad_id start_time End_time StatusTK256 14:20 14:35 within when we store the event in the database the first time there will be no end time since the car is still within the delivery zone as soon as it gets out we will update the end time Any Suggestions we want to achieve something similar to this

Hi FME Community,Has anyone run into this odd issue? FME Workbench 2022.2.1 (FME Python 3.10+).I did have issues installing transformers from FME Hub within FME Workbench, though it now seems to have resolved itself. (Note: removed sensitive but otherwise inconsequential information)Initially FME would throw an error similar to: An error occurred while installing Python package with 'pip install --force-reinstall --no-deps --no-index --find-links C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Safe Software\FME\Packages\22776-win64\PackageFiles\safe.emailer\python --target C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Safe Software\FME\Packages\22776-win64\python\safe.emailer --upgrade --no-compile fme-emailer' : Process crashed. An error occurred while installing package 'C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Safe Software\FME\Packages\22776-win64\PackageFiles\safe.emailer'Sadly FME isn't more descriptive than this. Feedback for FME D

 Hi,I am a beginner on FME and I have some difficulties.I would like to extract from my LiDAR point cloud, the local maximum elevation with the x and y coordinates of each building footprint.I have as input :- a LiDAR point cloud- the footprint of each building in format shp.As output, I would like to have a .txt file with the maximum z of each point as well as the x and y coordinates of the maximum, all in the same .txt file.I was able to extract the LiDAR points for each building footprint using the Clipper tool.Then I used the PointCloudStatisticsCalculator tool.I get my zmax for each building as a table. But I can't get them together in one .txt file with x and y coordinates.Would you have an idea to solve my problem?Thanks in advance.

I can group separate features together for labelling purposes and this is what the attribute looks like as an autocad_mtext_string However, I can only assign one colour by using this approach.How can I assign separate colours to lines of text within a grouped mtext string so it looks like this? 

Hello,I am using the chart generator with some small numbers to make a scatterplot. I can't figure out how to display the axis values in scientific notation. See the example chart generator output image below using some made up values. The Y axis values range from 1.0e-3 to 1.0e-9. I would like to change the axis values to scientific from decimal.   Thanks for the help

I am experimenting with a new workbench that has python startup and shutdown scripts. Everything seems to be running successfully. I'm using FME 2021 as I need 32-bit capabilities for ESRI. After the workbench is done, I'm calling a python script that runs a series of SQL queries. The script finishes and FME says "Translation was SUCCESSFUL". However, the workbench is still running and I have to manually click the Stop button. Any thoughts?

AllI am having trouble automating some workspaces as the data and folders that I receive are containing dates in the format MMMYYYY as shown below...\\\\server\\FMEData\\DataDownloads\\Supplier\\Data\\Data\\Name_Mar2020 The files are supplied as shapefiles and they are also named Name_Mar2020.shp etcHow can I automate the running of these workspaces for when the folder or file name changes to the next month?? I have tried using the * in various places, but to no avail and don't want to have to run these manuallyI know this is something obvious, but just cant figure it out... Regards  

Greetings,I am getting thousands of warnings, and would like to understand more about them. Let's take these two for example and go from there. Can someone help explain what these warnings are and how to correct them?Also, are these warning slowing the run time down? The run is quite slow, and it's unclear to me exactly why.Thank you,TylerFME Workbench 2022.1 

I've read the documentation on how to connect to Google Maps with an origin and a destination parameter; https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/urls/get-started Now, let's assume that I have an Excel sheet with columns for origins and destinations, for maybe 100 posts. Is it possible to use FME to send these to Google Maps and then get each of the calculated travel times back, to create a "travel time" column for the excel sheet?

I have a polygon layer with overlapping polygons. These polygons have dates. What I would like to have is no more overlapping polygons.Where two or more polygons overlap, I would like to preserve the youngest polygon. If the size of the overlapping polygons are different, then I would like to cut out the youngest polygon and preserve what is left from the older polygon.

I am trying to read cell A1 from an Excel file but FME Desktop seems to have a problem with that cell for any Excel. Example 1 (fail): Example 2 (success with other cell): What is happening with cell A1? Why can't I read it like the rest of the cells? Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

I have 64-bit FME installed and want to read ArcFM'ised ArcSDE data. I have ArcGIS Pro v2.8 on the same machine and 64-bit Oracle client as well. I was able to generate the .SDE connection file in Pro. However using the same .SDE file, I am not able to view the feature classes in FME.

The error message from ArcObjects is {Underlying DBMS error[Unknown error No extended error.]}" We also have ArcFm ObjectReader for ArcGIS Desktop 10.6.1a installed as well. What could be the possible reason ?
