FME Form

Hello, I have a line file that I need to divide into 5 mile sections. At each 5 mile point, I need to create a perpendicular line off to the left side of the line. I need this line to be certain lengths or be able to divide the line into sections afterwards. I need to then export the coordinates of each vertex along the perpendicular line. Please see my drawing what I'm looking to create. I need the coordinates of each location where there is a home placed on the drawing. Thanks!  

I have a large FME desktop workspace that works great. It reads an ArcGIS Online feature service (2 tables), joins the 2 tables, makes many, many changes (new attributes, etc.), then writes to a different ArcGIS Online feature service (1 table). I plan to run this daily with a batch file using the Task Scheduler. The destination table is published to a group of people. My issue/question is that I need 1 to 3 attributes to be reviewed. Usually a few records (out of several hundred) need to be modified. I'm sorry my question is vague. I'm thinking that there may be way to write (publish) a few attributes to a software solution to facilitate approval records after reviewing a few attributes. The few records that aren't approved would be flagged then I would manually make the change in the ArcGIS source. An example would be removing PII such as a person's name.

I have a street centerline Feature Class in a File GDB. I did a topology check in ArcGIS Desktop and it identified two streets that are overlapping one on top of the other (each street is identical in length). In FME, I set up a workbench with the SpatialFilter Transformer and two Inspectors to do a topology check. In the SpatialFilter I have tried using all the Spatial Predicates to test one at a time. FME does not call out these two overlapping street segments as does ArcGIS Desktop and ArcGIS Pro.  Maybe if I set a Parameter Condition Definition based on Shape_Length attribute field it might work?  Fyi, I am using this data as a test to help me improve my FME skills. Any ideas on how to get FME to call out these two streets?  Here is a screen capture of the two streets highlighted in red as seen in ArcGIS Desktop.

Im trying to understand how to extract properties/radius from Oriented arcs. The ArcPropertyExtractor only works on "normal" arcs so a workaround could be to coerce the the oriented arcs to normal arcs, but can find a transformer for that. The properties exists in the geometry so cant be that difficult to extract it. Any ideas?

Hi!I got a problem with my app... I think!I got the same error message for anything that I read or transform.From a single simple shapefile polygon to LiDAR point cloud (las) i can't seem to do anything Here's the log:+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Feature Type: `'Attribute(string: UTF-8): `fme_geometry' has value `fme_point'Attribute(string: UTF-8): `fme_type' has value `fme_point'Coordinate System: `_FME_0'Geometry Type: IFMEPointCoordinate Dimension: 3(301381.02734451834,5038785.402441637,0)===============================================================Unknown coordinate system '_FME_0' specified - aborting I've tried geometry coercer and to reproject in simple epsg's but it doesnt help I'm far from good on this app... hope someone can help! Thanks your time!

Hello Somehow there seems to be a problem with the WorkspaceRunner and privateParameters in the Workspace, that should be run. .. (I use FMEDesktop 2022.1) I get this error-message:Undefined macro `Pfad_MGDM_Files' dereferenced in file `I:\\AGI\\Geoinformation\\Produkte\\GDI\\Themen\\A021 Laermempfindlichkeitsstufen\\c\\etl\\wb-xlate-1668001125589_14180' > the Parameter `Pfad_MGDM_Files' is a private parameter in the Workspace to be run, and I use it, to concat a filepath. A private parameter should be of no interest to the workspace with the WSRunner...? I attach the workspace below. Thanks in advanceVera

I am using the attribute manager to remove fields from my schema that I am writing into an Esri file geodatabase. I am finding that the fields are still present in the new feature class that is being generated but now have null values.  Is there a way to do this?

Hello, can you help me? I have .las format cloud point as input and I want to get buildings with roofs?

I know the issue of dynamically exposing attributes in a feature reader from the Generic port comes up often, but I thought I would ask anyway. I have two issues with the FeatureReader regarding scripted parameters. Firstly, I have a text file which contains a list of feature classes to read. As feature classes are added to the database, the name will be added to the text file. I have a Python Scripted Parameter which is called "FeatureTypes" with the following code:f = open(r"D:\Scripts\DEV\List of Feature Classes.txt", 'r')featureTypes = ''for line in f.read().split('\n'):    featureTypes += (line + " ")f.closereturn featureTypesThis returns a nice list of all feature classes to read. In my FeatureReader, I set the Feature Types to Read paramter, to this $(FeatureTypes) parameter. However, when the database tries to read it, it's reading the literal string "$(FeatureTypes)" instead of the list. I got around

Hi, I have a list of attributes "A_x1" to "A_x20" and I want to sum them up with the attributes "B_x1" to "B_x20 based on the name of the attribute name. Like if part of the attributename = _x1 then sum.  See table below as example. Thanks!

Hi, I wanna test if geometries are within an given area, I found the Spatialfilter transformer, but it doesn't work as expected. Geometries that i'd like to test were set as Candidate, the area as Filter and Tests to perform to Within. But it does not test for candidates within the filter, instead it tests if the filter is within the candidate, which is not what i want to achieve. Do you have an idea what I am doing wrong, or what I can change to make it work? I am using FME Desktop 2015 thx & br,mel

Hello,  I would like to download a jpg file from my FME server and save it to my local drive with an API call.  Using FME desktop, I am not sure which transformer/writer to use, and I can't seem to find my REST API call to work. There are a few API documentations in the web, but what I tried was a GET call, but it doesn't seem to download anything.https://<fmeserver.example.com>/fmerest/v3/resources/connections/<MY_SHARED_SOURCE>/filessys/<file_directory/filename.jpg>I am pretty sure my auth and permission is file. Can someone please guide me how to achieve my goal? Kind regards,Tae

I've created a functional workspace based on the wonderful ArcGIS Indoors to IMDF template; Even got a reasonable IMDF dataset successfully written!  In my ArcGIS Indoors model, I don't have any data in the "Sites" feature class (IMDF: venue.geojson) but it's handled in the workspace (thanks!). A little massaging of my source data solved that problem! Unfortunately, I have address data in the ArcGIS Indoors "Facilities" feature class. Since the venue.geojson and building.geojson both originate from "Facilities", and there were two rows in Facilities, this results in multiple (3) entries of the same address (okay, they have unique address_ids). I'm new to FME -- so, I tried a few things (i.e. adding a "DuplicateFilter" but then realized I don't know how to get the respective address_id further downstream).I was thinking of "FeatureMerger" (?) but it seems really magi

I want to get the Start, Mid and End point from: 1. A line dataset (Roads)2. A polygon dataset (Roads) What is the easiest way to process this? (The polygon dataset is in the shape of roads, so looking at the start, mid and end point of the road as we see it!)

Ok, I know this is something dumb, but rather than beating my head against a wall I figured I'd ask for some help! I have a vector data set that I am converting to a raster. No problems there. The issue I am having is each vector polygon has a value set. I want to pass the value to each raster pixel (30X30). When I use any of the vector to raster converters (mapnik, image, or numeric) rasterizers I am getting the same single raster without the values being passed. I attempted to group the features by a GUID, and value but that just created 700+ separate rasters. Any ideas on how to pass the value field to each single pixel would be appreciated. I've attached a sample of the clipped vector data.

Im hoping im posting this in the right category..  Im trying to connect to ArcGIS online portal using these instructions: https://community.safe.com/s/article/How-to-create-an-FME-Web-Connection-for-Esri-ArcGIS-Portal-Feature-Service-OAuth-2-0 Everyhing is filled in correctly but when trying to authenticate I get a window called Web Service Authentication that stays grey. What could be happening here?

I have 10 long/lat coordinates, 1 in each column of a CSV file, with the headers listed as follows: Y1, X1, Y2, X2, Y3, X3, etc. The final two coordinates mirror the first two coordinates, so that the shape is closed. I am new to FME and am attempting to create a polygon from this CSV file and would love any guidance offered. Thank you.

Hi guys, I have one more question. I've got task to generalize railroads in fme but I don't have any idea how to start (example data in screenshot).  On the screen you can see a lot of railroads with gap between around 5meters, I would extend the gap to 15 meters at least. I tried with bufferer but there is no result. Any ideas?

Hi FME-Experts,I'm trying to read features from an Oracle Spatial Table by the corresponding reader. Although reader option "Max Features to Read per Feature Type" has been set to 20, FME didn't stop reading. (See Screenshot) Does anybody have an explanation why this behaviour occurs? Actually I'm not reading only one table but three, so switching over to "Max Features to Read" is not really an option. With this option, reading would really stop after the given number of features has been reached. (but only for one Feature Type) Looking forward to your answers!(FME Desktop 2022.1.1 Build 20220728, identical behaviour in FME 2021.2)

Ok, reach way back into those 30 year old neurons and long un-electrified bits: is there anything in FME today that can read PAMAP GIS data files?  I have a stash of Pamap data from the 1990s to convert to a modern format such as GeoPKG or shapefiles and geoTIFF. Pamap and Safe are both BC born and raised, have overlapping time spans, and were heavily involved with BC government spatial data operations. Surely there was some interaction? Perhaps there's a SAIF v1 or FME v0.3b or in the archives somewhere that can be resurrected for this single task? (This is personal project and not associated with my day job at Yukon government. My personal google account is mistakenly tied to my work credentials on the Safe Community site. Please use maphew@gmail.com if not following up via this forum. Thanks.)

Hi, excuse me for the interruption. I have one problem and maybe you can give me some advice.I have .las format cloud point where buildings are filtered and I want to get 3d roofs (or building and roofs) as output. output:
