FME Form

I would like to incrementally download features including attachments (jpg images) using the ArcGIS Portal feature Service Reader. I want to do this by filtering the feature creation date using a tester. This works fine but when I check the option to download the attachments, it takes an enormous amount of time. It's a large datset and I only want to download some of the most recently added data. Is there any way to perform the tester operation first before downloading the attachments?

Instead of logging in and looking at the credits usage on ArcGIS.com daily/weekly, I would like to have a script running finally in the FME server that runs daily or weekly and informs me via a mail that the credits has reached a certain amount. This informs me that additional credits need to be bought. Does anyone know what would be achievable in FME desktop? How can I retrieve credits information within FME deskstop?

X1/Y1 is the left bottom corner and X2/Y2 is the right top corder. Cannot find how to do it...? Vertex creator with Add point and LineBuilder just draws a line

Hello My 2 recent posts were related to issues experienced with FME 2022. I was hoping this one would disappear however it still persists using the latest build. It did stop (previous build) some of my critical workflows from functioning properly although the translations were successful. Basically Attribute Manager will highlight some of my values in Red. But the transformer's cog itself isn't red. It seems to affect Arithmetic values or use of functions. Here's the workflow - Nothing unusual Let's check the Attribute Manager Values highlighted in Red for no apparent reasons I click on the Attribute Values and they return to "normal" however when you close / re-open the Transformer sane thing happens. Not sure what is going on here. Translation is successful though. Thanks Sameer

Writing data to the DGNV8 writer I use a Seed file where the geographic coordinate system is well defined. In addition to the Seed file I defined the coordinate system also in the writer itself, and all data handled in the workbench are going through a reprojecter transformer. The outcome shows the data in the right projection, but it is not reflected in the DGN files properties. What is the right way to get the coordinate system written into the output DGN file?

I'm trying to use the ArcGIS Portal writer to 'update/overwrite records' in a layer. I'm using truncate and insert to remove the records before replacing them. I'm getting this error 'ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Writer: 'addResults' error for a feature in 'BranchTest.DBO.Hospitals_in_NJ'. The error code from the server was '-1' and the message was: '''. When viewing the portal item in Pro after running there are 'records' but all attributes are Null other than the Object ID. If I view the source referenced SDE layer there are no records. Any ideas?

I am working with rasters and want to fill some No Data Value cells with new data using a Raster Convolver (square matrix, with 0 in corners). To do an extent. When I use this, it still creates cells with value 0.0 in the corners where I would still want no data in this corner ; so I could repeat the process if needed (and fill a new gap instead of using a 0 value that will have an effect of values for next iterations). I am asking if there is a way to have this in FME, or to use any self-made matrices to be applied on rasters. Thanks SG

I have Geotiff file and I need to convert in shape file with data I am new in this so I don't know how to Extract fields and attributes from Geotiff + this is the file https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/gis/inundation/inundation.zip

Is there a way to automate map creation in FME for Esri? I've looked through the documentation and can't seem to find anything.

I would like to know what datasets we use. For this I would like to read the Arcgis Pro project files (.aprx). Does anyone know what encoding is used for this file type?

Hello I'm working on an BIM/GIS integration approach. I need to integrate my revit model in a 3D GIS environnement mainly in ArcGIS pro and use it for spatial analysis. Any suggestions about the best approach ? should i simply import it, use data interoperability extension ( quick import ) or convert it to citygml or file geodatabase ? I'm struggling to understand these different formats and I'm new to this. Please Help.

Hi, I know this is probably very simple but cant think of an easy way to do it. Create faces from points centered at the point. lets say i want 1x1m big faces, thought of creating same amount of faces as points and just offset but there must be a way to convert my input points to faces instead. I used FaceReplacer before but it wont accept points I tried extrude 3 times, x y and z, but then I get correct results sure but with weird middle line that I dont want. I want a solid block/box with a certain x y and z measure result not favorable

I tried to use DateTimeCalculator, but it has an error output as 'invalid input' but I cannot see where it is. I attach the details.

i am trying to Transpose Name fields as a Column and Value are vales i tried attribute creater and data coming like this its sholud b in one row

I have a series of raster files of infrared aerial imagery. I would like to intersect them with a set of polygons in a shapefile and return the average (or frequency) of the RGB channels in the rasters. Could anyone advise if this is possible please? Thanks Rob

I am trying to read a custom created attribute from BIM360 with the AutodeskBIM360DocsConnector. The BIM360Connector has the option to select some attributes under the "Output Attributes" -> "Attributes to add" option but these are only the standard attributes that Autodesk supplies. I have created an attribute on our BIM360 environment called "InladenGIS" with the value Yes on a specific file. Is it possible to read this attribute value when using the List option on the AutodeskBIM360DocsConnector transformer in FME? If not, is there a possible workaround using the HTTP callers and are there plans to support custom BIM360 attributes in the future?

We have 2 workbenches which we call 'outer' and 'inner' for our processes. The 'outer' workbench gets parameters and then passes them to the 'inner' workbench for processing. If we are running this in fme workbench, we use a workspace runner to trigger the second process. If we are running this in FME Server, we use an FMEJobSubmitter to trigger the second process (which is also published on FME Server). There is a user parameter to distinguish if it is running on desktop or server and a filter to direct the data to the correct transformer. Running from FME desktop runs the processes successfully with the workspace runner. We are also successful running the 'outer' from desktop and triggering the 'inner' using the FME Server Job Submitter. When we run the 'outer' on FME Server, we get a very vague error from FME Server: 2022-06-23 10:43:09| 1.0| 0.0|WARN |FMEServerJobSubmitter (ServerFactory): FME Server error: `Error communicating with FME Server. FME Server may not be running. Please

I am using "Esri Geodatabase (ArcSDE Geodb)" reader and writer (For read and write features dynamically), but empty feature classes not listing under feature types.

I create the workspace but problem is its getting first one but what i need is get the latest one. also the file is KMZ and i cant get the Placemark where all location is stored please help me out in this https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/gis/ I am attaching the workspace

Hi everyone, I am trying to expose some custom ​attributes contained within an IFC so I can expose their attributes, see attached image (BIM vision IFC viewer). ​ There are ​various containers (e.g. SM location) and then custom attributes within those containers. ​ I followed these instructions with the GPE and Attribute Exposer but they are still not exposed. ​ Thanks. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​

To give a brief introduction. We have setup a containerized FME stack where the engines are residing on a different server. As is recommended and because the external engines are not running in the local Docker network, I am using a declarative "PORTPOOL" range. So both in environments "PORTPOOL=9000-9200" and in the ports "9000-9200:9000-9200". Using this setup, I notice the following message keep coming back in the FME Core container: "Trying to update FME Server services..." This keeps on going, where a message every seconds is being send. This seems to only happen when setting both the "PORTPOOL" and defining the ports. Removing this, does not let this message come up. To have some insight in this, I was wondering what this message is actually indicating and what is meant with "update" and "services".

I have the definition of a surface made up of triangles, in this case closed polygons. I want to be able to create an accurate surface that maintains the definition of the polygons, but also interpolates between them, as sketched in red on the attached image. The Triangulator does a good job of maintaining the polygon definitions, but doesn't fill the gaps. The Surface Modeller does fill the gaps, but the result in greatly distorted. Any ideas?

Hello, I have a problem with the ImageFetcher transformer. I'm trying to create images from a WMS link. The error is : _http_error (string: UTF-8): ImageFetcher: The HTTP response did not include a Content-Type header, so the image type cannot be detected. I've tested the WMS link on Firefox, Edge and even on Internet Explorer and its working properly without any error. Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi! I see that AreaBuilder transformer does not work with 3D lines and cannot generate 3D area. But what is the solution here or what alternative exists in FME? I have a data set with roof lines that describe roof shape. In the last 3 months I have tried many possible combinations of transformers and tested many parameters but never got the desired result. Anyone can help me with this?

Hello, I have one column that is supposed to contain only numbers. But some values contain letters ou special caracters. With a Tester Transformer, how can I separate features wich the value contain letters or special caracters ? Thank you
