I am Featurejoining the output from a change detector that compares an original layer from ArcGIS Online to a revised layer from my Geodatabase.    Note:  The AGOL layer was originally published from ArcGIS Pro from the coordinate system WGS 1984 Web Mercator (auxiliary sphere) .The Featurejoiner transformer rejects the features saying: “Coordinate system does not match first feature's coordinate system”Similar to the issue as seen in https://community.safe.com/topic/show?tid=20659&fid=8When I inspect the original and revised features, my features on AGOL have “SPHERICAL_MERCATOR” and my revised features have “SPHERICAL_MERCATOR_0”In  my workspace, my revised features are reprojected with ESRIReporojector to WGS_1984_Web_Mercator_Auxiliary_Sphere before entering the change detector. They then show a Coord system of  “SPHERICAL_MERCATOR_0”.    FYI  The ESRIProjector does display a warning saying “2.1_EsriReprojector: Ignoring input feature coordinate system `_MGA2020-54_FME_0'. This

I'm migrating spatial data from AutoCAD (hosted in an Oracle database) to a SQL Server(ESRI geodatabase). I want to automatically extract domain values from Oracle lookup tables and populate them as domains in the SQL Server (EGDB) without using ESRI tools (like ArcGIS or ArcPy). Is there a way to automate this process, and what would be the recommended approach?

Is it possible to downgrade from Revit 2025 to Revit 2024 using FME Revit Writer?

Hello,I have a question regarding the implementation of dynamic attributes.I created a flow to turn a single attribute into text for the actual values of the column and row of an attribute; Following the pattern below: Original AttributeGoalAfter achieving this, the biggest problem is that these 'dynamic' name attributes come as unexposed attributes.Unexposed AttributesI could simply place an AttributeExposer and resolve this case, but the problem is that the flow will run in several different scenarios, and the values (A, B, C, F) will never be the same; they can vary to anything (G, H, T, Z, B, A, or K, LL, BN, XS, D).Therefore, I need the exposer to work automatically as well, but I couldn't make it receive @value(list_name); it literally exposes the value '@value(list_name)' as if it were an attribute with the name of the code. Thank you for your assistance!Best regards,

Ok so I have read that the Waze JSON feed is not formed correctly which stops FME from natively reading the GeoJSON with a reader. You have to use a httpcaller with the Accept-Encoding heading parameter. So I got the translation started but I have hit a snag with the line geometry for the JAMS and IRREGULARLITIES feature categories. Here is our waze feed if anyone can get it to work properly with a reader instaed of a http caller.https://www.waze.com/partnerhub-api/waze-feed-access-token/8065da30-c46e-4dee-937a-68b8dac4d2a0?format=1 I have attached a sample json txt file of our feed. The issue im having is I have paired the line features down to {"x":-96.637385,"y":32.846625}{"x":-96.637275,"y":32.846417}{"x":-96.636865,"y":32.846035}{"x":-96.636524,"y":32.845655}{"x":-96.636179,"y":32.845214}{"x":-96.635502,"y":32.843905}{"x":-96.635225,"y":32.

I have a JSON file from waze that I am trying to read.I am using the JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) reader.There are three schema; alerts, irregularities and jamsI can read alerts okay with this queryjson["alerts"][*]Flatten Nested JSON values into Attributes = YesRead Entire Feature as JSON Fragment = Nowhich reads 433 alerts, each with a location.x and location.y which allows me to built a point object (Vertex) for each feature.But I am struggling with the irregularities and jams.The irregularities have a line object which obviously does not convert into two neat columns.How do I read the line object?I have attached the json file here

Hello everyone,At our organization we work on a virtual machine. When you log on into a virtual machine, you share the virtual machine with other users. Since a few weeks we encounter sometimes black screens when trying to use FME form 2023 or FME form 2024. I googled and the problem is quite similar to Known Issue: FME Workbench 2023 Opens as a Blank Window on a Virtual Machine – FME Support Center, instead it's a black screen. The article mentions about OpenGL versions, however the specs for all our virtual machines should be the same, so I think the cause is different.When you encounter the black screen, you can only hover over the black screen and can't do much else. When you close FME Form and try to open a new FME Form sesssion, you still get a black screen. The only workaround is to log off and log into a new virtual machine where this problem doesn't occur. We already did some troubleshooting and we know one thing for sureIt's possible that fme form 2023/2024 initially worked f

Hi, I am using the attribute creator to populate a new field. I want to fill in the blank rows with the previous master property number from the master prop no field. I have enabled the adjacent features but no matter what I try it still only populates just the 1 record after a value and not all the blanks. I thought I would only need 1 based on what I’ve found on the forums.What am I doing wrong here?I also tried to do that same thing via the attribute manager but get the same result.The end result would also have row 3 (FME row id not the xlsx one) with ‘932590’ and row 6 with ‘933123’ and rows 9-11 with ‘933796’ etc with the number of blank rows varying from 1 to potentially hundreds.The settings I have for the transformers are below.I am using FME 2022.2. Thank you! Belinda

Hey all,My FME workbench stopped working and then crashed. Is there a way to recover my unsaved work? Thanks, David

Hi All,I have set up my tool tip to tell me the version number of a particular Transformer in my workbench.Is there a way of relating the version number of a Transformer to the version number of my software?Can I find out which version of the software that a particular Transformer has an upgrade?For any particular software version, is there a list of the version numbers of the Transformers?Thanks,Nick

Hi everyone, I have a question: how can I use FME to create a series of equally spaced points along a 3D polyline provided as input from a DXF file?

I am trying to fill in the rows of my table with the previous values. I saw this thread and I am following the instructions but for some reason I am only getting the first empty row to be filled but not any subsequent rows.  I tried to change the Subsequent Features to another value other than 0 and even tried to change the number of Prior Features but I always get the same results.I am on FME Form 2024.2.0.0 if that helps. Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?  

I don’t have an programming background, so please bear with me. I need to find out the circular standard deviation of the rotation attributes from a set of features in degrees.The built in AI in the PythonCaller has taken me as far as the code below. I have tried many different prompts, they use somewhat different methods to do the calculations, but all throw errors about missing methods or incorrect classes. It seems that the AI is unable to initialize the script “The FME way”, or I have not figured out the correct prompt.What do I need to ad to the script in order to get the below working? My desired output is the circular_standard_deviation as a new attribute.Another nooby question, what should I write in the box: Class to process features? import mathimport numpy as np# Function to calculate circular standard deviationdef circular_standard_deviation(angles_deg): angles_rad = np.deg2rad(angles_deg) sin_sum = np.sum(np.sin(angles_rad)) cos_sum = np.sum(np.cos(angles_rad))

Have a DTM. Am creating contour lines. Are there any tools in FME that can be used to identify any Depression Contours in the data?

Hello, so we have now switched from Server to Flow and all is good and great except from one bit, and that is there have been made some changes between these versions that have made my emailer workarounds from Server useless.So what we did before is that we just set up the Emailer in the workspaces and sent automatic answers in the ‘Body’ section of the Emailer such as:p>Hello Colleague</p><p>Here is your GeoJson to DWG/Shapefile datapackage:<a href="$(FME_SERVER_DEST_DIR)">Click me to download</a></p>Where the ‘$(FME_SERVER_DEST_DIR)’ was the download link for the result and it worked very well.But now on Flow it doesnt work, the email sends and all but there is no value being fed into the ‘a href’ so now download hyperlink for the message.What has changed here, is it only the value for the URL and if so what value should I be referring to now to get the result data on flow downloadable?If this has now been made very different then what should I be doi

Hi All,How can I add a conditional parameter (visibility) in FME 2022? I know it’s possible for 2023 but can’t find it for 2022.I have created a workflow that allows the user to export data into different formats (E57, CAD, LAS, XYZ) and I want to offer the option to export the data as DWG or DXF if the user picks CAD, some images below: ...then the user only has the ‘Choose the output CAD format’ enable if CAD was chosen in the first parameter. I’m on FME(R) 2022.2.5.0 (20230329 - Build 22795 - WIN64)

Hi, I am trying to replicate the V-Lookup formulas in FME that I currently have in my excel. Also the current excel formulas refers to a different sheet named Limits and I am looking to create the same sheet in the FME and finally when the writer generates the output the file should have 2 sheets - 1st one where the data is written and the 2nd will be Limits. Writing to the existing template is not an option due to complexities involved  

Hello,I am using LineOnLineOverlay to detect intersections within a polyline dataset. I am only interested in intersection points that involve more than one feature, and would therefore like to exclude any intersection points where a feature is intersecting against itself.Using the attached image as an example; I wish to ignore the intersection where line A is intersecting itself, but need to record where lines A and B intersect, and where line C crosses over line B.TIA,RB 

Hallo there,I have a big collection of 3D-lines and a big collection of 3D-Triangles/Surfaces that I need to intersect with each other (I only need to know whether there is an intersection not length, position or number of intersections). Performance is somewhat important due to the size of the dataset.I tried extruding the triangles to a short height to get a solid and this works but is super slow.  Surely there must be a better/more efficient way to calculate the intersection between a 3D-line and a 3D-triangle? Many thanks in advance. 

Hello everyone, I hope you are well, I am new to FME, I have a .dae file (Collada) that refers to a 3D model of a tree. I also have a layer of points with coordinates in shapefile format of an inventory of trees. Is it possible to integrate the 3D geometry of the .dae file in each of the points of my inventory?. to finally export it in a 3D viewable Kml file.

Recently two independent installations of FME 2018.1.2 crashes at start. Has anybody had similar situations and may suggest how to identify the root cause?

Hi everyone,I'm working in FME Form (not FME Server), and I would like to capture any error messages that occur during translation and send them via email using the Emailer transformer.I tried using the LogMessageStreamer transformer, but it seems that it doesn't capture error messages — only warnings and general log info.Is there a way to retrieve the error messages (or even the full log) during a translation, and pass them into the Emailer transformer?I'm looking for a solution that works within FME Form. Any ideas or best practices would be greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance,Isabelle

I think this is a simple one, but for the life of me i cant seem to figure it out.     I am running a line on line overlayer and only want to compare 1 feature dataset to another (i.e. i dont want features from the same input dataset to self intersect).  Thanks in advance.  I am running FME2011.  

I am using FME Form 2021. I have a workspace that includes a Directory and File Pathnames Reader and a File/Copy Writer. The workspace moves files from the specified Folder on one server to another Folder on a different server. It moves the files and runs no issues.  But, after the files are moved to the destination folder, I need the files in the source folder deleted. Is there a way to do this with the Reader and Writer? Is there a parameter I need to change? (I know I can make a second workspace that has the FileDeleter and delete the files that way, but wondering if I there is another way) Here is a screen capture of the workspace: 

Hi,When launching a workbench using mostly SQLExecutors, with long sql statements, I can only see the first few lines for those statements on the Log file, for each SQLExecutor, but not the full SQL statement.Is this something that cannot be modified?I’d like to have all SQL lines that have been through the process.log fileworkbenchThanks,Juanma
