FME Form

Hello, I have a (excel)list of points [x,y,z] which was recorded along a cable. The recording was done contiguously both upwards and downwards. Unfortunately without marking the reversal points. The starting point of the cable is the first point of the recording in the list. If I now generate a line from the point list using FME, I get a 3D line which runs both upwards and downwards. My goal is to split this line into two lines, but I haven't found a transformer that will give me the inversion point. My idea for determining the reversal point would be to determine the reversal point based on the distance to the starting point. The reversal point would then be the point from the point list with the greatest distance to the first point in the point list. How could I solve this elegantly in FME? Thanks a lot for your support

I can reproject CSAR point clouds but I can not write them to the CSAR point cloud format, only to ASCII XYZ.

Hello everyone! I have a problem that I don't quite know how to approach. I want to automate the production of coordinate frames in AutoCAD. The idea is to define a work area (by a square polygon) and extract the relevant coordinate frame for it, as attached in the file, and in the picture. The question is, how can I attach the coordinate labels to the relevant places on the frame? I would appreciate advice from those who can give.. Thanks!

Hello! I have trouble connecting to the Fme DataExpress app, I enter my login information, and the URL of our fme server, and it gives me this error: I would be happy to help if anyone knows the problem. Thanks!

I'm working on a workbench converting CSV files with WKT geometry into autocad SDF. For some featuretypes i want to allow multigeometry. If I manually make a new feature in autocad map I can select some geomtric types that combine line and surface, point and surface, etc. . If I set the fme_geometry{0} in the schema to FME_point, i get the SDF point geometric type. But if I add fme_geometry{1}: FME_line, fme_geometry{2}:FME_polygon (This is what it looks like when I read a file with this combined geometric type into FME). It looks like only the geometry{0} is read and I also get the Geometric type point. Is there a way to use these other types? like point+curve, point+surface, .. ? screenshot below shows the geometric types available in SDF:

When I open a workbench in 2022 that is authored in an earlier version, the user parameters that contain file paths disappear. Below is the screen shots of a workbench in 2021: These are the screen shots of the same source info in 2022 I am using FME 2022.0.1.1 (Build 22350 WIN 64) If I unlink the user parameters in 2021 and then open in 2022 the file paths come through fine. Thanks Cheers Jacky

Hi, I'm trying to convert an IFC file (exported with Revit) into a .gml one. I tried to recreate the workspace suggested here: https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/1025/bim-to-gis-intermediate-ifc-lod-300-to-lod-4-cityg.html , but I could not be able to visualize the output file (.gml) in QGIS software. Using the available data at the above link, I can see them. Why? I'm using FME Workbench 2019.

My dataset contains multiple points within different towns. For example, town A will have 30 datapoints and town B has 35. Can I automatically create output ports to group the relevant datapoints by each town without having to filter them all manually?

Hi, today I have a problem with the excelwriter. I create a simple workflow: The result in excel: Why is it insert a comma and not a dot? The Data Inspector also show different types: Best regards, Florian

In this webinar (https://www.safe.com/webinars/best-in-show-fme-tips-tricks-for-productivity/) was a section titled 'How to get a background map on a PDF'. This is exactly what I want to do however my organization is only at FME 2020.2. So the Reader format of OGC WMTS is not available to me. Any suggestions on how to do this in FME 2020?

I have a workspace that converts a DWG file to a new DWG utilizing a template file. However, I am unclear on how the text styles saved in the template file interact with multi text features written to the output DWG. I understand that the template file will overwrite any styling you set in the workspace for lines, polygons, and blocks. Does this also apply to text? Here are the details, In my workspace I set the text style with the property autocad_shape_name to a corresponding style in the autocad template file. Also, the multi text features are put on a layer that exists in the template file. I have been trying to modify two attributes in the text features that are found in autocad (Annotative, and Defined Width), see the image below showing these properties highlighted in AutoCAD. However, I can't seem to set these attributes at all. Theoretically, if fme utilizes text styles from a template file, the "Annotative" property should be set correctly in the ouput (it's not) by the text

How Can I to merge text from imagem below To Using FME Desktop? Thank´s

I have merged the tables, it helped with the search but did not give me details about the specific table

I would like to iterate through a table based on a list of values. This is the process I would like to automate: Filter the table on a value then add an attribute and BulkAttributeRenamer. I have 20 values so I'd like to be able loop through the table for each value rather than have a set of transformers for every value.

Hi, I'm looking at using FME server to create our Cesium3DTilesets, rather than using the native Cesium ION on-premise tiler which we're using at the moment, so we can streamline some of our processes along with a bit of exploration. Say I have 4 OBJ photogrammetry models originally created using ContextCapture. Each OBJ file represents a building: Building1.obj Building2.obj Building3.obj Building4.obj I want to create one Cesium 3D Tileset from these building objs. I also would like to add some metadata to the generated tileset.json/b3dm files to specify which .obj they were originally referenced to, e.g. the tiles batch Id could be set as the name of the original obj for example. The reason for this is to be able to distinguish which building is which when streaming the model in an application such as CesiumJS. It needs to be one tileset that is generated rather than one per obj, as one tileset is much more performant than streaming data for each separate tileset. On a small scale m

I have wS for KMZ i create the Ws direct get the data from website which perfectly working fine now the problem is this that most of data require is in HTML format I used the technique which here https://community.safe.com/s/article/how-to-expose-feature-attributes-from-kml-tag Now I need that ws where I get direct from website and join with that KMZ which converting SHAPEFILE please anyone here who help me out please find the WS

See picture above for more context. I have made sure they are under the same coordinates when impporting them into the process as well as using the coordinate system setter but still no luck in making them overlap in the inspector afterwards. Im not sure if I am missing something obvious since I am new to FME or whether its an issue with the shp files.

Similar to method here: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/civil-3d-forum/how-to-create-surface-or-solid-to-model-existing-tunnel/td-p/8551041 I have as input a underground tunnel in MESH (pointcloud also available). I want to convert this MESH to 3DSOLID DWG. One idea was to take every single polygon of the Mesh and use the Extrude in the right direction, or the 3DBufferer (takes too long) to create a solid object before writing to DWG with RealDWG-writer. However this does not seem to be very pretty or fast on large sections. Is there a better approach to generate a solid object from a tunnel with FME?

Dear Sir/ Madam, So I would like to reproject my CityGML model (ground surface) from EPSG 2326 to EPSG 3857. However, I notice that the area is changed, even though they are both in meters. May I ask if is it normal? Is there any reason behind this? Thank you very much. With regards, Zach

I tried using Appearance setter for KMLwriter but didnt able to get the result. Appearance setter worked for CityGML output but not for KML output.

I have the Geodatabase data with around 40 milions of records in it with huge size but want read this data in parts like 1 to 10000000 , next adding it to next slot 10000001 to 20000000 to get it written in SQL database. In reader, geodatabase i have Object ID as one field with count to follow as per records. How it can be acheived with giving parameters in reader itself with different slots creating to migrate the data in different FME workbences as per slots.
