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 valesi 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? ThanksRob

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 communicat

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

when I write cesium 3dtiles ，then got a tileset.json 。The boundingVolume of the tile is smaller than the content boundingVolume 。And the geometricError  of the tile almost is same 。

Hi !I have a line with his orientation.I would like to orientate parallels lines on the same way.Do you have an idea?Thanks !

Hi all,We're attempting to use S3Uploader in FME 2015.1.1 and FME 2016.1 to upload data to a bucket in ap-southeast-2 (Sydney), but we're receiving an error from AWS that seems to indicate that FME is not uploading to ap-southeast-2.“The bucket you are attempting to access must be addressed using the specified endpoint. Please send all future requests to this endpoint. (Service: Amazon S3; Status Code: 301; Error Code: PermanentRedirect;”Googling this error results in many bug reports from other software using AWS where they have forgotten to specify an AWS region, and it's defaulted to a different region than where their bucket resides.According to FME's documentation here, our AWS region should be automatically detected."As of build 2015.1.1, all AWS transformers support multiple regions. You don't have to do anything we automatically detect the region."We've been unable to find any further information about how the automatic detection works, or how

Hi, I need to understand some FME log statements that is :  INFORM|Combiner: The following attributes will be generated with default values because they are required but not present on the feature: fme_rejection_code When writing output to the ArcSDE writer, which is set to Insert and Update, I use Attribute remover to remove attributes that I do not want to write, but I forgot to include fme_rejection_code in a list of attributes to remove. I am concerned that the writer will include this attribute in the feature class. I realized I had forgotten to remove a couple more attributes from in attribute remover. Is it going to break something at the back-end ArcSDE. I dont see any new attributes added in the feature classes though.I appreciate any assistance on this issue. Thanks,

I have 3 questions with regards to converting ifc to citygmlI did a conversion from ifc to citygml, but when I look at the converted citygml model, I only see some attribute information displayed. Is this a proof that converting ifc data to citygml will definitely eliminate some semantic aspects?How to display volume information of each converted room from ifcspace ? Is it because the space modeled in lod4multisurface cannot be determined in volume? (The conversion scheme I made refers to the conversion scheme found on the fme website and the experiment that has been carried out by the geobim project). previously I also converted ifcspace to Room element. The room is modeled in lod4solid on fzk software and I can see the calculated volume resultI converted the ifcslab element into a citygml model, but when making a conversion scheme to citygml, the element must be modeled on the floor surface element. If it is not modeled on the floor surface, the conversion results cannot be displayed

Hi All, I'm trying to create DWG leaders based on the following post: https://community.safe.com/s/question/0D54Q000080hahzSAA/how-creat-autocadleaderbut couldn't get to work. I use autocad_leader settings as the post suggestsbut the leaders aren't coming through. Could anyone point me in the right direction on how to get the autocad_entity to work? I'm attaching a few screenshots of the workflow as well as the parameters.     Thanks All :)

Dear colleagues,I'm looking for a way to perform updates within 1 table based on consecutive attribute values. In the attached picture I want to increase/adjust the “Traject_volgnr” if this condition is met for 2 consecutive features : “Route4” is the same but the difference between the consecutive “Hm_pos” is greater than 2. In the example this should give the following result: Line 15089 - 15093 the "Traject_volgnr" remains 1 but in lines 15094 - 1598 the "Traject_volgnr" changes to 2 (or another value).  

I have a workbench that has a ESRI Reprojector that reprojects from HARN to Web Mercator before publishing to out to a service in ArcGIS Online.Each time get the error:Reprojector: Invalid reprojection parameters%0 Writer: Failed to reproject feature with coordinate system '%1' to '%2'.

Hi,I have a set of regular polygons of 4 vertex like shows attached figure.I have to split each of these polygons in 2 parts following red line shown in attached figure. Also, I have the condition to cut in parts of specific amount of total polygon area, for example: 20%. It's important to say I don't have the red line. It's only to explain how to cut the polygon. I tried PolygonCutter transformer from FME Hub but needs to have the line, so maybe the question was how to create the cutter line?  I look forward to hearing your expert suggestions, thank you!

Hi, I am having a problem with FME doing truncates/inserts to an ArcGIS Online hosted layer. Sometimes the number of records in AGOL is 1000 more than FME says it is writing. If I run FME again it is 2000 records too many, 3000 when run again. This is happening in Workbench and Server 2020.2 but does not happen all the time. Features per request in the writer is set to 1000. This has not been a problem writing to other formats and I have other FME services writing to other AGOL layers without issues. Thanks, David
