FME Form

Hi there, Thanks in advance for any help. I have a point cloud that is in XY-MT format. My goal is to figure out where the openings are on a 'flat surface'. I have taken the point cloud and filtered it so only the data I care about is being used (PointCloudFilter). I am now left with a point cloud that clearly shows my openings. I am looking to show the XY coordinates of the 7 openings shown on the attachment. I have tried a few of the transformations, but I am not having much luck.   Can someone point me in a direction where I may find the positions of these openings?

I have 2 files: dgn1 (main data) dgn2 (reference) The two files should be checked against each other for duplicates. In the end, the dgn2 should be recreated without the duplicates contained in dgn1. Please help. Thanks.

Suppose I am reading 3 files through Feature Reader and setting maximum features to read = 10. Then it is reading 10 features from 1st file and doesn't read any data from other 2 files.

I really try to keep things nice and organized, but apparently all it takes is opening one bookmark and all heck breaks loose!!! This happens all the time and it's really straining my relationship with FME. I was working on another part of the workspace before noticing the chaos. I can't just hit undo. If anybody has any tips, it would be much appreciated. With Dynamo, I don't have this problem. Devs, are you listening?

I just upgraded to ArcGIS Pro 3.0 and upgraded Data Interoperability (FME(R) 2022.0.0.2 (20220518 - Build 22343 - WIN64) . I have several tools built in the previous version that are now failing. The only error message I get is literally: "Error running translation". That's it. Not very helpful. Has anyone else experienced this with the Pro upgrade to 3.0?

i have seen a lot of write ups with this heading but none actually do what the title says. i have been able to read a kmz and get it to a writer but the .json file is empty. there is no error message, just no data when i inspect the json. i have attached the workbench. i want the user to select a kmz and the workbench write it as a json, i am using ESRI JSON because the GeoJSON will error out.

I have two datasets with polygons that I would like to connect with the linebuilder in order to show the distances. One with adresses, the other with corresponding numbered objects.  For each object for each adress there should be a line (or a point when these are identical) For this I would like to use a centerpointreplacer for both followed by a linebuilder (and lengthcalculator). However the linebuilder generates polygons when there are multiple objects with one adress that have the same xy as the adresses and one or more objects that have a different xy.  I tried using a sorter with both datasets (the adresses on adress, the objects on adress and number). The sorter for the objects has a group by on the adresses. However:Grouping the objects in the linebuilder by adress I get polygons. Grouping in the linebuilder by adress and number generates points only. Any thoughts?

FME Desktop version 2022.1 (64-bit) How to find the source data (a feature class from Personal Geodatabase or File Geodatabase) geometry type is annotation (ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro based) or not?

I have tried using the excel reader to get my file in, then httpcaller with the URL as my column of google drive shared hyperlinks. Renaming the output to a column which identifies the name that I want. I'm obviously not getting the settings right in the httpcaller or missing something entirely. New to using this and really no idea what I should be doing. For now I have only focussed on trying to download the Report but ultimately there is also a video avi to be downloaded. My input excel file looks like the following: Newname for the report and then the report google drive hyperlink.

I am reading the polygon and Lines dataset in FME. I need to select lines that are intersecting a polygon and populate the polygon name in Lines. I have used tester after feature to filter one polygon and select intersecting lines using a spatial filter. Is there a way to loop through a polygon feature and select one polygon at a time in FME, Instead of entering the Polygon name in a tester every time.  

I am attempting to offset all lines that intersect each other by increments of 5. Some lines have duplicate/stacked lines on top of them, as well as standard intersections with other lines. My intent is to assign all lines that intersect a differing offset (which is where the increment of 5 comes into play). I have tried creating a list on the Spatial Relator, but I am not getting my desired results. I don't have any trouble with creating the offsets through the Offsetter or 3D Forcer transformers, but I am stumped on trying to assign all intersecting lines a different offset (so they won't intersect in Z space).  I would appreciate any help or ideas that can be passed along, thank you!

We have been working with a user of FME ESRI Edition to repoint the connections to a SQL server Always on listener in a multi subnet environment. The connection string has been configured with the Multi-Subnet Failover check box enabled (see attached) however the connection does not appear to resolve, to the multiple IP addresses registered, in parallel as I would expect for this parameter. As a result, connections are occasionally timing out.  Can you advise if there are any relevant known issues with the FME release currently being used (FME ESRI Edition, 2021.1.3.0 build 21631). Also are there any additional configuration changes required to ensure the multisubnet parameter is set correctly within the connection? Any assistance with the above would be greatly appreciated.

How to highlight in the workbench canvas in FME desktop the route of a chosen entity? Through which transformers this entity has passed.

Hallo FME community,I have a network consisting of interconnected lines. on the other side I have some points lying on the line. I need to cut out my network based on these points and the line between two points must be aggregated with each other. Also, PointOnAreaOverlayer couldn't help me.I would be grateful if someone can help me how to do this process.  

What limits are there on backwards/forwards compatibility when using FME Objects .NET? I ask because I have a custom .NET application that was built using FMEObjectsDotNet4.dll (build 18567) that fails when used with FME Desktop 2022 (build 22337). This is the exception message: System.IO.FileLoadException: A procedure imported by 'FMEObjectsDotNet4.dll' could not be loaded. There were no issues on install (FME Data Inspector 2022 works as expected), and the Path environment variable appears to be set correctly. The custom .NET application worked properly with FME Desktop 2019.1.1 (build 19617).

Good day, I tried to convert XML file to shapefile using FME and using the same steps in safe website but the data did not show up in the map and the shape was point, and what I was expecting is line.Here is the data source of XML:OneGeology catalogue (brgm.fr). Thank you with kind regards,Majdi

My purpose is to save it as .txt document. Manually I can open it in notepad and save it as .txt. But this has to do through FME.

Hi folks, I'm just wondering if there is any interoperability for SAP Business Objects Web Intelligence - the data is stored in 'universes' and I want to be able to access that data using FME. Many thanks, Aaron

I'm try to translate a multilayer GDB file to GEOJSON file. As a result. I found all layers are merged into one single layer. How can I translate it into multilayer GEOJSON

I'm trying to read a Orthophoto from ArcGis-DB using Reader-Transformer Geodatabase-sde-Raster-Dataset and clip an specific area of the raster using definition of Search Develop. At the End, make a tif export from that.  The Problem is that FME represent the reading raster als grayscale, although the raster has four bands. How should I export a rgb tif from raster dataset? I would appreciate any Help in advance. with regardsSoschianet

Hi there,Not sure where to post this so putting it here.Can someone please keep up to date the "Known Issues" button on the support homepage (https://community.safe.com/s/support) so it links to an article for the latest version of FME, not 2020 (https://community.safe.com/s/article/workarounds-to-known-issues-in-fme-2020x) ? Thanks,Marc

I'm making an ETL to convert some features from an geodatabase SDE to Autocad DWG-files. It is working well, but i'm getting an error.AutoCAD Writer: Shape file 'ltypeshp.shx' or 'ltypeshp.shx' not found when trying to resolve shape ''It has no consequences for the output, but it is bottering me. Any idea what the problem could be. Am i missing some parameter?
