Hi Everyone I have come across an ifc file where the Feature Reader does not find all IfcSpaces when reading a file. Both ifc Viewers DeSite and Solibri manages to read the files, but the Feature reader loads maybe only a third of the objects. My suspicion is that there has been some post editing of the Ifc file by some third party software or created with a plugin EDM? EDM Software: https://jotneit.no/express-data-manager-edm Example of Ifc FileStructure https://essxnce.wordpress.com/2019/07/31/190731-searching-how-to-make-ifc-file-from-non-ifc-file/ If someone know how to read there files with success, please give me a shout out! If not, I imagine this needs to become a feature request to be able to read EDM IfcFiles? Regards Fred

I'm reading a number of json files each with their own set of records. I can see I need to expose many attributes but without adding hundreds of lines (the index goes to 142). Is there any easy way to go from screengrab below to web site structure at http://reg.bom.gov.au/products/IDT60801/IDT60801.94850.shtml:

Hi I would like to use a new line as a separator in the list concatenator but I do not know what I need to actually type into the separator box. The help suggests a sequence of Ctrl+Shift+j (^J) but if I CTrl+Shift+j, nothing happens. I have no idea about the ^J. I have tried pasting this in as text too but no combination works. Please could someone explain what the help file is suggesting I do? Thanks

Hi there, I have many roads (lines) and many areas (polygons) of a city. Within each area there are let's say 20 roads. Each road has a grade based on its condition stored in an attribute. I would like to calculate the average of this grade for all the roads within an area, so that I can compare the average grade for each area in the city. I have not yet found a transformer that can calculate the average in a way like this. Anyone got any idea? Thanks a lot in advance

I've been given some data - 10 KMZ files which seem to comprise multiple named layers (so over 70 in total) with only occasional data in the Name field, which I want to convert to TAB format. I'm struggling with it - below are 3 views of the data - in Google Maps, in QGIS and in FME Data Inspector. I also attach one of the KMZ files here. I'd like to generate a workspace to produce 10 MapInfo tables of points, lines and polygons, to correspond with the KMZ files and named as the KMZ files, but with an attribute column populated with the layer names, for example, "J Garden Terrains" (in QGIS appears to be the Layer names) and a Name field for the occasional data that has. The only way I can see of converting the data at the moment is to click on each layer in QGIS and Save As a MapInfo table. I'm sure I must be able to do this in FME - I hope so! If anyone can help I'd be very grateful. Thanks, Jane

So I'm trying to reproject the data in a DWG file from one projection using the ETRS89 datum (ETRS89 / NTM zone 11 [EPSG:5111]) to another (ETRS89 / UTM zone 32N [EPSG:25832]). I've set up a feature reader to read using the RealDWG reader to a single output port. I've set up a RealDWG writer from that same port, writing to a different coordinate system. I've tried three different versions of this: One without any projector transformer, just writing to a different CRS, one with the PROJReprojector and one with the Reprojector transformer. As far as I can see the results look the same from all three. The input data is located nicely along a corridor as seen in the inspector: In the output file I have data in three clusters: The southern one contains some of the original data in the original coordinate system. They are not transformed at all! The middle one contains some of the original data transformed correctly to the new CRS. The northern cluster contains a smaller subset of data that

When I applied a fan out to the writer the tags appeared correctly why don't they appear with no fan out?

I need to convert dwg to pdf and one of the line styles is "- x - x - x - x". I can create different dash line but not sure I can add x in between dashes. I hear there are possibilities of either converting it to raster when writing or keep the vector form. I would love to get some idea on how to do both. Thank you!

Why am I getting the above error on my system?

Hi. I would like to ask for advice. I have two types of space. One type of space is a closed polygon inside the state and that is fine. The other space is the polygon, but one side of the polygon boundary is formed by the state boundary. The database does not contain the points (coordinates) that form the state border and an incomplete polygon is created for me - the database contains only the points (coordinates) of the polygon. I have the coordinates of the whole state that makes up my polygon. What with this? I can have two paths. Either mark the starting point of the polygon and the last point of the polygon where the state boundary begins and include these coordinates in some way, or it would be enough for me to insert between these two points the text that the polygon between these two points is defined by the state boundary. The output file is JSON.

Hello, I have a lot of big scripts a lot of test criteria. Is there a way to import test criteria for a tester? I know the import function for the AttributeFilter but that doesn't fulfill my needs.

I have a workbench which converts IFC to ESRI Multipatch, the original colours in IFC are reserved very well in the output Multipatch (as inspected in ArcGIS Pro)， however if I convert the multipatch to 3D object scene layer package, it seems the colours are gone. there are not many option for me to play in the I3S writer. I have checked the FME I3S factsheet which has mentioned Generic Color Support: No. Not sure if that's related, but any advice how to keep the colours of the output .slpk matches what's in the original IFC or multipatch? thanks

I'm running JSON Fragmenter to break out an array, and, in the process, it indexes each row of that ID. Is there a way to retroactively put the last JSON Index value of each ID's array into every row associated with that ID? I'm trying to calculate a percentage of where each row is compared to its total. (JSON index [8] of ID XXXX is in the first 2.34% of ID XXXX's total JSON Index.) Thanks, in advance!

I am trying to write a fanout of a large pdf using bookmark data that was merged from a csv file. The fanout works, but the output files give me either blank pages or very blurry/unreadable images. The source file contains many jpegs and was created using BlueBeam. I am able to see raster images using RasterConsumer (filtering to single pages), but the end result is unusable. Here is my workspace with annotations: Surely this is possible? Thanks, @lorenrouth​ Update: After looking at the data from the GeoSpatial PDF Reader, the issue appears to be the file has multiple formats on the same page. How do I deal with a pdf that has text, image, raster, spatial and vector data all on one page?!?!? If I send spatial data only to the writer, it leaves out an important raster image. If I include the raster, it is output with an unreadable black background and blurry text. If I print the pdf as an image, it looks fine, but there is no text or metadata associated with it, making it impossible to

So, I have a set of flight tracks, all uniquely identified, and I'm trying to separate the flights into phases. I've had great success for the takeoff and landing portions, as well as the cruising portion, but the ascent and descent is giving me a hard time. When a plane is ascending or descending, it gets a "C" or "D" in the altitude change column. I thought that I'd be able to characterize the ascent to cruising or descent to landing phase merely by the presence of C or D (when it levels off, it gets a "-".) Sometimes during an ascent to cruising or descent to landing, however, the plane will briefly get a "-" or worse an opposite letter, which kills the consistency in characterizing the phases of the flight. But, if a "-" or the opposite letter is present, it will always be preceded or followed by the correct flight status. So, is there a way to change an attribute's value according to that flight_id (a separate value) and the value preceding or following it?

I am attempting to make a connection to an AGOL feature service through the ArcGIS Online Feature Service Reader and receive the above exception and error indicating invalid token. I just created the web connection using valid credentials so this shouldn't be a refresh token issue. I've tried creating multiple web connections for AGOL and get the same exception/error each time. Note: I am not the owner of the feature service however is is shared to my organization. The credentials I'm using to try to create the connection are admin credentials for my organization. I have never attempted to connect to an AGOL feature service before so any help would be appreciated. I realize there are similar forum posts/questions but none seem to resolve my issue.

My /etc/apt/sources.list has already the oldstable option enabled. Did anyone managed to get FME Desktop running on Debian 11?

We have to update email address and phone number employee information in a REST available application from LDAP/AD and want to use FME. With the LDAP reader being in Technology Preview stage we are a little concerned about moving down this path and may have to use a .net application instead. Is there a timeline for when the LDAP/AD reader will be ready? Thanks, Simon

I tried creating a spatial relator, but then I'm not sure how to take the results and combine the geometries to an area

I have a layer representing building polygons and another layer showing garden polygons; what I need is to create one merged polygon representing a building and a garden. This is based upon whether the building polygon touches/abuts (borders) a garden polygon, however this must be a 1:1 relationship so if there is more than one garden that the building abuts, then it must choose the garden polygon it has the longest edge with. I have tried to use the NeighborFinder and Dissolver, but it does not seem to work between the two polygon layers. Any ideas are welcome. Thank you.

i have my JSON data at postman and I would like to connect it with FME? how could I achieve it ? another question , could I post the data to FME desktop or should I connect it with FME server ? i am totally new to work with REST API and I would like to know ,where should I start ? FME 2018 . Thanks in advance .

Hi, all. I'm trying to pull a couple of dozen JSON files into FME with an API through flightaware.com, so that I can build flight tracks, based on the unique flight_id of each flight. I built a python script today that accomplishes the objective and saves all of the separate JSONs into one JSON, locally. With some help, I figured out how to pull that JSON into a couple of fragmenters and have been going from there. So, ultimately, I have the option of continuing to run the script separately from the FME session, but I was curious if anyone knows how to integrate an independent Python script into the workflow. Python caller hasn't worked for me, I assume because it's designed to process features not save files locally. Also, I didn't use the http caller because the URL request was done per flight id, so I decided I'd need 20 callers running simultaneously. Is that a correct assumption, or is there way of iterating through a list to fill in the URL request multiple times? Thanks!
