FME Form

Hello, I followed steps of this tutorial (using generic workspace) : https://community.safe.com/s/article/how-to-create-a-wfs-service-using-fme-server but i Have a problem :I followed all steps.I just have a doubt on Target_URI : Is it OK ?Thank you.

I have some strange behaviour with a Tester on a FME Server Parameter.In a workspace designed to run on server I test if $(FME_ENGINE) has a value. When this passes it initiates a subsection which I don't want to run when I develop the workspace locally.This worked fine in server 2016 but it fails in server 2019. Could reproduce this in a fresh 2019 workbench.FME server log returns:Tester (TestFactory): Tested 1 input feature(s) -- 0 feature(s) passed and 1 feature(s) failedIs this ment to work this way?

How can I convert a sketchup lod4 building model in cityGML format

This seems like a pretty basic question to ask but something we haven't encountered yet with FME Desktop. If we have two datasets and I only want to do a one way synchronization of the attribute values from a new polygon layer to an old polygon layer. How do I do that? I don't want to overwrite the geometry features in the old layer, but I do want to "calculate" the new attribute values over to the new layer. Will just changing the geometry in the writer dialog box from polygon to no_geom and selecting "UPDATE" as writer mode do the trick? It doesn't seem like it would be that simple.

The photo's has a border. I plan to crop these out after the scanning procedure. Any idea how to get this job done ?

Hello, I'm new to FME and want to work out which transformers can be used for this task. I need to query a text field held in a CSV file against a list of values (text) stored in a separate CSV. If these values are present I would like to add a value of '1' to a new field in the CSV. I'm sure this is very basic but would be grateful for any assistance!Chris

I am creating PDF documents with a series of responses, so I first create a multi-line attribute then I pass that through the PDFPageFormatter and onto a PDF writer. The problem is some of the responses run off the page. I am needing to restrict the width of the multi-line attribute using something like a word-wrap function. Any ideas?

I have a *DWG file. I want to convert it to GeoTIFF. I used tool from link: https://hub.safe.com/publishers/safe-lab/templates/converting-vector-data-to-raster#description. Even though it exports successfully, I don't see the GeoTIFF output.What step am I doing wrong?Please tell me. Thanks

I'm using PATH reader and filecopy to make copies of excel files for a monthly archive process. It works great except one small issue - there's a sheet in each file that's linked to another excel file that gets updated every month with new data. The purpose of the archive is to create a snapshot of each month's dataset. Normal process is create a copy of each file manually, rename the file, then open and copy/paste values of the linked sheet, then save. I was hoping to fully automate this process. I've at least automated the copy/rename steps. Is there anyway of removing the formulas and writing the excel with values only?

I would like to find a way to expose the plot size of a given AutoCad layout within the attributes. There is an attribute for "autocad_space" which gives the name of the layout for each feature, but is there an attribute to expose the actual layout/plot size (ex: "11 x 17").To explain what I am trying to do - I have many AutoCad drawings that I need to analyze in FME. Many of the drawings have multiple layouts that are the same but different sizes, (ex: 11 x 17 and 24 x 36), but, I would like to focus on only one of them (the 11 x 17). The reason for focusing on one of them is to gather the information from inside of that plot/frame, and excluding any other data from outside of the frame. There is overlap in features if I don't narrow down the frame size. Any help/advice is welcomed and appreciated.

I'm trying to use snapper to snap a line and an arc together using their end points, then a line combiner to combine them into 1 straight line. however it doesn't appear to be working. I can cheat and use a straight line instead, but I'd like to know the correct way of doing this, as I'd like to keep the data as accurate as possible. Also, if the door comes out as *untouched* in the snapper, the rest of the process works, however if it snaps to form the half semicircle then the co-ordinate extractor and vertex creator fail to create a line. Can anybody explain this to me?

The only related transformer I've been able to locate so far is FileDeleter and it requires knowing each and every file name ahead of time, and doesn't work at all on folders.https://hub.safe.com/publishers/sigtill/transformers/filedeleter

I have 1 line and 1 polygon layer, have to extract all the intersection points and create a point layer with the attributes of line and polygon present on it, how it can be done?

I've created a new Output Attribute in AttributeManager and I want to populate this based on the results of a (rather lengthy) SQL query. However, the SQL will be looking at attribute values from the reader and not a database, which I think rules out SQLCreator and SQLExecutor.Does anybody have any suggestions as to how I might manage this?

Hi Guys, I have two feature classes in SDE and I want to append featureclass A to featureclass B and do a few additional its like dropping and recreating indexes and setting a value on newly appended data.I have this working but very very slowly, so i assume I have taken the wrong approach. ?I have an ESRI SDE r eader, connected to the fetaureclass A, and sets max features to read per feature type 3000000, I have Sql to run before read- which sets an attribute with date and time of now so I can track the records later.I then use coordinate setter and attribut manager and connect to a ESRI SDE writer, I have set this on Transact mode with 0 Transaction Number and 100000 Transaction and Features Per Transaction to be 100000 and Commit at end of Write to be NO . I drop indexes in Sql Before write and recreate them afer write .. potentially for faster loading. It is incredibly slow - around 100000 feature every half hour. (2.4 million rows to process) I can only assume this is not the way

Hi all,I have a Folder containing a series of CSV files with identical schema. I have created a Directory/Path reader to identify those CSV files. I have an attribute exposer to identify the identical schema from those CSV files. How can I pass the values of the respective attributes to my next transformer in my workbench?

New to FME, im trying to create an IMDF dataset from a CAD floor plan using the 3 step guide provided. The snapper tool either snaps the door lines together and doesn't provide a line, or it doesn't snap and provides a line, in both instances the output file still contains the door lines in their original locations. From what I understand, the preprocess.fmw is supposed to take the lines of the door and convert them into vertices and then draw a line between them and remove the original lines. Any insight into the actual process of creating a door in autocad that conforms to the workflow process would be appreciated. Does the door line and arc need to be a polyline? Does it need to be a block? any information is beneficial. Thank you! https://community.safe.com/s/article/converting-cad-datasets-to-imdf-part-1 this is what i am trying to follow. I've also given the layers the names (RM$), (GROS$) and (ADO) as this is what i understood from what information has been provided.

Good morningI am using FME Desktop 2017 and have received this error when trying to write shapefiles using a workbench that was created in an earlier desktop version. The specific workbench runs on FME 32 bit as we are reading from an Access Database

Dear everyone, I have a workbench which we is using for data download purpose. This workbench is connected with an enterprise gdb (sql server) and reading feature classes and tables and we are downloading data in different format in need basis. So far, through "Published Parameter" we have been successfully downloaded data in csv2, XLSXW, GEODATABASE_FILE formats without doing any programming but when I added "TEXTLINE" writer format in Published Parameter then the download result is producing an empty text file. Please someone help me out from this problem. Thanking you With kinds RegardsMuqit

When I open my KML file in Google Earth, I can see the data displayed in folders in the table of contents. When I use the KML reader to read the data, that folder name doesn't show up on my features. How do I get that out?

Hi, is it possible to control the table creation parameter from features when using a database writer? Like one can control the feature creation, removal or updating using an attribute fme_db_operation on the feature. I'm looking for some parameter fme_db_table_handling or so, but it does not seem to be documented?

The scenario: I have a set of 2000+ 3D polygons and a set of 2+ million(!) 3D points (with all Z's equal 0 at the start). The polygons are essentially surfaces. (I will call them that.) These surfaces massively overlap and have widely varying footprints but are at all sorts of different heights above ground. In fact, most are sloped, and many change elevation position realtive to each other as one moves horizontally through the field of surfaces.The need: For each point (XY location), I need to determine the surface elevation at that location for each surface that the point falls within and to choose the lowest elevation and put that value in an attribute on the point.So far: I have run the points and polygons through a PointOnAreaOverlayer with list building. This conveniently gives me points with a list of containing areas, where the lists are not too long, maybe 5 to 30 elements.The question: How do I loop through the area list and then compare the point to each of the

I am using the Data Interoperability extension. I created 2 spatial ETL tools and added each to a model. When run manually, the tools and models run just fine but when I put them in a python script using the syntax referenced here: https://support.esri.com/en/technical-article/000012387 , I get this "Warning: not all FMESessions that were created were destroyed before shutdown. This may cause instability" which I see that others have had in the past but typically using FME Server. Disabling log files and parallel processing are not really applicable to data interop or my workflow (which is what other's have done to resolve the warning). Can someone help me figure out how to destroy my FME Session using python? Thanks! -Tiffany

Hello, I am struggling with transforming a dataset that I have to the desired format. I have a table that looks (for example) like this:ID;16;50;60;75X1;10;25;80;95X2;30;30;90;X3;25;;80;100 The first issue is that I need to use the column headers to get classes:0-16, 16-50, 50-60, 60-75But for ID X3 the value in column 50 is missing and therefore I need to get the class 16-60 (instead of 16-50 as is the case for ID X1 and X2). I don't know how to create this in FME.  Secondly, I need to calculate the value for each class by substracting the values from each other. So for ID X1 I need the following result:Class 0-16 = 10Class 16-50 = 15Class 50-60 = 55Class 60-75 = 15Class >75 = 5 Besides, I want the classes as an upper- and lower limit column.So the final result that I need for the three ID's is:ID;UPPER_LIMIT;LOWER_LIMIT;VALUEX1;16;0;10X1;50;16;15X1;60;50;55X1;75;60;15X1;;75;5X2;16;0;30X2;50;16;0X2;60;50;60X2;;60;10X3;16;0;25X3;60;16;55X3;75;60;20X3;;75;0 I hope my explanat

I am creating a mosaic from a bunch of tiff files into an ecw. The shape of all the tiffs together is irregular so there is empty space. It is defaulting to black, I would like it to be white. This seems like it should be an easy fix but I can't figure it out.
