FME Form

I have balcony drawings as attached files two sample data. I want to calculate the thickness of the balconies as seen in the picture. is there a transformer for that?

I have several sketchup files. I need to merge those files into single file. I am new to FME. can someone suggest easy way to do this?

Anybody an idea why this combination would not work?The Shutdown script seems to not executed.Startup scriptdef initializeArcFM(): import win32com.client global app app = win32com.client.Dispatch('Miner.Framework.Dispatch.MMAppInitializeDispatch') runtime = win32com.client.Dispatch('Miner.Framework.Dispatch.MMRuntimeEnvironmentDispatch') app.Initialize(0x5) runtime.RuntimeMode = 0x4 print "ArcFM runtime mode", runtime.RuntimeModedef cleanupArcFM(): global app if app: app.Shutdown del app print "ArcFM shutdown"initializeArcFM()Shutdown script cleanupArcFM()

I am trying to upload output geotiff files to a folder on a remote site via SFTP from a FME Desktop workspace. The FTPCaller transformer supports the SFTP protocol and I make the assumption that uploading files to an empty folder should work. My GeoTiff files are first written using a FeatureWriter. The FTPCaller comes next and fetches the GeoTiff file with the "Upload from a File" transfer type. The translation fails with "Login denied" probably because there is a missing piece of info.Actually the process works fine on the same machine using Filezilla. I just needed to provide the RSA key to Filezilla in a PEM file and the connection + file transfer work like a charm.Of course I would like to allow FME to take care of this upload step without depending on Filezilla.How should I set up the authentication parameter in order to make this possible?The info that I provided to Filezilla to make the connection work is the foll

For some reason, I can't read in a date such as 02-JUL-08using %d-%b-%yIt says that %y is output only.Surely there must be a way to read two digit years.

Dear All,  I am trying to write some features in a versioned featureclass. Instead of writing it directly to the SDE.Default,I have created version in ArcGIS and I have set the FME output to write to that version and I have made sure you have Versioning set as your Transaction Type under Advanced settings.I have Run the FME workspace and it has come up with below error message.  I am not sure why this has come up. Please let me know if you are aware of this.  Error message:   An error occurred while attempting to store a row into the table 'ARCFM.Lamp_LV'. The error number from ArcObjects is: '-2147221230'. The error message from ArcObjects is: {}  The Zone of the assembly that failed was: MyComputer log4net:ERROR XmlHierarchyConfigurator: Appender named [MinerEventLogAppender] not found. log4net:ERROR XmlHierarchyConfigurator: Could not create Appender [Log4NetEventLogAppender] of type [log4net.Appen

Is there a way (or a script) that can turn off AUs when writing to SDE tables? I have tried the solutions from the below question and they didnt work for me:https://knowledge.safe.com/questions/95896/how-to-turn-off-arcfm-auto-updaters-using-pythonca.htmlI am looking to do this because I get an error when writing to the table from FME server but I dont get an error when running from FME Desktop. I am just trying to try any solution I can at this point.Thanks.

can anyone suggest me, how to recognise road edge using FME Transormers

I'm really struggling with the string functions in FME at the moment. I have a workbench reading JSON features from an API and I have one attribute where the results are in a list. The JSON extractor results the attributes like this:  ["Medium"] Or if there are multiple values, like so:["Easy","Advanced"] I want the results to be: MediumIntermediate,Easy I want to remove the brackets and quotes using a single transformer and can't figure out the formatting for my life! Currently I have 3 separate "string replacers", each one removing a single character, but there must be a better way...I don't mind using a REGEX expression if someone can figure it out. I'm also open to using a different type of JSON query to extract these values? If there's a way to get the attributes without the brackets and quotes? I also tried using the stri

I have created an FME workspace that return some validation messages in JSON. The output looks something like this:{  "Response" : {   "transaction" : {     "id" : "78234626376472399",     "transactionDetail" : {      "validationResult" : [        {         "testCode" : "1001",         "testResult" : "PASSED",        },        {         "testCode" : "1002",         "testResult" : "FAILED",  "failMessage" : "fail Message 1"        },        {         "testCode" : "1003",         "testResult" : "PASSED",        },        {         "testCode" : "1004",         "testResult" : "FAILED",

We are new to FME and just have FME server up and running now. We are in the process of moving some of our existing workflows that we have built using FME extension for ArcGIS and so far we're having success publishing. We have some workspaces that error when we try and run them because we reference Python for Esri 3.6+ or Python 2.7. So far these particular workspaces haven't really needed arcpy so we just changed the parameter in the workspace and republished and they ran ok. Our server is a single, standalone machine with all components running locally. A little about the machine: We have 8GB RAM, 40GB free space on disk right now, it's a virtual machine running on hyperflex with 1 socket and 2 virtual processors (2.39GHz). So now I'm wondering if we should install ArcGIS Pro and or ArcGIS Desktop (for python 2.7) on the FME server machine so we can allow our GIS team to migrate some of their arcpy scripts to FME that do use arcpy. It would help them manag

The LAS files are in different folders and unfortunately in each folder the Source ID is starting in 1, so in 100 folders I have 100 files with Source ID 1. I would like to keep all the other attributes but have an exclusive sequential number per each Sorce ID file.

Good morning to everyone!My purpose is to build a Workspace (father) able to divide in N equal subsets some zipped files located in a path, then pass every group to a Workspace runner that will call another dedicated Workspace (son) that will do the job I need.The question is: how can I parallelize this process?I mean, I have built the first Workspace (father) and it works quite well but unfortunately I'm able to process just a single Subset at a time (First Workspace Son), finished the first one the process pass to the second flow and so on, until the end.I would like to start all the Workspace runners simultaneously. Is it possible? How? Every Workspace (son) will write on a different Geodatabase.Thank you very much to everyone who will answer. P.S.FME v 2020.0 (Data Interoperability 2.6)I have uploaded a picture of the Father Workspace.

Hi Guys,I'm wondering how to set up a short list of coordinate systems by the new Manage attribute window. In fact I'm missing the Import-Button that has been there until FME 2020, when creating a Choice with Alias User Parameter. The Import-button now automatically opens up a reader defintion.  When I use the Coordinate Systems User Parameter type, no choice-list can be created.  Is it really impossible to complete this task or am I missing something obvious? (Hopefully the latter :-) ) Any hints are welcome! Thanks in advance

Source Origin: Multipolygon layerDestinity: SinglePoint Layer  If I use the CenterPointReplacer with the "Any Inside Point" mode checked the result is rejected.And if I use other of the two modes, the result is a singlepoint outside the ancient multipolygon layer, and I need only one point inside the ancient area.  Does anyone know the correct way to obtain it?

Hi,I was looking for the way to resolve geodatabase domains from a reader.It took me a while to find this post https://community.safe.com/s/question/0D54Q000080hOcnSAE/how-to-expose-a-file-geodatabase-domainFor me, Updating feature type solved the problem but I'd wish FME would give the user hint that he needs to do this feature type update.Here's the thing in more words :When you add a gdb feature class or table which has fields with domains, if you don't check the option "Resolve domains", the table is added with the codes, and that's all and that's normal.But then if you want the domains and in the parameters you check "Resolve domains", then you need to Update feature type to get the _resolved fields.I think the user should at least be getting a warning that h

hello there w want to extract some features from the dataset randomlyex: we have 300 features coming in we want to get only 160 from them randomly we trayed to use the sample, but it did work since its working base on the N rate Any suggestion Thanks  

I am using a Smallworld Edition of FME, version 2017. How do I use it to export internal objects and have it reference back to its world owner.

I have have been through my whole dataset and manually closed the lines in the hope that I could do a simple AreaBuilder but some areas are not being created. The yellow areas are the 'area' output port and the blue lines are the 'incomplete'. I want an area created for the section from the blue line to the edge of the yellow area. My workbench is shown below. The snapper has a distance of 1. TIA

am using Arcgis Pro and i have few feature classes with different symbologies for them. i want to see those data in cad with same symbologies.i saved the feature class to layer file and added in to fme . when i am writing it in to dwg i am not getting any symbology.Can any one help on this

Hi.I'm working on a project where I need to find points within a distance of each other and assign a value to each neighbor. I'm using a neighborfinder with "candidates only", blank number of neighbors to find, given max distance and the ID of each point is added to a list. The points are close together, so the same points will be found for each candidate.  What I'd like is to add a value to each of the closest candidates based on a attribute value on the feature. Do you have any a ideas on how to solve this? Torbjørn 

We have the following stack:FME reads XML, inserts in and deletes from SDE.Data in non versioned SDE on Azure SQL Server.ArcGIS Enterprise serving MapService based on SDE.Interal WebGIS using MapService.Most of this works fine but when we clean up large datasets it takes a long time to complete. What I know is mostly self-taught so I wonder if I missed something vital. The task is to delete records from 20ish quite big featureclasses where projectname = 'projectname'.What I do now:Using a FeatureReader, I read from all featureclasses using a where statement, reading only one feature.Now I know which featureclasses contain data from this specific project. Next I can use these features in a FeatureWriter, where I Row Selection = Columns ProjectName.I think this is the right thing to do, let the database do the work. I expect it does delete from featureclass where project

I'm using the excelstyler writing to excel feature writer. Its applying the formatting (highlight full row) except to some date cells it only applies it to those cells in first row rather than those in every row that meets the condition.

I have recently installed FME Server I have been working through some tutorials, and reviewing the examples installed on the server, to see if I can automate some things I currently do manually.  The first one I am working through is actually based on one of the tutorials in the server training material (Ex 3.3 here).  What I am hoping to achieve is that we can have an FME Server tool that the user can access, select from a list of arcgis online feature layers (things like watermains, property boundaries, etc), then the user can draw a polygon on a map to define the extents, and FME will output this data to the user, including ALL attributes within the selected Feature Layer. Currently I have the attached template, it

Hello, I have to integrate geopackages in PostGIS tables whose schemas are strictly defined. After a first loading of the tables, I restarted the processing with the same geopoackages and all the objects do not leave through the "Unchanged" port. On closer inspection, some numeric values are formatted differently: for example, 20 in the geopackage (read as Real64 by FME) and 20.0 in the PostGIS table (numeric 5,1). Some decimal numbers also exist in geopackages (2.5 for example). Can you explain to me how I can handle this problem. I looked with StringFormatter but am not sure which syntax to use. Thank you!
