I wanted to create a custom new projection system with below ESRI WKT string using the FME online tool and getting " FME Data Streaming Service Failed to Complete" error.

 

PROJCSC"Exelon_Custom_NAD83",

GEOGCSC"GCS_North_American_1983",

DATUMU"D_North_American_1983",

SPHEROIDI"GRS_1980",6378137.0,298.257222101]],

PRIMEME"Greenwich",0.0],

UNITI"Degree",0.0174532925199433]],

PROJECTIONO"Lambert_Conformal_Conic"],

PARAMETERE"False_Easting",40000000.0],

PARAMETERE"False_Northing",0.0],

PARAMETERE"Central_Meridian",-77.0],

PARAMETERE"Standard_Parallel_1",38.18],

PARAMETERE"Standard_Parallel_2",39.27],

PARAMETERE"Latitude_Of_Origin",37.4],

UNITI"Centimeter",0.01]]

 

I have tried earlier this online tool to create the same projection system and it did created a projection system.

 

I have the custom_projection.prj file from the ESRI and tried to place it under <MyDocuments>\\FME\\CoordinateSystems folder and re-started FME but the newly created projection system is not available under Tools->Browse Coordinate Systems

 

My goal is to create the above custom projection system and use it in FME Writer for ESRI File Geo database.

 

Can you please help me how to resolve this issue?

P.S. By the way I did refer the FME documentation.

Hi @ganeshsomesula​ ,

I took a look at the backend for this service and I believe the error you are getting is a result of putting "Exelon_Custom_NAD83" in the FME Coordinate System box.

Can you please try submitting with only in the Esri WKT:

Custom_coordinate_system 

Then you can submit and proceed to the definition page. On the definition page you can fill in the appropriate information to create the FME coordinate system definition files required to put in the appropriate FME folders.

Hi,

 

Thanks for the quick support.

 

I have tried without the FME Coordinate System and it was successful and I could able to download the corresponding .FME projection file system.

 

Earlier I was using the .PRJ file from ESRI and it didn't reflected in FME and realized that FME workbench will pickup the .FME file. With the downloaded file i am able to use the custom projection system in FME.

Thanks for the support.

 

Regards,

Ganesh
