Question

I want to calculate distance from aspect and slope on a raster. Both raster have same resolution. Could someone help on this? I am novice on raster dataset in FME. Thank you in advance.

I'm struggling to get what you mean by "distance"... Can you explain the problem in a bit more depth?

I am try to distance from attached formula.

I think I follow with what you're trying to achieve... Are you wanting to get the length of a line overlaid on a 3d surface?

 

If thats the case there is a much easier approach, assuming that you have a DEM of the area (this wouldve been used to derive the slope and aspect)

 

Use your DEM to create a surface, then using the SurfaceDraper, drape the line features over the surface so they have Z values, then use a length calculator with the dimensions set to 3 to calculate your length
