Hi, I have an angular application which create files(eg:auto cad files). I need to view these files inside the application after generating . Is it possible to integrate FME inside an angular project? If Could you please provide documentation link of it.

Is it possible to split 1 polygon equally into 5 sub polygons based on point density and not area? For Example there is 100,000 points inside a polygon and I would like to split the polygon into 5 parts each part containing ~20,000 points (it doesn't need to be exactly 20,000 but the points need to be spatially in the same area).  

I am encountering the following error. Can anyone tell me how to fix it? 2020-10-22 10:24:56| 0.9| 0.4|ERROR |Python Exception <ImportError>: this version of pandas is incompatible with numpy < 1.15.4your numpy version is 1.15.1.Please upgrade numpy to >= 1.15.4 to use this pandas version

Where (what path) to place the *.fme-file file on FME Server for to use a custom coordinate system in workspaces?Thanks.

I have a shapefile with a few thousand points. I would like to be able to remove points that are too close or overlapping on each other. Usually, the points should be at a minimum of 1 meter of each other. If I have points that are exactly at the same coordinates or within let's say 0.8 meter, I would like to keep only the point with the lowest value into the OBJECTID attribute. Any idea of which transformer I should use ? Thank you. Mathieu.

We've had a strange behaviour importing data using FME Quick Translator. One user (Admin) had the following entry in the log file when he experienced wrong string encoding in the target database:2021-06-29 22:11:16|  3.5| 0.0|INFORM|Shapefile reader: Reading dataset with encoding 'windows-1252' as determined by 'System Encoding as Fallback' Another user got the right encoding in the target database and the same line number of the log output instead showed:2021-06-30 00:32:56|  3.0| 0.0|INFORM|Shapefile reader: Reading dataset with encoding 'UTF-8' as determined by 'Codepage File'  Both users could read the .CPG Codepage File without a problem, but it turned out that the first user did not have "full control" access to the .CPG file which lies next to the .SHP shapefile.As soon as we gave him "full control" access to that file the log output regarding the encoding was the same. Seems to me as if FME (Quick Translator) tries to excl

Folks, I have a constructed attribute that is the filter i want - in the form (FieldA = 'x' AND FIELDB > y AND FIELDC between a and b) etc. I want to to return the value where this filter is both TRUE and also get where NOT TRUE.  I can see i could do this via writing an inline Querier - but this means i need to update the Filter to its inverse to handle the NOT TRUE part.Is there any way i can hand an attribute to a tester or TestFilter as the argument - so i can get both sets? I know i could rebuild the logic of the Filter WITHIN a testfilter- but i already have the filter built and its quite complicated logic. Better if i could just run that prebuilt logic in a TestFilter. 

I am working with highway paths with point values and path lenths in kilometers.

Is there a possibility to use group by on a NeighbourhoodPairFinder? I would like to find two closest points to a point (in the same file) and get the resulting lines to combine (in a effort to draw lines through a set of points).  The points are on either side of a road and they must not crisscross. I do not want to use the road centerline file (as spatial filter). I have an attribute (side of road) and would like to find the points based on this group by however, the NeighborhoodPaitFinder does not have this. Only the NeighborFinder has this.

Hello,I’m trying to work with Cordex NetCDF files (Europe).The main, challenging, issue I’m facing is the rotation of coordinates used by Cordex.Googling and trying for some days I found a Proj4 string that seems to work. At least it works in a python caller with pyproj lib.  crsROT = CRS("+proj=ob_tran +o_proj=longlat +o_lon_p=-162 +o_lat_p=39.25 +lon_0=180 +to_meter=0.01745329")crs4326 = CRS('EPSG:4326')x=feature.getCoordinate(0)transformer = Transformer.from_crs(crs4326, crsROT)p1 = transformer.transform(x[1], x[0]) The process is understandably very slow. Some improvement can be applied working with list of coordinates, but I hope FME can provide some better standard solutions.I put the same Proj4 string in a PROJReprojector. Also considering that working with raster and then to clip the desired region is faster. The parameters I’m using are in the attached image.Unfortunately, the results are completely different. Both applying the transformer to vector or Raster

Hi, I installed FME Desktop 2021 and the Reader from Arcgis Portal can not generate the Token.   I generate the token externally and it is fine the user an password are fine. I tested with The GIS Administrator who has all privileges and I get the same result.  The connection running the FME a 2020.1 in another machine is fine.  How can make it work? Thanks.   

Original e57 is exported from Recap with appropriatecoordinate system assigned. Comes out in slices even if I'm just reading and writing file without any transformations. Another symptom is that the file size is drastically reduced upon export. I've just recently started getting into the world of FME, so most probably doing something fundamentally wrong.  Would appreciate any help.

I don't see any options for the MSWordStyler to layout the page to be Landscape instead of Portrait. Is there a way to make a page that I'm writing to a MS Word file to be Landscape, similar to the options in PDFPageFormatter?

spreadsheets together and then insert them into the two inputs. Is there a way I can do this merge via FME by selecting all the worksheets I want merged? As currently it takes 1hour+ to do this manually! Also I would love to have the ability to extract multiple jpg image filepaths from multiple folders in one go. Is there a way i can just select a folder and say I want all jpg image filepaths extracted from all folders within? I have the ability to do this in Command Prompt but it takes a long time and I know FME would be much faster if it can do it. Any help would be very much appreciated, thank you

Thank you very much in advance for your help :) with kind regardsChristian Lendl

When I add a Reader in FME Workbench 2019.2, I cannot connect to a PostgreSQL FDW (Foreign Data Wrapper). I can select (check) the FDW schema, but I cannot open the list of tables. (The FDW is in a PostgreSQL table and I can access the PostgreSQL schemas just fine.) DataGrip can open the FDW schema and its tables just fine using the exact same connection (host, database, username, and password). There seems to be almost nothing in Google about FME and PostgreSQL FDW. Is it impossible, or is it just too obvious for me to figure out?

Hi I want to combine a folder of geotiffs satellite imagery files together in a row into a single geotiff. I dont need the coordinate sys of the geotiff output, just the pixels and its value to be stitched together. Basically trying to do the same as this question https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30227466/combine-several-images-horizontally-with-pythonTried the solutions posted there but the python pillow library does not seem to read geotifsAnyone have an ideas on how to do this?Thanks

I have attachments stored as blobs in an Esri File Geodatabase that I am using RasterReplacer to save them as JPGs. When viewing the photos through ArcMap the orientation is correct. However once they run through FME and RasterReplacer saves them as JPGs, some of them are up side down. Anybody have any thoughts on this?

I have a user parameter configured as follows:My user selects about 200MB worth of JPG photos to upload and have processed. In doing so, he gets the following error: This is a user that is working in the field and likely has poor connection quality. However, there is a lot of data to upload. If I attempt an upload with OneDrive or a similar service, it will typically recover/resume an upload as connection issues occur. I do not know if connection issues are what is happening here because the error tells him nothing.  Is there a way to dig deeper into the reason behind this issue? Because the workspace never gets a chance to run, I don't know how to diagnose this or develop around it. If my assumption that poor connection quality coupled with a high amount of data is the issue... Do you have any suggestions as to how to go about solving it? Besides the obvious "wait for a better connection", or "use smaller batches".  Thank you

When I clip a Line with the clipper transformer I get a multipart line with one common length, and I need to split It in singlepart line features and for each line a length.

Hello I do an excel with FME and I want to add a title to my summary table. How can I do with FME ? Thank you

Hi, I am using FME Desktop 2020.0 and as soon as I try to write into a FGDB, FME crashes with this error meassage: "An error occurred while attempting to create the feature class 'unmerged_transport'. The error number from ArcObjects is: '-2147024893'. The error message from ArcObjects is: {FDO error: -2147024893} A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above for details" Same workbenches working fine on other PCs. We installed FME and ArcGIS new on my PC but the problem ist still there. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Hi. I have a polygon dataset showing planning applications. I want to find out if any of the polygons intersect others in the same feature class. I have tried feeing the data into the are on area overlayer twice and it has come up with some results however, it says in the instructions there should be no self intersections within the layer, so I think I need a different transformer Has anyone got any suggestions please?

I created an FME server App that runs a workspace. The workspace generates a Zip file but I could not work out how to set it as an output so I could define it as the download content. As a work around I put in a FileCopy writer to simply make a copy of the zip file as that transformer is recognised as an output when publishing to the server. It has worked once as far as I can tell but in most cases when I run it I just get 'Completed' but no download link. It is odd because there are no errors in the log when I look at the completed process. How do I ensure that a Server App returns an error (if appropriate) or ensure the Download URL is always shown?

Hi I am new to FME, and just trying to create a simple flow where I take to inpust from ms sql database and store the result in another ms sql database.The qyery for the jin of these to look like (pseudo code) select ....FROM dbo.GLWHERE COMPANY = 1 AND ACCOUNTING_YEAR = 2021 AND TEXT <> 'Project'AND CODE_f IN (SELECT PROJECT_ID FROM dbo.PROJECT WHERE COMPANY = 1 AND PROJECT_GROUP IN (10,30)) Running in query editor I get the correct result.But when trying to use FME deskltop and transformer as tester and featurejoiner I get a 2x result.So what transformer should I use ? Thanks for your help Dan
