Regarding conversion of Geojson format buildings to cesium 3D tiles

I am facing issue with conversion of geojson data to cesium 3D tiles. I have tried converting geojson to cesium 3D tiles using FME software. When I convert using FME, some of the faces of buildings are missing (shown in the attached images). Kindly guide me if something missing in that conversion.I have attached images of geojson data as well as cesium 3d tileset data from all sides of the building.

Is it possible to convert or export an ArcGIS Online/Portal web map into a pdf file in FME?

I would consider do this using ArcGIS python API, but wondering if FME can handle this, which would save me a lot of time and effort.

Has anyone had problems trying to 'fit' a raster map image into Bounding Box with PDFpageformatter?

I have quite a complex workbench which works well apart from one thing. I need to pass a raster map and point to the same object in each page in PDFpageformatter. I created a Bounding Box to try to set the position and expected the raster and point to 'fit' into this. However the position seems to shift as the pages go on. See attachments. It seems to be basing the position on the overall combined raster footprint rather than the Bounding Box. I hope that makes sense? I've attached a snippet of my workbench for info.

Anything changed about FME_SQL_DELIMITER in FME 2020.2? SQL Statement that ran fine in 2018 fails in 2020.2,

On the last leg of migration to FME 2020 from 2018. Was able to clean up a lot of legacy junk - whew! and had a chance to upgrade all relevant workspaces in the process - whoohoo! Starting with a clean slate so to speak. But now I've run into an issue with a SQL Executor that runs some SProc's and does some updates/inserts. This was working with no issues in 2018. Now it complains about the semi-colons:Semicolons detected in SQL. May need to use FME_SQL_DELIMITER keyword to specify a delimiter.Then it fails with:Microsoft SQL Server Non-Spatial Reader: Query failed, possibly due to a malformed statement. Again, I have to ask: anything change from 2018 to 2020 as it pertains to FME_SQL_DELIMITER? Do I have to reformat my statement for Server? Desktop 2020 didn't seem to bother complaining about it. Thanks. Running MS SQL 2017. FME Desktop/Server 2020.2.

Read in a web map with its symbology? (ArcGIS Online / Esri REST Service)

I need to use FME to generate .pdf & .jpg project location maps where the project boundaries are drawn in color and the rest of the map is in grey scale. An example output would be:  The issue I am encountering right off is that while FME can read in an ArcGIS Online map or ArcServer Map Service (REST), it doesn't appear that FME is able to read in all of the map symbology for the various layers that I hope to use as a basemap (I have all of the "additional attributes to expose" checked).   I had anticipated there being an issue with reading in text labeling, however I assumed that FME would read in all the layer symbology just fine. I tested this with a tiled web map as well and FME does not read in that symbology either. I am hoping that I will only need to manually symbolize my project boundary layer in FME while FME automatically reads in the unique symbology for each of the basemap layers. Is there a way to do this? I looked at an FME article on Creating PDF Cart

How to explode polygon that contains arcs and lines?

I would like to explode a polygon containing lines and arcs into its parts and preserve the arcs. I am reading an autocad drawing and I tried the chopper transformer but it chopped the arc into line segments which is not what I need. Has anyone done this before?

I would like to know the following: Extracting metadata from gml-file and use this metadata to build 3D-ojects. Position the 3D objects acording to the metadata and style them.

Dear FME-team/ community,I have a question concerning a gml-file. I am working on a project creating an app with an interactive map. I downloaded several geo-datasets from the German government. One of the datasets I downloaded is a gml-file. The gml-file comes with a xsd-file. Inside the gml-file are information about trees located in Hamburg. One can see the exact location of the trees with coordinates, the with of the trunk, the age of the tree and many other data. My question now is, if it is possible to extract the information about the width and height of the trees and render the trees into one fbx-file with the right locations of the trees. Additionally it would be nice to color the trees according to its ages. If the rendering of the trees according to its sizes is not possible, it would theoretically also be an option to just scatter ready-made tree models in the right positions. I would be very happy if you could help me with this problem.Thank you very much in advance! With

Using Choice multiple paramater in an SQL executor where statement

Hi,i am trying to pass some values from a choice multiple into an sql executor as a published parameter ('$(Name)'). I can get it to work by using something like this but its not very efficient.select Namefrom Nametablewhere '$(Name)' LIKE '%'+ columnName +'%' i have done this manually: where columnName in (Andrew, David)It works alot faster than the above but i cant get it to populate and run from the published parameter. this wont work columnName =  '$(Name)' as it translates into columnName = 'Andrew David' so there will never be a match as the name in column will be Andrew or David. Any help or pointers would be appreciated. Thanks, Andrew
