Does anyone have any ideas on how to efficiently create a 3D feature similar to this image?(the cut away is just to help show the geometry, it will be completely circular)I can make a cylinder by buffering a circle and then extruding it vertically but the only idea I've had so far for this geometry is to layer a whole lot of circles on top of each other and dissolve them, which is taking a long time.

Hello FME community, I created a conversion process(FME workbench) that converts my collada file to citygml. Now I want to be able to convert all my collada files (as many as 8000) at once but I don't know how to achieve that.Could you please let me know how to proceed ? many thanks.

The attached plan is a sample of a longer street segment that was divided up so it would fit on a single sheet. Is it possible to identify and output the individual segments and output each to it's own file (like jpg). In this sample the output would be 3 image files, each containing the 3 different street segments.

I am working on a workflow that needs to be able to extract plots of land from the local government's database, rotate them to face to the North, and then show the plot of land on a viewport.I found out how to make the viewport, and I found out how to rotate the plot to the North.When I open up the viewports, I notice that the coordinates have shifted with the rotation.I tried setting up the coordinates of the plot in the workflow, but these settings don't seem to be saved.Any help or thoughts would be appreciated!  Example images:This is the viewport with the plots of land.What happens after rotation:The intended result:

Hello, I wanted to calculate RMSE between two DTMs. How can I do that?

I have 12 netCDF files downloaded from https://data.ceda.ac.uk/badc/ukmo-hadobs/data/insitu/MOHC/HadOBS/HadUK-Grid/v1.1.0.0/1km/tasmin/day/v20220310. Each contains 1km-1km grid values of the minimum temperature for each day of a specific month. I would like to create a single combined file that counts the number of days where the temperature was below zero. I've tried RasterExpressionEvaluator but I can't get it to generate anything sensible. Can anyone help please?

Hi , i have path file name in attribute C:\\*\\*\\*\\filename.dwgi would like to extract only the (filename.dwg) Please , I want to remove C:\\*\\*\\*\\Thanks in advance

Hello FME community, as I work a lot with raster data and File Raster Geodatabase, I noticed in the 2022.1 version of the FME desktop version that I can not clip raster data (aerial photos). Both the transformer "Clipper" and the option in the reader "Use Search Envelope" do not work. Neither as TIFF nor as raster GDB. In the 2021.1 FME desktop version it works without problems.  Does anyone know the problem?

Using AttributeManager to update 86,000 (existing) records using APN for key. Is this process optimized by FME? It takes a long time, and I assume it is N*N time. (Does the Reader iterate through each record, one at a time, then searching through all the records in the Writer to find the matching key?)

Hello again everyone, I have a question for anybody who's worked with passing JSON data in the body of a POST request for a webhook. I am working with a developer on a script to call FME server from an outside application and pass the needed JSON data in the body. She is using an AJAX script that looks somewhat like this: $.ajax({        url: <my server url with webhook token>,        method: 'POST',        data: {"A":"1",         "B":"2",        "C":"3",           },        dataType: "json",        success: function (response) {                             alert(JSON.stringify(response));                     },               error: function(data, errorThrown){                             alert('request failed :'+errorThrown);                             //d

I have pdfs with multiple pagesi have to split them up by a certain textstring (e.g. SS 66,16)This textstring is always nearly on the same coordinate on the page, so i can isolate them and write the text in a new attribute but how can i fanout them that i have all content right from one page (e.g. pdf_page_number 2) and the pdf is named after that textstring (SS 66,16.pdf) Greetz and cheers Franco

We have an IFMEFeature from type FME_GEOM_AGGREGATE.The window "Feature Information" in FME Desktop displays the IFMEMultipoint property with 299 parts of IFMEPoint.How can we get these multipoints in the writer plugin? If we call feature->numCoordinates() we got 598 but if we call numParts () or numVertices() we got the correct number of 299.And if we call feature->getAllCoordinates() we got a list of 598 coordinates, but only 299 of these are correct and the other ones consists of a point with coordinates (1, 1, 0). Where does this point (1,1,0) come from?The list of coordinates starts with1,1,0valid point1,1,0valid Point1,1,0....

I need to be able to read an existing geodatabase annotation feature class (regardless of whether it is populated or not) and get a value for the "Annotation created with new features" annotation feature class attribute. Is there a corresponding FME geodatabase format attribute? If there is, would FME properly set the geodatabase attribute if I used that format attribute on a schema feauture used to build a geodatabase?

I did a spatial join of two AGOL layers, one is a strip map and the other is parcel data with owner info. I merged the two and created a table with the owner information and its respective page number. Some parcels are on more than one page, however, and I'm trying to make a table that includes these records and doesn't just omit them (there should be an individual record for each parcel and every page it shows up on). I've been trying to use the Spatial Relator with Generate List checked, followed by a List Exploder but it is not working. Does anyone know of a better way to do this? Edit: There is no common attribute between the two layers.

Recently we installed FME server… And I’ve been banging around in it like a bull a China closet… Nothing is broken… just throwing up workbenches and trying to get things to process in the same way they are on FME Desktop. I’m having some success… but I feel its more like luck than “repeatable success”. I’ve looked on the Safe.com website and read through questions and articles… That helps some… but still needing a little more guidance…   What suggestions do you have? What guidelines/articles/manuals/reference material could you suggest? Here are some of the areas/errors where I’m struggling with…  Error connecting to Oracle database: message was `ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied'.

I try to run diffrent workspaces with a WorkspaceRunner. It works with a fullpath but not if I use a AttributeValue or a UserParameter fed by a pathReader. The ErrorMessage contains "An error occurred while evaluating a test parameter: @Tcl2 -- failed to evaluate expression `WorkspaceRunner ..." I run it on Windows 10 with FME 2022.1. I already added FME_Home to PATH environment. With FME 2019.2.x it worked fine. An Example Workspace is provided.   

What software do I need in order to use PhotoCoordinateExtractor on a computer. ?

Hello, I am pretty new to all of this, so I am not even sure in which category to post my question. I have created a small FME Workspace containing a Reprojector. Now I want to include this tool into a Python Script already containing different other functions, and it should be possible to select which data to transform as well as the coordinate systems used. I tried to use the FMEWorkspaceRunner(), but it is only possible to state the Source and Destination Dataset, not to use the FMEReprojector.setCoordinateSystems() funktion. The same goes for calling the workspace over the command prompt with fme.exe it only accepts parameters for source and destination. As the workspace contains some other elements as well I also want to use the existing workspace and not to create reader, writer and all fmeobjects in the python skript every time the function is called.

I am using AttributeManager to write a Conditional Statement. I was wondering what other Transformers can I use that allow for Conditional Statements? I can achieve what I want using AttributeManager, as shown here. But, I am looking for alternatives other than AttributeManager to help me hone my FME skills.

I was watching the  OpenAI GPT-3 seminar the other day and the presenters had some magic turned on that allowed them to inspect transformers without attaching the usual inspectors. See image for a better explanation of what I am after. How do I turn on this feature/s? 

Hello FME Community,I want to control which records have no date format.Does anyone know how I can check whether data records have been saved correctly as dates.

Fme serverdesktop version: 2022.1 But if no features reach the writer then I get no summary output. In what way can I solve this dilemma?  The image I provided is not of the workspace itself, but it shows the problem.

I have an address field with an address value of 1244 Deep Creek RoadI want to use the AttributeSplitter to separate this value in a List so it comes out like this List{0} = 1244List{1} = Deep CreekList{2} = Road My question:What delimiter do I need to use that would split the 1244 into a separate list, but keep the "Deep Creek" together in List{1}? (Note that there are other streets with two names, I use "Deep Creek" as an example)

I can't seem to find this mentioned in the documentation or on the community posts
