On this picture, i have a circle which contain a polygon.I would like to know how i can obtain this circle when i have the coordinates like in this picture.The circle doen't pass by all the points.Any tips and trick ?Thanks

Hi,I am wanting to upload files to an instance of NextCloud as part of a distribution service for an department; this would consist of uploading a zipped folder/files to nextcloud, before emailing a link with the data (with shared permissions) to the requester.I am running FME Desktop 2020.0.3.0, I am able to figure out how to download via the HTTPCaller (GET with specific URLs), but uploading (PUT or POST) does not work.Has anyone figured out how to utilize HTTPCaller with NextCloud fully?Thanks! https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/20/user_manual/en/files/access_webdav.html

What the differences between XML and AIXM?

Hello, I want to select building polygons that are completely contained by an agglomeration boundary polygon - I have been trying this with SpatialRelator and SpatialFilter, however whatever setting I try the transformers always seems to split the buildings that cross over the agglomeration boundary, separating them into two features. Really, what I am attempting to do is just filter through those building polygons that are completely contained within the agglomeration boundary, and disregard those that are partially within and partially outside of it.  Appreciate any advice on how to facilitate this.

Hello community, I have a street dataset with 2139 records, with each one being a line (for those in UK LAs, note that it is the LSG). It includes a field called ‘street or numbered street’.  For 2040 of the records the value in the ‘street or numbered street’ field is a named street (e.g.: Acacia Avenue). For 28 of the records the value in the ‘street or numbered street’ field is an A road (e.g.: A312). For 14 of the records the value in the ‘street or numbered street’ field is an B road (e.g.: B204). For 57 of the records the value in the ‘street or numbered street field is an C road (e.g.: C5840044).  I want to filter out the three separate road types: A roads, B roads and C roads. I want to ignore the 2040 named street records.  What’s the best way to do this? A filter? Query via the Text Editor within the Writer? What would the code be?

I have a series of 2D polygons with attributes for slope and aspect. I want to rotate them about a horizontal plane (using a 3DRotator) so that they become 3D shapes with these properties of slope and aspect. However, I want the spatial extent of the shape to stay the same, i.e. if I were to force it to 2D them again, they would look identical to how they did before. Effectively, this means that all of the vertices need to be elevated/dropped in the vertical plane. This is not so much a rotation as a stretch. As an example, if the polygon has a slope attribute of 80 degrees, by the time the shape has been made into a 3D sloping polygon, the planar extent of the shape would be much smaller and, if it were forced to 2D again, it would be also much smaller. The higher the "slope" value, the more the shape would shrink in its planar extent. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to achieve this? I effectively want the reverse of a 2D forcer.

Anyone know why FME when trying to run a workbench it just hangs? Sometimes I can stop and start the workbench and it runs but it just says it is starting translation and stays like this and doesn't run anything. It was working this morning but now it doesn't want to play ball.

I have read in data from an ArcSDE database and I would like to update data layers on ArcGIS Enterprise with this data. I am coming across two issues: 1 - My workbench FAILS with the following error: ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Writer: 'addResults' error for a feature in 'LAYER NAME'. The error code from the server was '10500' and the message was: 'Database error has occurred.'ArcGIS Portal Feature Service Writer: 0 features successfully written to 'LAYER NAME', but the server rejected the 100 features in the last request due to errors. See warnings above. Aborting translation2 - My workflow successfully completes BUT data is only truncated and no data is written onto the ArcGIS Portal data layer, so the layer is empty. The translation log says 'Total Features Written: 0' with no errors or warnings.  I am using 'Writer Mode: INSERT' (also tested with UPDATE but sti

I am attempting to build schema features, with coded value domains, from a schema specification in Excel and to write them out to geodatabase with a dynamic writer. I am almost there, but I am missing something, and I do not understand the structure and requirements for schema features quite deeply enough to solve the problem. I have read through the set of Dynamic Workflow tutorials and other pages, like Deriving Destination Schema from Schema Feature, but none of them quiiite go far enough to address my situation. As I am building and writing out coded value domains, I am specifying the fme_format_short_name (= GEODATABASE_FILE) attribute on the schema features and including the attribute{}.native_data_type on all attributes in the list, with the value in the required "coded_domain( ... )" in the case of attributes with a domain. I also want to include the attribute alias in the attribute{} list. Finally, I have set fme_geometry{0} accordingly for each

Hi all,  I am trying to log specific messages during a translation, then add these messages to an email (using the Emailer) at the end of the process. I set up a logger with my message, then later down the process run the LogMessageStreamer to try and access the previous logger messages. However, nothing is coming through. Does anyone know what settings I should configure to get this to work? I have ensured that I'm running the logger in the same run as the LogMessageStreamer. Seems like a powerful tool...if it works. 

Hi, I want to run a bat file on fme server. It work perfectly on fme workbench, but I get this message when I run it on fme server : SystemCaller_6: Failed to Execute `\\\\"filedirectory"\\"mybatfile".bat' I saw this post and tried the double quotes, but got the same result. https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/303225/how-to-run-a-batch-file-by-fme-server Is there anything else I can try? Thank you, Ian

Is there a way to list out which published workbenches have 1 or more webhooks set up, and if so, when the token for each webhook expires?

Hello FME'ers, Welcome to What's Up Wednesday. A Big Thank You...I have to start by saying thank you to all the folk I interacted with at the recent FMEUC22. I'm overwhelmed by your love and positive feedback. As the song says, "I second that emotion"!  My only regret is it was such a crazy week that I couldn't spend as much time with each of you as I wanted.   Oh, and thanks to those who smiled and indulged me as I tried out my Swedish! I'll be better next time. Another thing for next time, jag behöver bekvämare skor! Conference Follow UpsIt takes a while to get the recordings taken at the conference, so expect presentations to start to appear

It is better, if Safe software application login process is unique. Since, login process was not there for attempting for certificate exams. It is asking mail and other details. Instead, it would be better, if profile is created uniquely for desktop and server

Checking to see is getadmin.vbs is a part of the software package. With wscript.exe running it executed a getadmin.vbs.

Hello all, I'm new to fme and I'm trying to build a fairly easy model I think. I have a list of PDF files in a folder in Windows Explorer. I want to change the name of these files and then write them to another folder. I want to automate this and it all still works. The only problem is that I want to add user parameters so that every time I want to overwrite PDF files to another folder with a drop down menu it can be indicated to which specific folder the PDF files should be written. Everything works until I add these parameters. Then fme doesn't seem to be able to find the target folder anymore. Does anyone have any idea how this could happen? 

My structure : FME 2017 and ArcMap 10.8.1

I'm trying to change certain attributes of a dgn and then write back to a new dgn.For example, I changed the insertion points of the cells using the attribute manager. Unfortunately, the changes are not written to the new dgn. What could be the problem? Thanks.

Does Safe have plans to implement a GUI for FME Server that is similar to AGOL, that is, a map where you can add layers and use tools to work on the data? Seems there is no alternative to Esri web technology, which is VERY $$.

Hi, I want to change the vertical datum of a MNT from gvd28 to gvd2013. The input and the output are projected in NAD83 MTM7. I am using the following transformersThe output tif seems correct except for some artifacts (white horizontal lines) that appear in the imageWhat can be the cause of those artifacts? Should I care? Thanks for your input!

While opening up a transformer in a FME workbench (used through the interoperability extension in ArcGIS Pro), the work closed suddenly, and the .fmw is now completely gone. When I attempted to select it in 'recent workspaces' when opening FME it informed me it doesn't exist (cue mini heart attack). Right now all I have is a RECOVER file in my folder, and I'm really hoping this can recover my project since it was a pretty time-intensive endeavor. Can the RECOVER file be used to bring back that workspace? Is there any other way to recover it?

Hi there, I'm sorry if I have overlooked the answer to a similar question in this forum. I could not find such a question... When executing the FME workflow from the command line, there is a entry for every 500 features that the reader has processed. With some large data to process, this can amount to many lines in the command prompt window. I cannot scroll up infinitely in this window and it's also not easy to scroll these vast amount of lines if you need to see some other logged output before the FME was started.  Is there a way to configure the logging output so that it will not produce this vast amount of lines? A simple solution could be specifying the logging interval (e.g. increase 500 to 5000) .As an ideal scenario, the Reader-logging is by default using only one line in the CMD window and is always overwriting itself until the next process in the FME workbench starts when normal logging is to resume with starting on a new li

Recently started using FME (2020.2.3.0 now, but will switch soon to 2022) and was struggling with giving parameters as input for "Feature Types to Read" for "FeatureReader". Input:TGT_SCHEMA = "DATALAKE"TGT_TABLE="GEODATA"$(TGT_SCHEMA).$(TGT_TABLE) is given as input to "Feature Types to Read". Expected behaviour:I want FeatureReader to read the schema and table from parameters to become '"DATALAKE"."GEODATA"'. Actual behaviour:Snowflake Non-Spatial Reader: Error reading schema for table '$(TGT_SCHEMA).$(TGT_TABLE)'.
