I'm trying to create a series of adjacent wedges from a central point. I have built a workflow that builds one wedge (polygon) then I'm attempting to use the Rotator to create a new wedge at every 1.8 degree rotation 200 times to encompass a full 360 degrees. I suspect there is a simpler method but this is what I have done so far. I'm using the XY-MM coordinate system. Any thoughts on the best way to accomplish this task? Thank you,Gil

Hi! I want to put points on lines with an interval of x (for example 100m) meters. I tried several ways to do that. (I beggin with FME). 1) I used the lenghtCalculator, then calculate how many points I can put in the line for 100m interval @int(@Value(_length)/100) , add a counter, copy the points distance attribute and get number of copy linked with the "cloner",copy the number of each lines*100, calculate at what lenght put the point @int(@Value(_length)-@Value(_copy)) AND snipper ! The problem with that solution is the "cloner", I have a VERY big database and it's make too much geometry... Is there a way to do it without touching or adding the geometry? Or maybe with a formula, ... python caller ?  2) I tried other ways too, like the chopper and the vertex, but it's not a strict interval of 100meters like this. 3) I also tried the method with measure generator, linedivider and measure extractor.. but it's deleating me some of my lines cause of invalid

I am working on creating a geodatabase made up of multiple types of proformas, a total of 67 different proformas. The proformas contact collected survey data of differing species and spatial data.

Good Morning:We are trying to transform autocade dwg files to GeoTIFF. The log indicates that the 17,000 features are read except for the raster feature. Thus it fails when we try to write during the conversion.I've attached the read log and the failure to read the raster

I have a .dgn model that I am converting to a tileset but some of the input is just lines that I should 'fill' (see image attached). My initial though process was:Create areas from them, with the config from the imagesThen pass it through a MesbuilderBut what I'm getting from the AreaBuilder and the Meshbuilder is off (images attached)I am not sure what's wrong, I tried playing around with the snapping tolerance value in areabuilder but the higher it got the worse it looked. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance!

I get an error when I use the WMS reader. I add the the URL as: "https://wms.abc/ServicesWhen /abc.Proxy/wmsserver.ashx?password=yyy&username=xxx" That works, as I can see the layers from which I chose the one I want to load in. I dont select any "Network Authentication" option. I leave the Map options as get filled out from WMSs metadata. After pressing OK, the reader is successfully shown on my canvas.  When i want to run this reader, without having it connected to anything, it stops with a fatal error. I can see it made a WMS URL, where the username and password are used at the start and also end of the URL. That is also failing if I place it in a browser. But just by removing the closing un/pw, it all works in the browser.  Does anyone know what induces this double credential issue?   https://wms.abc/Services/abc.Proxy/wmsserver.ashx?username=xxx&password=yyy&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=DK-DDOland1995_80cm_UTM32ETRS89&

Currently, I'm seeing all files uploaded as 'application/octet-stream'. Not that this is a terrible failure, but I'm trying to respond to uploads in the bucket with cloud functions that will follow the content-type as best as possible to determine subsequent actions.  I'll use file extensions for now.

Does FME support writing to Citrix Sharefile?

Weirdest behavior, I have a 'pipeline' with a set of transformers that do the job by themselves without parameters, let's call this the 'prototype' pipeline.I can copy this prototype pipeline into any workflow, it will work just fine, until I remove this pipelines starter and it starts behaving different.This prototype pipeline has a snakegrid transformer at the end, with the starter behind the pipeline I get the output, if this prototype is connected to another pipeline the attributes arrive to the snakegrid transformer but they don't go further from there. This seems to me like a bug because the prototype pipeline has no variables in it, everything is hardcoded and is working by itself so connecting it at the end of something else shouldnt be the problem, but it is. Any advice?

I have an excel file with many sheets. I need to process each sheet separately. How would I go about doing this?

So I got a dataset, floorID and Unit Number. Here is what I want to do.  For each of the floorID (meaning each floor), the unit number should start from 0001 to the max number in sequence. For instance, in my example, there are 4 floor ID "level1", the unit should be 0001-0004. In contrast, there are 3 floor ID "level2", so the unit should be 0001-0003. In my case, the input of floorID and unit number is unknown. But I want to find out the missing unit numbers or wrong input unit numbers. Could someone guide me how to work in this case? I have attached the correct and wrong output in here. Oh, also, I have another question. This is the sample of the data1-1, 1-2, 1-32-1, 2-2If I want to see if the incoming input is within this value, might I ask what kind of transformer should I use? Do I need to input these values manually? Thank you very much and sorry for all the questions. Zach 

Hello, i'm trying to read a geopackage via the featurereader and performing a where clause to read only the necessary data - it's not working! is there a known problem with fme 2020 and the featurereader with geopackage?

Hello, New to using web services here. I am trying to use oauth2 login to Portal ArcGIS Server feature service on a specific layer index and use the REST Query function to pass in a couple of parameters and then have the output to json format.  For instance this is the ArcGIS Server Feature Service on a particular feature layer (e.g. index 3) https://ppp-snoopy.com/un/rest/services/SnoopyUN_Network/FeatureServer/3  Then pass in the string query parameters according to this reference page Query (Feature Service)—ArcGIS REST APIs | ArcGIS Developers  where: GUID = 'abc1234xyz'gdbVersion : Snoopy.Surveyoutfields : objectid, GUIDf: json I am trying use HTTP Caller to access the ArcGIS Server feature service using NTLM authentication and got this error :{"error":{"code":499,"message":"Token Required","details":[]}} I also tried to use direct URL to the ArcGIS Server Feature Service (without Portal) and no luck.  Any help wo

I want to know if there's a way to Generalize (in 3D) a 3D line. Common Generalizer tools are for 2D lines. But is a 3D Genralizer tool exist? I mean if I want to generalize a 3D line from a Z tolerance. Imagine a 3D polyline with ups and downs and I want to smooth or generalize the line. And the resulting line is within 20cm (in 3D) from the original 3D line. Thanks, Frank

Sorry Team, This is not one question.  I have one fme file, which writes (conventional writers)to 50 PostGIS tables. I need table names and total features written counts from fme.Since I am writing to a staging database, I need to do validation of counts, before making / swapping these tables as the main tables for the application.  once I am okay with the previous counts(count from the previous run) and current counts(comparing prev run with the current fme run), we are copying the tables to the main DB. table1 100000table2 50table3 6895698....like this to write these info (table_name , total_count)to one more postgres table ie fme_written_status table. I know our feature writer does this job, but I need to replace all the writers. summary port gives this output with total_features_written.But not one feature writer, I need 50 separate feature writers. because summary port gives total, not table-wise. can I replace all normal writers to feature writer transformers in one go? can I ac

I have selected ~50 records from a shapefile of ~5.5 million records using a column of unique reference numbers. The unique reference numbers are stored in a CSV. I have used FeatureJoiner to join the CSV and shapefile.  The resulting joined records have been correctly selected but the values in final two columns containing the X and Y coordinates have been altered when viewed in the visual preview. Where in the workspace has the change taken place?

You can export/import database connections in FMEworkbench (as xml or enc-file), wouldn*t it be nice to have the same function in FME server? Will we see it soon?

Hello, Can someone explain to me why is JSONFragmenter returning json_type = object instead of json_polygon? And how to adjust anything to get valid json_polygon? Parameters of JSONFragmenter: JSONFragmenter returns: Usually for this kind of JSON data I get (with correct geometry): JSON data for correct return is given as attachment, as well as the incorect one.

Hello there, So I have bunch of points and lines in my database. For the final output, I would like to extract the points/line (possibly the name) that cannot fullfill the following criteria. 1) The points MUST touch the lines, but it can have a tolerance of 1m to the closest lines.2) The starting and ending of the lines MUST have points.  So the sample shows that points 1-6 are correct, while the points 7-9 and the line below (C) are not correct. It is because the line C does not have the starting and ending points. Also, the points 7-9 do not contain lines within 1m buffer.Might I ask what kind of transformers I can use? I am not very good at FME and hopefully someone can give me a hand.Thank you very much. Zach

Hello #FMECommunity!Here is the news about FME for the week ending 22nd October. Community Activities: Random Acts of TransformationSo during our Community Webinar yesterday (depending on where you are and what your 'yesterday' is) Dale and I tried our hand at Random Acts of Transformation (RAOT) which is where we pick a transformer at random and try to explain it in as much detail as we can, with some lesser-known tips and tricks. Fate dealt us an XML-based transformer as our first go, which was a bit rocky, but then we gave a good description of the FeatureMerger transformer and that was a lot better. You can find just that section of the webinar on YouTube, where I hope to post more of these in the future. Community Activities: GeoguessrWe're nearing the end of the Geoguessr subscription (about 7-10 days remaining) and many users are having fun with this:  We still have a few open spots if you want to play, so let me know. Community Activities: Postcard ExchangeSo while

Hi all, Can someone tell me what the fme.uuid file is for when activating a Floating License and what the content means? Kind Regards, Krien Guijt

Hi again, I would like to change my string containing "100000,00" to "100 000,00E". In other words, adding a space and an E in the string. I can not seem to find an easy solution for this. Thanks in advance!

HI. I have one point layer that contains residential locations. The second layer contains the location of fast food outlets. I want to create a distance weighted count of nearby fast food outlets such that:outlets nearer than 500 metres away get a weight of 1 outlets more than 2000 metres away get a weight of 0those between 500 and 200 metres get a weight of 500/distance Could anyone tell me if this is this possible in FME please?
