Hi All,
This post is primarily seeking guidance, or advice rather than answering a definite question. I am trying to figure out the best method to automate 2D files into 3D buildings and load them into an SDE database buildings table. Though possibly also receiving 3D files from said developers.
These files would be received by planning from developers and planning would share them with GIS (me). Would an FME App work better? Can it be dynamic and recognize all sorts of 2d or 3d files? Do I need a separate FME app for each file type? I created a PDF document that I want to share to my planning team so that developers can abide to for my future automated process. from my understanding, it should work, but I've noticed the tutorials (that use CAD) have an accompanying CSV with the building info. This has casted doubt on how i envisioned on using FME. I am very open to criticism as I am very green with FME still.
