I saw these fields in the output in the examples provided by Safe. When I looked at the example workbench files I don't see where and why those fields are created.

Hi @wisegis​ , thank you for your question, which example are you referring to? So I can take a look at it.

Thanks, Daragh

Hi Daragh,

I was going through the example in the FME blog post called Importing Spatial Data into Tableau using FME (https://www.safe.com/blog/2016/08/importing-spatial-data-tableau-using-fme/ ). I am new to Tableau, but not FME. I was trying to figure out which fields are required. I was able to figure out which projection ( EPSG:4326) the data needed to show up correctly on the map in Tableau.
