Hi,

I'm trying to create an ESRI geodatabase (.gdb) from an INTERLIS 1 file (.ili). The ili file only contains the structure of the database but no data.

I'm using the ili2fme reader and ESRI Geodatabase writer.

The transaction works but the resulting GDB is empty. Does anyone knows why?

Thanks!

-- ili2fme version: 5.7.6

-- FME 2013 SP4

Hi @varr,

This is due to the fact that no features are received by the writer, I would suggest using the schema (any format) reader or FeatureReader (set to read the schema only) to recreate the output schema.

Hope this helps.


Hi @itay, thanks for your answer.

But how to use the schemareader only? (sorry I'm not really used to FME)

 


Hi @itay, thanks for your answer.

The Schema reader is just another reader you introduce to your workspace canvas.

 

It returns the schema (data model) instead of the data (in your case not available) and is usually used to recreate the output schema base on an input schema.

 

 

For more information on the reader see:

Thanks @itay !
