Hi @frsisani You can edit the FuzzyStringCompareFrom2Datasets by inserting a Bufferer (and make your own custom transformer) but you also might want to find those features over a certain ratio and then compare those spatially with a NeighborFinder. So you could do a spatial query and fuzzyCompareString in either order, or if you modify the custom transformer then you could use the Bufferer to help calculate the ratio.
