How to match boundaries?


Hi, I am new to FME and am excited to get started. I have a task that should me simple, however I am not sure how to go about it. I have two Arc feature classes I need their boundaries to match with no gaps or overlaps. I used Arc to erase one with the other. Now I need to align them so each has a vertex where the other has a vertex. I can do this manually in Arc but I would prefer to automate it. Can I do this in FME and can you please tell me how to use which transformer? Thanks!

I would have a look at the Snapper transformer.

you could first filter out arc-boundaries with a spatialfilter.

Then use a arcproperty extractor to extract arc parameters.

Remove arcs, recreate arc with 2dArcReplacer using parametervalues you extracted.

You control this using the list from the Spatialfilter (containing wich id's share a certain arc-boundary)
