Importing Orfeo Toolbox to FME (or running mean-shift algorithm in FME)?

Hello,

I'm working on a project where we need to run a mean-shift algorithm on a very large raster dataset. We've been able to do it with the Orfeo Toolbox in QGIS, however we've had some pretty serious stability issues with QGIS itself, and therefore we would like to run the algorithm itself in FME Workbench instead.

Does anyone know if it is possible to import the source code or a bat-file and run it as a transformer in FME?

Or, does anyone know if there is a transformer that is capable of performing mean-shift algorithm on raster datasets?

Hi there

Here is an example our Safe colleague Dmitri made which accessed the Orfeo Tool Box command line interface within FME 2016. In this example he did pan sharpening. Because FME is calling out to the command line interface there would be no performance gain over just running the command line interface outside FME. The advantage might be if you want to run everything within FME workbench for maintainability etc.

Hope this helps

I would be interested in testing this workbench, if it's still available could you please re-share it?
