Can anybody help me in choosing the right transformers for this process.
Creating polygon using points stored in CSV
+1
I have CSV file as input which holds xy co ordinates, I want to use these co ordinates to make polygon geometries which is to be written to oracle spatial.

Hi,
Do you have an ID that defines the grouping of points into individual polygons?
If so then you can use the point connector (connection break attributes : ID).

Hi,
it depends on your CSV, but here are some starting points:
- 2DPointReplacer to create points from a coordinate (X,Y) value
- 2DPointAdder to add another coordinate to an existing point so as to form a line, or to add a vertex to an existing line
- LineJoiner to join separate line segments (hint: features must enter in the correct order, use a Sorter first).
- LineCloser to close a line segment into a polygon

The CSV I am talking about holds the co ordinates in
Col1 (X1) | Col2 (Y1) | Col3 (X2) | Col4(Y2)
And I have to read the points using point1(x1,y1), point2(x1,y2), point3(x2,y2), point4(x2,y1)

Hi,
you can do that based on David's suggestion. Try connecting these transformers in a series: 2DPointReplacer X = col1, Y = col2 2DPointAdder X = col1, Y = col4 2DPointAdder X = col3, Y = col4 2DPointAdder X = col3, Y = col2 LineColser (or 2DPointAdder X = col1, Y = col2)
