I would like to know if there is a  transformer available in FME that could replicate the spatial join functionality that is available in ESRI.

 

 

Here is what I tried so far. 

 

* Spatially join a point feature class with a polygon feature class based purely on spatial relation "within" . The ouput that I would get by doing this an output feature class that contain the attributes of both the input feature classes based on their spatial relationship. Unfortunately, its taking forever in ArcGIS as the dataset contains 100000 + features . 

 

 

I was hoping there would be a better way to do this through FME .

 

Appreciate any help on this.

Hi, have you tried the Clipper or the SpatialFilter?

Wich large amounts of objects as Filter  you may prefer SpatialRelator and then a Tester to test for _related_candidates>0.

 

PointOnArea overlayer is also possible.
