Question

Exposing DWF Attributes


Badge +3

Hi I have been provided with a dwf file with pipeline information. I would like to extract the pipeline and attribute data. I was thinking I can use nearest neighbour method for this but I can't even extract the text or specific pipeline data. Could someone guide me with what I need to do to expose the attribute to get this information.

Hi @gisgeek

Please - could you mark / draw the pipeline that you want?

 

Thanks,

Hi @danilo_fme these are the pipe and attributes I wish to extract.

I think you're on the right track here. The bit I'm stuck with is joining all those dashed lines up again. They're not separated by a layer and not an exact dash length either so it could be a bit hit and miss using the line length to separate the pipes from the property line work. Assuming that was done, you could then use the neighbourfinder as you suggested to find the nearest text containing (filter text first for contains 'mm'). Keen to hear another approach to this...
