Hello,

I'm trying to merge a GeoTIFF orthopotography file and a CityGML file with into a single SketchUp file.

With FME Workbench, I have visually the result I want in SketchUp:

Do you have an idea of how to do this?

Thank you in advance!

HI @sebeauvoir,

 

 

From the doc I don't think that the Sketch-up writer supports writing rasters (https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_Desktop_Documentation/FME_ReadersWriters/skp/quick_facts_skp.htm )

 

One method, though, would be to create a surface which represents the extend of the Orhtophoto and apply the raster/tiff as a texture. If you have a terrain surface this would be even better. Here's a guide on how you can apply a raster to a terrain surface: https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/1086/draping-imagery-textures-on-terrain-surfaces.html
