How to force FME to read optional GeoPackage geometries (FME 2020.2)

Hi folks,

 

I'm trying to read a GPKG Layer from a rather extensive Geopackage which I use as an offline data exchange container. Said layer has a total of 228 objects, of which 47 have multipolygon geometry and the rest are tabular data.

 

The problem: While FME Data Inspector on its own reads the data correctly, the FME Workbench GPKG reader reads all features as type "geopackage_none" and omits geometries completely. I have not found any reader options to resolve this. What can be done do force FME to read all "geopackage_multipolygon" objects correctly?

 

Splitting the data into separate tables is not an option, since I have to use a given data model.

 

Thanks for any helpful advice!

Can you share a sample so we can reproduce your issue? I can't understand how the Data Inspector can work where workbench cannot.

I am not allowed to share data due to legal restrictions. I have also failed in recreating the issue with fictional data for the moment. However, I made a screen recording. Maybe that helps in visualizing the problem.
