I am trying to understand differences between FME and smallWorld and what can one do with them. It's the first time I have touch with smallworld and I am especially interested in analysis of the distribution grid. 

To be more specific, I am interested if and how would be following possible:

1) Distribution grid operator exports part of it's grid to some file

2) This file is provided to me

3) I can open this file to access distribution grid details

 

What I need for this, is it possible to do it with FME?

@innouprise​ FME can be used to export data form a Smallworld VMDS (database). You need to have Smallworld installed and a Smallworld license as well as FME for Smallworld. More details on the FME and Smallworld Configuration Options. More on FME and Smallworld in the tutorial Working with GE Smallworld Databases. Smallworld also has the ability to data export to XML.
