I'm still new and learning FME. I've added GDA2020 zone 56 (EPSG:7856) to 4 las files within FME. I've run this by add reader function of LAS files with no coordination system and using the add writers function to select the coordination system and the output file. They output the correct coordinate system but took over 3 hours to run for 4 LAS files. Is there a quicker way to added coordinate system for LAS file within FME, as I have to run over 1100 LAS files?

Check that Feature Caching is turned off.

image3 hours seems like a long time.

Assign the projection system thru esri application. that is faster I think.

 

or

the alternative solution is that run fme

 

Run the same fmw file all the las files just by changing the source files.

you can run this from batch file ( command prompt)

fme.exe  --SourceDataset and set the source file folder name and filename

Create the batch file first for all 1000 files and run the batch.
