Dissolve polygons into neighbouring polygons.

Hi, I want to dissolve all polygons that are under 1.5m2 into neighbouring polygons. I have managed to merge the 1.5m2 polygons that only intersect one other polygon. But with regards the rest, I want them to dissolve into the largest polygon it intersects. For example, if a 1.5m2 polygon intersects a 100m2, 200m2 and 300m2 polygon I want it to always chooose the 300m2. Thanks very much for any help. Kind regardsB

spatial filter for point clouds

HiI have a tiled point cloud.I want to be able to test/check what tiles are intersecting, within, touching etc with polygons from a shapefile.If a tile is overlapping then the part that's inside the polygon needs to be ground filtered. The other part needs to stay the same.It seems that the spatialfilter doesn't work with a point cloud. I get the wrong geometry message. Is there another way or another transformer I can use?  *** Dont forget the World Tour Webinars: TUESDAY, MAY 5 2020***

Creating Empty File Geodatabase

Is it possible in FME to create empty Esri file geodatabases without any feature classes inside? Like how you would manually create them in ArcCatalog.

DWG Units

Hello all,I am trying to validate DWG files and that they have been drawn using metric units. I have exposed the 'Read Drawing System Variables' and that gives me access to autocad_lunits but I am trying to figure out what the output means.In the image below the autocad_lunits comes back with a value of 2 on the 0 layer but not sure what 2 really means. Does anyone know what the range of options that AutoCAD produce or if there is another way to find what units are being used in the drawing?   Note: I know this particular drawing is in metric units but not sure what other values could be expected.

Dynamic attribute creation after data parsing

I'm having a hard time even coming up with a title for this problem that I'm seeking help on. But I'll summarize and provide context as much as I can.We are trying to parse publicly available medical data. This data is provided as a concatentation of multipe substrings (ex: 100 or more fields) in one long string. An accompanying document describes the start and end position of each substring that defines the value of a field. I was able to mock up a quick workflow to dynamically supply a single row Excel or CSV file with this data (see excerpt below that I used as a proof of concept) and then feed in the long string text data file:The workspace reads the above and uses an AttributeExploder to "transpose" this table. I then clean out unwanted features and do some calculations to create an appropriate StartIndex and EndIndex (which I use later to extract the substrings). After reading each line in the text file, I then use a FeatureMerger to stitch this together wit

Topological edition in Qgis not working after FME workspace

Hi,  I have a shapefile 1 in which I can move common points between features with topological edition active in Qgis, without problem.After I read the file in FME and write it to another shapefile 2, this last one cannot be edited the same way (common points are moved separately even with topological ediiton active in Qgis).I tried to reduce the workspace to the minimum, means no transformer at all, only shapefile reader and shapefile writer ! Same behavior. Did you already have this behavior ? I don't know what I do wrong... I can send the shapefile if needed.

Custom Transformation Issue: CSRS 1997 to CSRS 2010

Hi all, I'm attempting to set up a custom XFORM_DEF to move between CSRS (1997) and CSRS (2010) using the grid shift file CVG69710.gsb provided by NRCAN, and I'm having trouble getting it to show up in FME Options > Coordinate Systems. I was wondering if anyone might have experience setting up this transformation or if anyone could otherwise spot what might be going wrong. I've placed the grid shift file in Reproject\\GridData\\Canada and placed this definition in the bottom of the MyCoordSysDefs.fme file. I also did a test by uncommenting the ASTRLA66-Grid_to_GDA94 XFORM_DEF in the same file and it shows up in Workbench without issue.Here is my custom definition:I was thinking that perhaps I need another datum to represent either CSRS (1997) or CSRS (2010), but I'm not really sure. There seems to be some ambiguity surrounding the representation of different CSRS realizations within the EPSG code system and I am unsure which is being represented by the CSRS datum I&#

Georeference Revit file and read in FME

I'll show you how I tried to do it:In the first figure I show you about the Revit survey point, and for me it's ok. Because the coordinates values are coerent with the coordinate system of the project.In the second figure I show you about FME reader setting that I have used.When I use the reader to import the file in FME Desktop 2020 the model don't match with the correct location :-(Someone can help me!!!RegardsGianpiero

Convert SHAPE point with the dwg

Hello, I wanted to know if you have already managed to convert a JPEG image to a SHAPE point with the GPS coordinates (latitude and longitude) of the EXIF data on FME 2018. Knowing that I don't have the EXIFGeometryCreator transformer which is on FME 2020. For the moment I am using the AttributeManager transformer to remove the parentheses contained in the jpeg_exif_gpsdestlatitude and jpeg_exif_gpsdestlongitude data. Example: I use this StringFunctions @Trim (@Value (jpeg_exif_gpslongitude), ()) for the longitude which is worth: jpeg_exif_gpsdestlongitude = (0) (33) (0) And for the latitude I have: jpeg_exif_gpsdestlatitude = (44) (28) (4) However the StringFunctions that I use only deletes me the parentheses at the beginning and end of expression as below: 0) (33) (0 and 44) (28) (4 Do you have a solution to remove all the parentheses? For the rest I use the transformer VertexCreator, to use these coordinates (altitude and longitude) to be able to obtain a point having as attribu

Default Shared Resources for Desktop

Hi All, I originally asked this via the Support Chat. Whilst a case has been setup, it was suggested that I also reach out to the community (thanks @steveatsafe). For a client we're setting up a dev FME Server install (and eventually test and prod). On the servers will be installs of desktop to do the publishing from. Each user that will do publishing will log on to the server using their own windows account.  To keep everything organised, we would like to have one set of connections and shared folders for custom transformers. Internally we have a setup script that runs and sets the appropriate registry keys for the user to the shared location (each user has their own laptop).  This way of setting the shared location will not work for our client as multiple users will have access to the server to publish workbenches. Our current scripts works on the user level and therefore would need to be run each time a new user access the server.Is there a way to set the global defaults for the

Connect all areas with the shortest line. If area amount is X then line amount should be X-1

 I have a set of areas. And all neighbours should be connected with a line. If I have 10 areas they should be connected with 9 lines to connect them all. I have tried to explain in detail with the attached pdf and in annotations in my workspace. I have a solution but its not the best solution and could probably be edited to something better. For small amount of data it works. But for large its a heavy process.  The end result should look something like the images below Alla areas are connected    Alla areas are connected  And there are 1 less line then there is areas
