Hi I'm trying to convert our DTM tiffs to a more weboptimized format.I'm thinking of jpg, png, ecw, jpeg2000. When I try to convert them to gray8 I loose the numbers behind the comma, because the rasterinterpretationcoercer converts from float to integer.That's just not an option. I also tried this: The numericrasterizer gives an error:NumericRasterizer (VectorToRasterFactory): No values were specified for either both WIDTH and HEIGHT or both X_CELL_SIZE and Y_CELL_SIZE. When any of WIDTH, HEIGHT, X_CELL_SIZE, Y_CELL_SIZE, INTERPRETATION_TYPE, BACKGROUND_COLOR, BACKGROUND_ALPHA, BACKGROUND_VALUE, or GROUND_EXTENTS is specified, values for either both WIDTH and HEIGHT or both X_CELL_SIZE and Y_CELL_SIZE must be provided.Also tried the propertyextractor in serie with the rastercellcoercer and kept the attributes. Then I get all rejected in the numericrasterizer.Also this takes way to long. I have a lot of DTM tiles. Can somebody point me into the right direction?I've fou

I have an Address: "198 whitten farm Apt 3". I would like to count the number of blank spaces in the address. if it has more than 3 blank spaces I want to eliminate whatever is there after the 3 blank spaces.

I am receiving geometries from MapInfo .TAB-files. They are then to be passed on to a server in a XML-file. I parse the geometries using GeometryExtractor -> GML 3.1.1. No problem - the GeometryValidator -> DonutBuilder -> GeometryExtractor seems rock solid. Today I encountered this geometry which I can't seem to pass on. It fails OGC and GeometryValidator fails to repair it. For now my workaround is to add a small buffer, but does anybody have a better method?Attached is the geometry as TAB_file.

Hi community,I have something very simple so it seems, but I can't figure out how it's done. I have area features A and area features B. I would like to calculate an attribute per feature from A which contains the calculated from the overlapping feature B. This should be very simple and it normally is. I would use the Clipper en calcultate the areas comming from the inside port. Or I would use the AreaOnAreaOverlayer and test the number of overlaps > 1.The problem is that within A features can have overlap. Features B don't overlap themselves. So some area's of B have to be calculated per overlapping feature A. The Clipper doesn't give me overlapping areas and in the AreaOnAreaOverlayer I can not distinct A from B. Anyone any idea how to solve this? Greetings,Arno

Hi, I have a huge dataset sitting in a table in PostGIS, there are loads of duplicate geometries that I would like to identify and hopefully remove. I am trying to see if there is a faster way than doing a geometry match. Is it possible to create a hash of a polygon so that I could compare that? I can see its possible for point but not polygon data in PostGIS. In there anything FME can bring to the party?Thank you

I have autocad files i am pulling some polyline entities from. i am currently using the PointVertexReplacer to extract the coordinates of the polylines.The problem i am having is that i began expecting 3 vertices; (a begin, a vertex, and an end). I encountered a line with 4 vertices. Previously i just iterated with AttributeFilter through 0,1,2 as these 3 vertices.But because 1 line has 4 vertices the 3rd vertex is not the end. (it would be nice if there were a begin/end attribute that could be grabbed.)I am trying to figure out how to filter these prior to this and can only come up with using the feature information but cannot expose this information. I can see the number of vertices value but it is not exposable. I assume i could do a count but it seems that would require quite a few more transformers.Can anyone suggest how to accomplish this? 

HiA colleague is making maps in QGIS and is using an Open Street Map WMS layer to provide the background mapping. However, the exported map does not match what is displayed in the QGIS project. It appears to be a different zoom and the labels are hard to read.I'm looking at using FME to export the area of interest to a raster file. I'm using the WMS reader as my input and set a search envelope. But the exported image is not at the required zoom level.Is it possible to change this behaviour?If required, the WMS feed I am using is https://ows.terrestris.de/osm/service? and the layer is OSM-WMSThe bounds are:Min x: -59.9741977894788221Min y: -14.7534977323780918Max x: -54.6051733096797207Max y: -11.1201081643435327EPSG 4326FME version: 2020.0.2.1 (20200511 - Build 20238 - WIN64)Many thanks.

When I run a workspace from FME Desktop the Log Message Filter setting in FME Options/Translation is respected. But it's ignored when I run fme.exe from the command line and pass a Command file. Is there a parameter I can set on the command line or in the command file? I just want Errors and Warnings.

Hello,I'm looking for some help running a DXF to KML. I've not done this type of conversion before and wondered if there is anything else that should be added to the process?I'm currently running it on a generating workspace and a dynamic schema to write. The DXF contains:Point, poly, line, annotation and the coordinate system should be WGS 1984 UTM Zone 29NAny help appreciated.Thanks

Dear FME CommunityI have 70 different species datasets - Species 1, Species 2, Species 3, ..., Species 70. Each dataset is stored in ArcGIS Online. I want to write each dataset to Shapefile. I am trying to create a reader / parameter that will enable me to pick a single species to write to shapefile when I run the FME script. Can anyone assist please?The ArcGIS Online reader requires the following parameters for each species:Feature Service : MyFolder/Species 1/Species 1_WFLLayer: Species_1Regards, Damian 

Hello there I have an attribute with values concatenated, I am looking to add character for each value Before Attributephoto1,photo2,photo3 looking to get this after : attributehttp://photo1/text,http://photo2/text,http://photo3/text

Hi Guys,i have a block on Layer 0 which includes also another block which is called Heizhaus.... i explode the block and Use block feature type for components so that i have them in the original layer in the Output: i also use a template filethat are the Basics:so at the end of my workflow (rot 1) the text is in the right Rotation and everything is fine ...but when i write it to the ACAD File teh text gets a Rotation which is false and i don't know where this Rotation Comes from. (rot 2)i have tried to write in the real dwg writer….. i have tried to fill certain Attributes like AutoCAD_rotation, fme_rotation, AutoCAD_text_rotation.. i have tried to read the Output DWG and set a new rotation and no Logical number (e.g plus 180, 360 Degrees or something like that)Nothing happens...Always the same false rotationAny ideas or helpsGreetzFranco   

I am using FME 2018.1 32-bit and while reading an .accdb file, I am encountering this error "WARN |Microsoft Access Reader: The epoch time is out of range. Please ensure it is specified in seconds, and not in milliseconds or microseconds". Translation stops after this with a Fatal Error message. There are more than 2.5 million records in the table i am accessing. If I give a where condition an extract 100 odd records, it does execute. When i run the same Workbench in FME 2017.0 32-bit without any WHERE condition, it executes successfully. Any info on how can i troubleshoot this error ?

Hi! How to add custom 7 parameter geographic transormation (for example between MGI-C and WGS84)? Reason why i want add new transformation is because parameters in FME is not accurate enough for surveying purposes, so i want add new geographic transformation with official parameters released from state surveying administration

Hi all,I have in an excel sheet something like:I would like to determine the score according to my attribute value. So for example I hav an attribute with value 10 the score would be 1,5. The AttribueValueMapper could do this I know, but I would like to point to the excel so I can 'manipulate' the scores in excel and not in FME workbench. Is there a way to achieve this? Greetings,Arno
