Question

Can I add feature classes to GIS from file paths in a CSV/Excel using FME?


I am using Treesize to search company folders for GeoTiffs and want to add to a map to view coverage. I need to have a function to add these Geotiffs from the file path outputted by Treesize.

You most certainly can. You will need to read in the csv/excel file, feed the results into a feature reader's initiator port, and set the feature type to the attribute where the data name is located. This way, when each record enters the feature reader, the feature reader will read the data. Then you need to connect it to a feature writer to write the data to your GIS database.
