Reprojection issue from LL-GDA94 to GDA2020 zone 56

Reprojector has worked for us virtually every time to translate GDA94 Lat/Long (EPSG:4283)  to GDA2020 Zone 56 Projection (EPSG: 7856).

I suspect your real issue though, is the WFS Reader is returning Latitude as the “X” Coordinate, and Longitude as the “Y” Coordinate, which is the wrong way around.   I can’t say whether that is a WFS configuration error on the ESRI REST API or an FME configuration error, but there is a workaround by using CoordinateSwapper (although there may be a Reader setting to do this, just couldn’t see it immediately).

Using this with the REST Service seems to give correct GDA2020 Zone 56 coords.

Edit:  OK, reading the FME manual a bit closer.

Can avoid the CoordinateSwapper above by instead configuring the WFS Reader Parameters, although I’m still not sure why FME doesn’t quite auto-detect.  It seems to think the WFS service will serve the coordinates in one order versus what the WFS service actually outputs.

WFS URL is:
https://mapprod3.environment.nsw.gov.au/arcgis/services/Planning/SEPP_Housing_2021/MapServer/WFSServer?request=GetCapabilities&service=WFS

Manual config to get FME to return Long = X and Lat = Y.

Hi Evangelist,

Thank very much for your help it really helped me to solve this issue.

For others who may be interested in knowing the solution provided by the Evangelist.

Here is:

1. Connected to the URL (WFS). Made the manual configuration as per ​@bwn.
2. Used the Reprojector and set it up as per ​@bwn.
3. Wrote to the SQL DB.
4. URL data (blue polygon) right in place.

Sebastian.
