Question

A customer is trying to copy spatial data from an Oracle geodatabase (ArcGIS) to HANA. They have stationing (m value) and I can't find any reference that mentions if SAFE FME will carry over the stationing to the M variable supported by HANA spatial

HANA Spatial has an M value which is used for stationing along a linear asset (a linestring) for example. If there's a length of railroad track, there might be a signal every 1km, so each signal starting from M=0 would be at M=1, M=2, M=3 respectively. If SAFE FME is used to copy over a line from Oracle spatial and that line has stationing (or "measure" - not "unit of measure"), will SAFE FME also copy over the stationing?

I'm not sure if the M Measures value is carried over unless it is exposed as an attribute since this is a geodatabase specific attribute. Can you expose it with an AttributeExposer or in the Reader Feature Type > Format Attributes tab? If it doesn't appear there, you can also extract the value using the MeasureExtractor.
