I couldn’t figure out which tool can remove duplicates. For example, in case we have two lines that are identical (one on top of another), then which tools can remove this duplicate?
For example, in the screenshot below we have 4 lines that are identical, then how to remove three of them and to leave one?
Thank you

Not sure which tool can remove the duplicates shown in the screenshot below
Line#3 and line #4 are duplicated in the marked part
If they match exactly I'd try the Intersector or LineOnLineOverlayer. Both have the option to generate a list with the attributes of the original overlapping features so you can work with those.
So basically, in your screenshot, you can remove the Chopper and Matcher and it should work.
Hope this helps

It appears that the “matcher” couldn’t catch the duplicates. It keeps the original number as is despite the fact that there are a plenty of duplicates.
What might be the issue here?

I couldn’t figure out precisely how the matcher works and how does it remove the duplicates.
1. I wanted to remove the duplicates
2. And then to convert lines to polygons.
This doesn’t appear to work with the “matcher” and “GeometryCoercer”.
The polygons fail to be written in the polygon feature class?
What might be the issue here?

It appears to work fine now as I have adjusted the workbench based on your valuable comments.
Hope this helps

Hello @jamal , this article has a few alernative approaches, it may be worth taking a peek! Data QA: Identifying Duplicate Features with FME.
+5Right. Intersector or LineOnLineOverlay can remove the duplicates as per the screenshot below. The duplicate segment gets in a separate object. All can be joined with linecombiner tool
