Hello FME fans,
Can anyone shed some light on how the anchoredsnapper works, and how to speed it up? I am snapping points to lines but the transformer seems to build a surfacemodel and is quite slow for what should be a simple process. Or suggest an altrenative approach that will do the same thing?
Thanks,
Owen
@owen
Do you have like a lot of features. Or huge tolerance?
How Is your data structured?
Have not experienced slow performance unless I caused it myself or dataset is humongeos.
A small number of features but a snapping distance of 100m.
Hi @owen If you're using FME 2018 then you should read https://blog.safe.com/2018/09/fme2018-tolerance-evangelist179/ What tolerance have you set?
Thanks Dan, yes I have read that article. I changed the snapping type from vertex to segment, and it now runs much faster. tolerance is set to automatic
