I'm using the AreaOnAreaOverlayer to intersect two large sets of polygons (Polygon 1 & Polygon 2 for clarity), one of which (Polygon 1) contains overlapping polygons which are sometimes coincident with each other, but with different attributes. The transformer is only overlaying one of several polygons from Polygon 1 with Polygon 2 and dropping the others from the output, but I need all of them to be intersected and output.

What other transformers can I use to prepare the data so that all polygons are intersected?

I'm using FME Workbench 2016.1, and can't currently upgrade.

Thanks,

Matt

@ronaldmcoker Why are 822 features getting rejected? Try a GeometryFilter and GeometryValidator - possibly an Intersector. Are you generating a list with the AreaOnAreaOverlayer?

Hi Dan,

 

Generating List: No. I will try out Filter and Validator and see if anything comes of that.

 

I'm also having the same issue with SpatialRelator though. Only one of many stacked polygons' attributes from the Supplier is being included in the output.

 

Thanks.

"WARN |Output 822 features which had incorrect geometry for the given input port"

@DanAtSafe For some reason these transformers compare spatially with the last polygon out of many coincident polygons. I noticed the OBJECTID for the polygon with attributes carried over to the product of the SpatialRelator is always the highest out of a group of matching/coincident polygons.

 

 

Of course, I'm new to FME, so I haven't really grasped the necessity of using lists or some other tools, so I apologize for that.
