I have a vector layer of polygons, and a single band raster. I would like to add a field in the vector layer, and for each of its poygon, fill its value with, for instance, the mean of the pixel value that are inside each polygons. Any way to do this with FME?
Best regards,
Asher

I meant "merging clipper's attribute to clippees" by "migrate". Sorry for the vagueness.
You can use the Summary features instead of the Complete features, because the statistics calculation has been performed with grouping by UIDN. Although the result will be same, the processing may become faster in this case, I think it's worth to try.
The number of resulting features is less than the number of source polygons. Probably 4 polygons don't have inside points. In other words, the 4 polygons may be outside of the raster. You can check the situation by connecting Inspectors to the source reader feature type and the NotMerged port of the FeatureMerger.
In addition, you can also check the number of features that go to unused output ports if you run the translation with "Run with Full Inspection" command. It's my favorite new functionality in FME 2015.
One possible way is:
(1) Transform raster cells into points with the RasterCellCoercer.
Output Cell Geometry: Points
Extract Banc Values As: Attributes
(2) Use the Clipper to clip the resulting points by the polygons and migrate polygon ID to the points.
(3) Calculate average of cell values for each polygon ID group with the StatisticsCalculator (Group By: polygon ID).
(4) Merge the result to the original polygon with the FeatureMerger.

Make a clourmap of the values, use rasterexpressionevaluator. etc
@Takashi: in step (2), how do you "migrate polygon ID to the points"?
@Gio: what do you mean by making a "colourmap of the values"? My raster is already a single band raster.

Thanks to the workflow above I managed to replicate the procedure and compute mean value for raster (NDVI of satellite image) on polygons.
+32If you don't use the fme_basename from the shapefile anywhere, don't expose the fme_basename attribute on the shapefile. This way it will be the basename that is inherited from the supplier that is used in the attribute creator.
