Hi all!
I’m looking for some possible help with my FME workflow (dwg to geodatabase). I have a DWG reader followed by several geometry transformers, and the geometry is working well. Where I’m stuck is the attribute schema.
I have a CSV/Excel file that defines my target schema. it’s structured row-by-row. each row represents a single attribute, not a feature. All the attribute fields are under the same "attribute_value" column. So, each feature class is represented by many rows. For example, electrical pole has 8 rows—one row each for pole_id, owner, project#, etc.—all sharing the same source layer, output feature class, and dataset. Another feature class (vegetation) follows the same pattern but with fewer rows because it has fewer attribute fields.
I need the geodatabase to have each feature class only contain the attributes listed for it in the CSV, and nothing extra. I understand this requires a dynamic writer, but I haven’t had success yet. I currently have a SchemaMapper set up just before the writer.
Any guidance or suggestions would be very greatly appreciated—thank you!!
