Does anybody know how to extract information from one feature class and output as a new Feature Class ?
(I am pulling from an SQL database for GeoMedia to place into a GeoMedia access database)
Example: I have a Water network (feature class) with two attributes with the following options
Status: conceptual, proposed, in service
and
Owner: City, Other
I want to extract all the IN SERVICE pipes that are of type CITY. Does anybody know the write transformer that would produce these results?
+59There are two ways to do this:
1) When adding the GeoMedia SQL Server reader, click on the parameters button and set a where clause (eg where status="IN SERVICE" and owner="CITY")
2) Don't set a where clause but use the Tester or TestFilter transformer to carry out this.
#1 is better because it means you are reading less data into your workspace. #2 means you are reading everything first and then filtering it.
Hope this helps

You can also use attributefilter based on status first and then owner type
