+8I have an ArcGIS Online Feature Layer with Fire Hydrant points, these hydrants have a unique ID from our asset management system.
I am creating new points while carrying out inspection, using a mobile device, it creates a point within a few meters of the original hydrant.
I want FME to grab this new point, move it over the original point, and insert the unique ID into a column of the new point.
Is this simple to do? I have done some googling but nothing has jumped out at me. Thanks!

Have a look at the AnchoredSnapper transformer.
Use the hydrants as Anchor and the new points as Candidates.
This will move the new points to the hydrant.
Then a PointonPointOverlayer with Attribute Handling set to Merge attributes, will get the ID from the hydrant on the new point.
Hope this helps.

+8There has been a slight change in scope to my original question, now we are taking two separate inspection points with associated attributes, in the vicinity of the original hydrant point. I have all my inspection points being moved over the original hydrant, this is great. But now I want to boil down my inspection points to be only one, is there an aggregation tool or something that can do this? I am not sure what I should be looking for?
Thanks!
