I have successfully set up a Garrmin GDB file reader and retrieved waypoints stored in the file. I then used the Geometry Extractor using the FME XML Encoding and assigned it to the default attribute _geometry. When I inspected the data, I see that the attribute _geometry does indeed have XML data along with the associated X Latitude and Y Longitude coordinates.
My question: Is there a translator to extract the X and Y values separately and store them in new attrigutes associated with each point, say Latitude and Longitude, or do I need to use the StringExtractor to get this data? Here is a sample of the XML data on the first data point:
You can do that (string manipulation) or you can turn the features into points (geometry replacer) and use the coordinate extractor to get the XYZ values.
