Hello I have FME 2022.2 version and i also could upgrade it to 2025 if it helps but i would like to extract data 

 

Input data : *.pts or *.e57 file format (about 2 to 5 room point cloud data in One *.pts file/*.e57file)

Desired output data : *.pts file format (ONLY 1 room to be extracted in *.pts file format)

Other supporting data : Sitewide room model in *.ifc format (federated model having about 20+ rooms in 1 IFC format)

 

TASK : Using IFC room model for any give Room for example (Room1), i would like to clip the input data set i.e. in *.pts/*.e57 file format and out only that particular room  (Room1) *.pts format data. 

 

Am not sure how to set / which reader and writer / transformer to use to get it right . I understand i will have to use Clipper to clip *.pts file using IFC file somewhere.

 

Highly appreciate and obliged with workflow for your support and know-how.

@vimva679 ‘s workflow from two years ago should do the trick: IFC 3D Room Clip and Buffer | Community 
Can you rebuild that one and report if you get any issues?
