Transformers

I am downloading data through an API from OS open source. The connection is set up correctly and the data is downloading when ran but it downloads several versions of the data in several formats such as SHP file, GML and Geotiff. For my project im working on I only need the shapefiles but I cannot figure out what tool to use to filter the rest of the unwanted data types out correctly. Or maybe its not a tool and its done in the JSONfeature parametres? I have attatched some photos below so I hope it helps clear up any questions.

The above image should explain the issue. I have tried AreaGapAndOverlapCleaner which fills the donut and dissolves with 1 of the polygons (I have chosen the polygon with the longest boundary at present), which results in below. This is ok but ideally I want the donut evenly split across both polygons. Is this possible? Can anyone recommend a transformer or number of them to get my required output?

Hi, I've a bunch of features relative to adresses and associated inhabitants. I've already grouped the features by similar street names and numbers wich results in the "match_id" column. What I need now is to sum each four "total..." column's value (separately) by using the "match_id" as grouping value. The goal is to get the number of peoples, etc ..., living at one adress. I've tried several transformers after the AttibuteManager but none return the attented values. Thanks for your help

Please can someone tell me how to write a WHERE clause in the feature reader that excludes records that do not contain a value. I have thousands of records and some of them have a Global ID - I want to keep these records. I also have records that contain NULL or no value - I want to exclude these values. I can perform this function in a Tester, but a colleague informed me having this clause built in to the feature reader instead will be much quicker. Perhaps someone can confirm this. Thanks, Frank

Hi everyone, I need to retexture a citygml file using one (mosaic)image file. But I am facing an issue in the last steps using the Appearance Setter. I started with the WallSurfaces and managed to calculate the (row,column) coordinates of each wall-vertex on the new single image (derived from the previous textured model that used multiple images for one building in the appearance folder). The position of a (sample) wall3D projected on the mosaic-image looks correct, attached a screenshot from QGIS. I rescaled the row column coordinates to a 0,1 scale, with (0,0) representing the lower left corner of the image, and stored them as list-attributes for each wallsurface. I used these lists to set the u,v texture coordinates with the measuresetter transformer as explained in this useful post on texturing citygml : https://community.safe.com/s/question/0D54Q000080heXzSAI/3dcitydb-texture-coordinates Afterwards I used the appearance setter, connecting the imagemosaic to the appearance input, t

Hi all, I have a couple of point features which are feeding through with polygons (as the points should join to polygons, bar these 2). I've tried the GeometryCoercer and CenterPointReplacer etc but no luck. Is there something I'm missing which could create even a small polygon from a point?

My dataset contains multiple points within different towns. For example, town A will have 30 datapoints and town B has 35. Can I automatically create output ports to group the relevant datapoints by each town without having to filter them all manually?

I have a workspace that converts a DWG file to a new DWG utilizing a template file. However, I am unclear on how the text styles saved in the template file interact with multi text features written to the output DWG. I understand that the template file will overwrite any styling you set in the workspace for lines, polygons, and blocks. Does this also apply to text? Here are the details, In my workspace I set the text style with the property autocad_shape_name to a corresponding style in the autocad template file. Also, the multi text features are put on a layer that exists in the template file. I have been trying to modify two attributes in the text features that are found in autocad (Annotative, and Defined Width), see the image below showing these properties highlighted in AutoCAD. However, I can't seem to set these attributes at all. Theoretically, if fme utilizes text styles from a template file, the "Annotative" property should be set correctly in the ouput (it's not) by the text

I would like to iterate through a table based on a list of values. This is the process I would like to automate: Filter the table on a value then add an attribute and BulkAttributeRenamer. I have 20 values so I'd like to be able loop through the table for each value rather than have a set of transformers for every value.

Hi, I'm looking at using FME server to create our Cesium3DTilesets, rather than using the native Cesium ION on-premise tiler which we're using at the moment, so we can streamline some of our processes along with a bit of exploration. Say I have 4 OBJ photogrammetry models originally created using ContextCapture. Each OBJ file represents a building: Building1.obj Building2.obj Building3.obj Building4.obj I want to create one Cesium 3D Tileset from these building objs. I also would like to add some metadata to the generated tileset.json/b3dm files to specify which .obj they were originally referenced to, e.g. the tiles batch Id could be set as the name of the original obj for example. The reason for this is to be able to distinguish which building is which when streaming the model in an application such as CesiumJS. It needs to be one tileset that is generated rather than one per obj, as one tileset is much more performant than streaming data for each separate tileset. On a small scale m

Similar to method here: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/civil-3d-forum/how-to-create-surface-or-solid-to-model-existing-tunnel/td-p/8551041 I have as input a underground tunnel in MESH (pointcloud also available). I want to convert this MESH to 3DSOLID DWG. One idea was to take every single polygon of the Mesh and use the Extrude in the right direction, or the 3DBufferer (takes too long) to create a solid object before writing to DWG with RealDWG-writer. However this does not seem to be very pretty or fast on large sections. Is there a better approach to generate a solid object from a tunnel with FME?

Dear Sir/ Madam, So I would like to reproject my CityGML model (ground surface) from EPSG 2326 to EPSG 3857. However, I notice that the area is changed, even though they are both in meters. May I ask if is it normal? Is there any reason behind this? Thank you very much. With regards, Zach

I tried using Appearance setter for KMLwriter but didnt able to get the result. Appearance setter worked for CityGML output but not for KML output.

Hi, I have a (complete) road network containing all the "real" roads segments of the road network. I then have several "copies" of the road network but with different segments, these segments define attribute properties for the road segments. I want to split the "real" segments by multiple attribute segments. e.g.: Road 1 -------------------------------------------- 5m 10m ---------|----------------------------------- 70km/h 50km/h 70km/h --------------------|-------------|---------- Desired output: 5m 10m 10m 10m --------|-----------|-------------|---------- 70km 70km 50km/h 70km/h Does anyone have a good solution for performing this in FME?

I'm using a coordinate system that is not in FME’s Coordinate System Gallery. I added a custom coordinate system by creating a new .fme file and using the online tool. When I use it in my FME model it give me the message: "Invalid longitude value given for projection origin". My .fme file has this information: COORDINATE_SYSTEM_DEF PTRA08-UTM/ITRF93 \\ DESC_NM "PTRA08 / UTM zone 26N EPSG:5015" \\ GROUP EUROPE \\ EL_NAME GRS1980 \\ ORG_LAT 0 \\ PARM1 -27.0 \\ PROJ UTM \\ QUAD 1 \\ SCL_RED 0.9996000000 \\ SOURCE "https://www.dgterritorio.gov.pt/geodesia/sistemas-referencia/regioes-autonomas/PTRA08-UTM-ITRF93" \\ UNIT METER \\ X_OFF 500000 \\ Y_OFF 0 I think the error is in PARM1, but I think it's ok... -27

Hi, I'm using the DGN styler to plot my data using RGB colours that I've pulled out of an mxd, I've set this to the FME colours and also tried RGB colours (multiplied the parts of the fme colour x 255) but neither seem to work. The data inspector does show the colours correctly. As a workaround I assigned my different coloured polygons to different CAD levels then set them the elements colour to 'by level' and importing a csv of by level colours. The problem is I now need to set all my elements on a single level so can only have a single colour. I've had success by assigning a colour index in the past but need to assign RGB in this instance. Any help would be much appreciated.

I managed to create centerline (blue line) using suggestions by "@takashi" thanks for that., I would like to create additional lines (black line) inside the polygon, lines should be equally disturbed.

Hello, I have a lot of attributes that need to be input into specfic cells in an excel template. Some of these cells are merged and some are not. How would i write each individual attribute into seperate cells based on the template? Many thanks, @Takashi Iijima​ @Mark Stoakes​ @nielsgerrits​ @ebygomm​ @jkr_da​ @mark2atsafe​ @jdh​

Hello everyone, I'm looking for an easy way to extract domain value from a gdb for validation. I know that you can use ArcGIS Pro to export a XML schema from a GDB, but I want to skip that step. I tried to use Schema Reader, but it doesn't give me the full domain values in the attributs. Anyone have an idea ? Thanks

I've an ArcGIS geodatabase feature class with some attributes. I do some attribute mapping and export data in a new geodatabase feature class. Everything works fine but some of the original attributes are not transferred in the output data. I don't know why...... I've used the Attribute Manager to remove and rename some attributes, then I've used the Attribute Creator and the Attribute Keeper, the last step is with a final Schema Mapper and finally the new feature class: but there are some attributes (not interested by any transformation during the process) that are missing (the fields in yellow). Any idea? Thank you

The obvious transformers (Rasterselector, RasterBandRemover, RasterBandKeeper) do not give the desired output. No errors are generated but all bands of the CSAR raster file are still present after processing. The bands seem to be hidden but I can not find a way to make them available for processing.

I've been trying to work out how the light source definition is actually used within the SurfaceFootprointReplacer (with shadow mode set to perpendicular) transformer without luck. My end goal would be to extract an estimated surface of a 3D shape for a hydraulic radius calculation. If I know the shape's rotation from the horizontal axis, how does this get defined by the vector parameters? Defining a point along the face didn't appear to be the right answer, nor was offsetting a point... A simplified workflow showing a cube rotated 45° is attached to illustrate the issue.

Hi there, Thanks in advance for any help. I have a point cloud that is in XY-MT format. My goal is to figure out where the openings are on a 'flat surface'. I have taken the point cloud and filtered it so only the data I care about is being used (PointCloudFilter). I am now left with a point cloud that clearly shows my openings. I am looking to show the XY coordinates of the 7 openings shown on the attachment. I have tried a few of the transformations, but I am not having much luck. Can someone point me in a direction where I may find the positions of these openings?
