Transformers

Hi altruist, I am having an issue in after using AreaOnArea overlay operation. I have overlaid two polygon datasets and ideally the output should have attributes from layer when there is _overlap field have 2 and more. This is what happened for other overlay operations. However, in the following cases I do not see the attribute from one of the polygons after the overlay operations: This is the attributes before overlay:The overlay operations:After the overlay:Does anyone have idea why that may happen?

I'm currently exploring MapBox and their Tiling Service, which is currently in Beta and I'm trying to figure out how to create a line-delimited GeoJSON output so I can upload via their Tileset API.  The data/file needs to take the format as per the example below: Normal GeoJSON{    "type": "FeatureCollection",    "features": [        {            "type": "Feature",            "properties": {                "name": "Melbourne"            }, "geometry": {                "type": "Point",                "coordinates": [                    144.9584,                    -37.8173                ]            }        }, {            "type": "Feature",            "properties": {                "name": "Canberra"            }, "geometry": {                "type": "Point",                "coordinates": [                    149.1009,                    -35.3039                ]            }        }, {            "type": "Feature",            "properties": {                "name": "Sydney"         

I am trying to read the following URL (https://eprostor.gov.si/ods/atom?id=1&type=data) with a FeatureReader transformer so that it will download the zip file and process the data within. This works fine with many other URLs I have used in this way (e.g. https://services.cuzk.cz/gml/inspire/ad/epsg-4258/583723.zip), but not for this one.The error is:XML Parser error: 'Error in input dataset: 'https://eprostor.gov.si/ods/atom?id=11&type=data' line: 1 column: 11 message: invalid byte '�' at position 1 of a 1-byte sequence' I have attached an example workbench and associated csv containing a successful and failing URL in a list. I'm wondering if anyone else has ever come across this issue, and/or if anyone has any ideas as to what is causing the problem, and if it can be resolved in some way. The only thing I can think at the moment is the fact that the URL that is failing does not contain `.zip` at the end of the URL, or is maybe passing in some mis-information in the headers - t

Hi. I need some advice please. I have a 5x data branch at the end of WS. Each branch contains a defined attribute, see note. This attribute is part of the DepartureLeg. Each departureLeg contains a startpoint and an endpoint, two points (it can be one of the variants of five branches ( airportstartpoint, navaidendpoint... etc. ) and each departureLeg is part of a Departure. Chronologically, it goes like this. A departure contains several departureLegs and each departureLeg has two points ( airportStartpoint, navaidStartpoint, navaidEndpoint, etc. ) This is how I need to group it, but I can't. I think I have all the ids I need.

Hi, I'm struggling reading geometry from an xml file. When looking at a part of the (0.7Gb) large xml, I can see it has coordinates that reference a location I do not expect:<gml:LineString srsName="urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::4258" gml:id="GEOMETRY_98ce8c1e-3676-4a60-b2a8-d7e63fe97d1d"><gml:posList srsDimension="3">51.77106873325691 5.459700336196274 49.41166353587596 3.2520665388839736 47.937498062913775 8.934025947231504 51.771400476701494 5.460105669526139 49.412014702926356 3.25205099130662 47.937476504785614 8.934700858000644 51.77170841095756 5.460502642204418 49.412240574188026 3.252040990938717 47.93746470527796 8.935070205423436 51.771910436397455 5.46090045825306 49.41302764854071 3.2520061426583493 47.9374374566226 8.935922993715176 51.77277383456701 5.462819713112839 ...</gml:posList></gml:LineString>The 3D coordinates seem to alternate, which might have something to do with a side view from the data, I guess. When I look at the data in the viewer, it loo

The documentation for the IGDS (DGN) reader states that "Design files consist of a header, followed by a series of elements. The header contains global information including the transformation equation from design units to user coordinates, as well as the dimension of the elements in the file" . My question is how do I read only the header information - coordinates and dimensions etc. I have a large number of files and I just want to the header info from each one. I know how to run the batch processing part with the workspace runner but can't figure out how to set up the reader.

I am trying to solve the application allocation issue through FME. The scenario is I have a list of applications and a list of places with limited spaces.  My initial thought is to sort applications by date, every time, send only one application to the neighbour finder and then change the place's available spaces.  The issue that annoys me is it seems like two loops running parallel but also linked together. Not sure what's the best way to design this type of loop? My loop design seems like just creating an endless circle.Any guide would be much appreciated.

I have a dataset where polygon sometimes have a long and narrow part like in this image (upper narrow part of the highlighted polygon): I am looking for a way to cut polygons like this in two parts so that the small polygons becomes a separate shape.Any idea how to do this automatically? 

I have a dataset with 3 attributes (REF_ID, orde, DMdrempel) and one (DHMdrempel) has formatting (colouring) applied.There is a 1 to many relation between REF_ID and orde, a 1to1 between DHMdrempel and orde (although sometimes values of DHMdrempel can be identical).I want to create a pivottabel as this one but with the formatting applied:I apply an attributepivoter with parameters set as follows: group rows by REF_ID, group colums by orde and attribute to analyze is DHMdrempel.Because of automation purposes and because I don't know the (maximal) number of 'orde'/columns, I cannot use the attributeExposer (or at least I think I can't). I therefore use a Dynamic writer to create my excel file.But I want to include the formatting (colouring) of the DHMdrempel into my pivotted table but I can't find out how to do this. Can you help me?

I have an ETL doing one thing, running SystemCaller to run a python script. This works fine in Workbench but is not working on Server even though the log shows an EXITCODE of 0. Both desktop and server are windows 64 environments, FME 2019.0.1.If we log in to the server box and call the script from cmd, it works just fine. We tried logging in as the fme user account and it ran just fine as well. Its only when running on FME Server that we are having problems. I have tried referencing the python script from a directory drive and copied to the Server box, doesnt seem to matter. Some clues. The log for the job has an exitcode of 0. When running successfully on Workbench we can see in the log where SystemCaller executes the Python and it logs everything the script does. The log on Server executes the Python and moves on to the next Transformer (no log from the python script running).The Python script being ran must import other Python scripts. When I remove these other scripts as

The attribute values is from GitLab pipeline which is called in JSONFragmenter and stored in Attribute Keeper. Now need to pass these attribute value to an azure file storage connector.But the Azure Storage connector is not taking the Attribute values, only parameters are working.Able to pass the published parameters as well as the private parameters.Kindly help me with this.

Hi, I'm working with a mesh feature with around 200 vertices and edges.I saved it to my local PC in 3ds format.I guess the file size is too large than ordinary 3ds file(maybe 4~5 times bigger compared with almost the same file.)I found that 3ds writer in fme is using native fme entity rather than 3ds entity type.(similar question: https://community.safe.com/s/article/fme-creates-large-autocad-dxf-files)I couldn't find any parameters or methods to do the similar thing...Is there any way to reduce my 3ds file output? Thanks a lot. ​

I currently use this WHERE on my reader:[Last_Updated] < DATEADD(week,-1,GETDATE()) or [Last_Updated] IS NullI now have a need to use the items that are older than 1 week, then another need to process those items that are less than a week old. I have added a TestFilter, the NULL test is easy, it is the 1 week item that brings me unstuck. Is this possible to do?  Or do I need to add another step in my chain of processes? Thanks heaps.

Hi,I have several obj files for a city. I succeeded to convert these obj files into cesium 3D tiles. At the result of tiles, texture of models created darknessly. To solve this situation, I used AppearanceSetter, then set Shininess value. However, textures of models got lost. How do I set shininess value of my building with textures? I want to share created models by using AppearanceSetter:I want to share without AppearanceSetter:Its my workflow:Thanks for your interest.

I am using FME Server 2017.0.0.2When I start a job (jobsubmitter service) from the repository, it gets queued.But at the moment no job is running and an engine is available.When I go into the queue and resubmit the job, a new job gets executed running the same workspace without any issues.Has anybody seen this before?And if so, how to solve it?

Hi guys, I'm after a bit of help for creating FME Geometries with a Python Caller. The module I'm using is giving me an object in the following form (it should be a TIN)  [((x1, y1, z1), (x2, y2, z2), (xn, yn, zn)), ((next triangle)), ((last triangle))]  I want to have this as a multi polygon or TIN and my Python skills are fairly lacking. My first thought was to try and format it as WKT in FME but I figured there must be a more elegant way to do this in the Python script itself.  Any suggestions on the best approach here would be nice. The ideal output would be either a multi-polygon or Multi-Surface.

I have .csv file which includes time stamp, lat, lon, altitude and image name columns. I matched image name column on .csv file with image's fme_basename via feature merger transformer. And also, i can write as exif in JPEG file lat,lon,altitude. But i can not write timestamp as a exif on my JPEG image file. Could you help me in this situation?

We recently upgraded from FME Desktop and Server 2021.1 to 2022.1 and are now noticing about a 3' shift while using the Reprojector and CsmapReprojector. The shift is not present while using the ESRIReprojector and PROJReprojector. In this example scenario I've attached workspaces for both version and shapefile outputs of the coordinates. The workspace has not been modified and has been ran in each version to generate shapefiles for reference that contain the coordinate values that differ between the two. We are going from NSRS11.LL to TX83-CF. Is there anything specific that has changed in the newer version that I might be missing when handling certain reprojections? Both workspaces have reprojection engine set to FME.     

We have a workspace that retrieves data from 40+ tables in on and off-site databases and writes the results to tables in an on-site Oracle database. The workspace consists of SQLexecutors and SQLcreators which read the data using ODBC, and Oracle non-spatial writers which write to the local tables. To help with data verification, for each table written to in the local database I want to write a row to a data verification table with the tablename and the number of rows written. I've tried using Counters and Samplers attached to each reader to get the number of rows written, and can route those to a writer to write to the data verification table, but can't seem to get the table name exposed. The attributeexposer and exploders expose the column names but not the table names. And I was hoping there may be a more efficient way of doing this than by attaching individual counters and samplers. Basically, I want the Features Written Summary from the workspace log written to the data ve

Hi, I have a single point cloud which has contains both points with colour and points without. Does anyone know how I can split it so that I can separate the two types of points? I have a script to turn the intensity component into black and white colour values but I don't want apply it to points that actually have colour information already. Does anyone have any ideas? Possibly there is some expression for the PointCloudExpressionEvaluator I could do? But I can't think what.  Any help would be appreciated

I'm having trouble using AttributeSplitter to split everything with a semicolon as delimiter, EXPCEPT skip seimcolon's that are within parentheses. Please help!

Hi altruist, I am trying to fetch data through API for the first time through GET method. However, I am getting error message each time with a code 401 (unauthorized access). Can you kindly tell me from the first image, whether I have correctly put information in the HTTPcaller transformer? I mean the access is really unauthorized or need to other parameter values? I have used the site owner provided credentials to get the request URL. A help will be really appreciated.

Hello. There is an interesting problem, but I can't solve it. I really need your help.1. I have an image footprint. This geometry (polygon)2 . I have an image from a drone. I know the area of interest on the raster. But the area of interest in the local coordinates of the raster , for example, the size of the raster is 80x100 pixels and the area of interest is set to Row and Column 11,13;11,64;25,64;25,133. how to create a zone of interest with a distortion in the geometry, based on this data ?

I have an XML attribute containing metadata of a large number of tables. For each table I want to search through the metadata and extract the table name, all of its attributes, and the attribute descriptions. Each table has a varying number of attributes. Once I have the values want to print them clearly on a Word document where the table name is at the top of the page with all of the attributes listed below.

i have a feature in the sde db that is 1.7M records, the data i am trying to select has a field i want the user to select from. the 1.7M records data set does not have that field so i want to select them spatially, which i am doing now, without all 1.7M records having to be read by the workbench. 1000 or so records to select takes about an hour due to the workbench reading all the records before the spatial selection happens. is there any way to pass my buffer results from the users selection to the reader in the envelope section of the reader before all the record are read?
