I need to find the width of many small hill like features. I have the base point on one side, but need to find the matching elevation point on the other side of the line and measure the distance between the two. The data is a series of cross section Shapefile lines draped over las . Points are also Shapefiles Is there a way to search the line to find the same elevation along the line as the base point?  Thanks

Can I do this in one Statistics Calculator OR do I have to use a Statistics Calculator for each year? Thanks,Justin

I have a table and I want to build another table from it, e. g.values | types12     | house3      | car4      | boatto:house | car | boat12    | 3   |  4This works with the AttributeCreator (Input: @Value(types) / values), if you check the output with a Logger. However I can't see or use the result in other transformers, unless I expose the fields with the AttributeExposer, which defeats the purpose of the dynamic creation. Is there any way around that? The content of the table changes, so exposing manually is not exactly desirable. There's a custom transformer, AttributeTransposer, but it also requires exposing afterwards.

There is both a support ticket and an idea. When reading a large list of drawings from an excel list. you "must" know the entire list of layers you want to read. in the "Features Types to Read:" selection box. Several things are what i consider ambiguous.if you use the cached data selection and select layers from 1 data source (1 drawing only can be selected) and select a layer with a space in it and a layer with no space in it. it returns a text list of the layers with no quotations. however the layer with a spcae will not select any features.If you use the text editor and type your own list of layers and use quotations and commas (like I would do in an esri product) all of the layers with no spaces (and quotations around them) are skipped. If you read the list in a text editor and are trying to identify layers with spaces that need quotations, you are unable to determine which layers have spaces and which layers are simply the next layer in the list. If you desir

As the IFC property sets are configured in other systems i do not have prior knowledge of the attributes to expose these for the writers. I need to be able to feature attribute cleanup so that i can expose these attribute collections without prior knowledge of the feature information.I have successfully exposed the attributes from the collections as a feature attribute but these are still hidden from the writer. I am able to interrogate each feature and build a picture of those attributes in Python but cannot seem to expose these programmatically.  def processFeature(feature):    print("**Processing feature**")    print(feature.getAttribute('ifc_property_set'))    #ifcpropertieslist = feature.getAttribute('ifc_properties')    print(feature.getAllAttributeNames())    i=0    attrNames=feature.getAllAttributeNames()    elementCount = int(feature.getAttribute("_element_count"))    print(elementCount)    exposeAttrsNames={}    for i in range(elementCount):        attrname = "ifc_properties{

Sorry, not sure how to word this correctly. For example, I have 2 published parameters. First parameter is StateName and second parameter is Cities. If I pick a certain state in the first parameter, could the second parameter (cities) only display cities in that state from the first parameter?

Hello, I have ready procedures to transform from .gdb to .gdb format. They were made for version arcgis 10.4, but now I have version arcgis 10.0 and to work I have to reload the reader and writer. Since this is a lot of reader and writer I would not want to do the procedure again. Is there a possibility of automatically switching from a higher version of .gdb to a lower version of .gdb? Thanks in advance,

Hello,I am trying to generate a single SketchUp file having several layers, using several attributes and a GeometryPropertySetter such as sander described here. Thing is, by doing so, all the edges of my shapes are into the default Layer0 layer, while surfaces are in the correct layer :This is very annoying when I want to work with such files on SketchUp afterwards, any ideas about what is wrong here ? Also, some of my layers are set as such, but with the same method, I sometimes get my features into created groups, I really don't know how.  Thanks in advance,Mickael

Hi,Please, any transformer suggestion about how transpose the Table1 into Table2 ? Table1ID Field2005 Field2006 Field2009 Field20181 10.0    28.0  23.8    -3.82 80.0    34.0    -3.8    40.0 Table2ID YEAR VALUE1 2005 10.01 2006 28.01 2009 23.81 2018 -3.82 2005 80.02 2006 34.02 2009 -3.82 2018 40.0 Neither of List transformers nor AttributeExploder + Aggregator transformers work in this case. I have been working with these examples [1] but I don't get exactly what I need.  Before using PythonCaller I would like to inspect other transformer possiblities. So, any FME workpace example or transformer suggestion is apreciated.  Thank you [1] https://community.safe.com/s/article/transpose-a-table-using-fme

I read in map drawings that have the coordinate system defined. There are many files so they have multiple systems (mostly state plane but still varied systems) I have opened the dwgs and they have a coordinate system defined correctly in AutoCAD Map 3D. I have also used the geomap command and they are all correctly located in the state plane cs they say they are in. I use the csExtractor then a test filter to test for whether there is a CS defined. Then near the end prior to writing to fgdb I have CsmapReprojector to reproject the data (with read from feature) to LL84. After the wb completes successfully i open the fgdb to find that (only some) of the data has been reprojected too far south of the US. In reality they are not IN south america. but they are south of Mexico in the ocean. (see screen shot)The only thing i can find going wrong is that the original cs is TX-SC which gets read in as TX83-SCF. so the nad27 gets read as nad83. but even creating a new wb and reading just the of

How could i force the shortest path finder to go through some specific points ? i have used 20 points (from to line ) , and my network .and 10 points,i would like the path to go through them if there is a path . i used the shortest path finder to find the shortest path and it works great but i have some points , in network .i would like to go through this point if there is a path . as example , i have Pt.a - Pt.b (i found the path in network between A - B) but i have some points inside the network as Pt.c ,i would like to check if there is a path through pt.c or not even if it is longer .so, if there is a path then the path will be A-C-B ,if not ,the path will be A-B .i think , i should add to cost attribute but i am not sure ,how could i consider the Points.Thanks for help .

Hi Guys, Is there a way to sort linear polygon features by spatial continuity and then merge then until they reach an specific size? I have the following features which are basically a polygon which was chopped into different parts by a specific length of its center line.  To give you a bit of context, I am basically trying to build a workspace that would split linear complex polygon (as the one below) into parts with a maximum of 1km2. However, these parts have to be continuity and not be multipart as they will be used to make separate enquiries in a website. For example sorting by Easting or Northing wouldn't work here as I would end up with separate parts mainly in the top right corner. Is there a way to do this using FME?  Thanks

I have an ArcSDE Geodatabase created and stored in a PostgreSQL 11.1 Server. There is a Feature Class within the Geodatabase that has attachments. I have a ArcSDE GeoDB Feature Reader Transformer added to a Workspace, configured to read the Feature Class and its attachments and it does not read the attachments.

I have a request to produce files in a custom format that is almost but not quite an esri ascii grid. The header is different and the raster portion is individually hex encoded. I can deal with the header easily enough, but I'm a bit stuck on how to produce the hex encoded body. I can write an ascii grid file, read it back in as a text file, strip the header and then hex encoded it but that seems a bit elaborate. The RasterExtractor doesn't have ascii grid as a format, otherwise I would use that. Thoughts? Ex snip of a file 512512200000200000-31500  0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 4 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 0 0 0 0 1 1 5 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 7 a 10 28 43 60 7e 9c b9 d3 ee fe ff ff ff ff ff ff ff 0 1 4 4 6 6 6 6 6 11 22 37 54 71 8e ab c9 e5 f1 fb ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff 4 6 6 6 6 6 6 7 b 13 28 44 62 7f 9d ba d5 ed ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff 4 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 6 10 22

Hi list.I'm using a SQLCreator to read (!) some data from our administration database. The query fails, because FME wraps my query into a SELECT-INTO construct, that requires "CREATE TABLE" permission, which my task (of course) doesn't have.Q1: Why does FME wrap my query into such a construct?Q2: What other ways do I have to accomplish a guaranteed read-only query?Using 2020.1Cheers

Looking above my CurveFitter doesnt seem to consist of a set of lines which i could then test? How do I get the image to be a defined set of line data? My project is attached. I just want to get rid of all the small lines and dots present after the last CurveFitter transformer. But I'm not sure each line is its own 'object' so Icant get LengthCalculator and Tester to work?

I currently have four identical methods, the only difference is the input and output datasets.  Basically the script looks like this:Reader of dataset 1-> processing method X -> writer to dataset 1 Reader of dataset 2-> processing method X -> writer to dataset 2 Reader of dataset 3-> processing method X -> writer to dataset 3Reader of dataset 4-> processing method X -> writer to dataset 4  As you can see the processing method X does not change because all of the input datasets/output are similar, and is simply repeated, copy and pasted. Is there a better way to do this that isn't as cluttered? Is it possible to loop through readers /writers to avoid having to copy and paste the method over and over? Thanks.  

Thank you. I've done the everything just not quite seeing the lines appear ontop of the rasta. It seems as if the lines are condensed together at the top left of the rasta once they are combined. Image below.    The yellow lines now seem to be top right? Why are they not overlayed to look the same as above?

I have a counter transformer in a workspace and it is giving me a weird count value. The value that comes out is : @Value(__fme_ft_return_value73e8b8c0-7916-4466-bd7c-e869a55224a1)  I have never seen anything but a number come out so I am baffled.
