Transformers

All went well when i exported. I open the file and my contours are in 3d. Each curve as is Z value correct. After, I have tried to use the "SherbenderGeneralizer" to reduce the number of vertices.When I exported the file again, my contours have lost the 3d dimension. Each curve as 0.000 z value. Can you help me? Sure I am doing something wrong. Many thanks

I have an attribute with dateTime values and I want a summary of the start and end date of all the features. When I did use the older FME version statistics calculator I could use the min and max statistics to calculate the start and end date. Unfortunately the latest FME statistics calculator no longer supports this functionality. Is there an easy way to to calculate my start and end dates?

I have a 2GB .ebc file that I need to pull in for transformation. The file has COMP-3 packing set for multiple (but not all) fields.  I've tried pulling this file in as a raw text file with default encoding, which results in one extremely long string record that crashes Inspector due to lack of memory.  When I try pulling it in via the included EBCDIC US (ibm037) encoding, it sees 100,000+ records but I again run into memory issues on the first record so I cannot see if the reader was truly successful.  Is there some trick to reading EBCDIC COMP-3 packed data that I'm missing? Or is this something that requires extra external processing work prior to ingesting the data into FME?

When using the ChangeDetector, the order of the output is different then the input. For example:Input Original 12,5,13,8,4Input Revised 10,4,11,6,1,8,14,2Output Unchanged 4,8Output Added 1,10,2,14,6,11Output Deleted 13,12,5I can't find the logic of it. Does anyone know? The solution I have is using the sorter afterwards, but I want to prevend to using it because of the long processing time with large datasets.

I have a series of transformers that creates a jpg via a VectorOnRasterOverlayer and FeatureWriter, which stores the jpg on a file server. The jpg is then pushed through a HTMLReportGenerator and then to an Emailer. We use GMail and apparently, Gmail doesn't like embedded images that are sourced from a file server. I get the "broken icon" in the email (and no inline image). Can anyone comment on what I am doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello I try to build a diagram starting from a source-target tablethe result should be something like this is it posible to be made ? how?

This is actually a water network routing challenge, but I'm going to describe it like a road network problem since the "Nearest Fire Station" problem is a classical network/GIS problem and this is just the urban water supply network equivalent.I have to create a fast-calculating FME workflow that processes 75,000 possible, independent, "Road Intersection Closure" events that may or may not result in some other Intersection "Nodes" also becoming inaccessible to all 100 "Fire Stations" as a result of the closure.This particularly happens when you close a critical Intersection that cuts off all routes to the downstream intersections where they do not have a alternative network route ring road.Ironically, I have a proprietary piece of network analysis software that finishes the above calculation in 20 minutes and is the benchmark for an equivalent FME workflow. Whilst I've found Solutions, none so far have been very pe

I extracted a zipped folder and searched within this folder for a PDF with an address. I would like to rename my unzipped folder with this address. At the moment I stored this address in an attribute. Is there a way in FME I can rename the unzipped folder with this attribute value? Probably I need a Python Caller for that?

This dialog window showed up during my translation. It does not show any error but I am curious as to why this happened... This is because when I run the workbench for multiple times it sometimes shown and sometime it does not. May I know what is the reason behind this?

Hi, I have a attribute with the coordinates to polygons and want to create a proper geometry out of it. Is there a simple way to do it? f example x;y;x;yx;y

 I created a work space with reader and writer and transformers but at the end when I get the result there are many fields which are "Null". I also used the template in the FME hub and got the same result. that would be great if any one helps me with this issue.

Utilizo WorkspaceRunner para lanzar otro proyecto por lotes, lo pongo en marcha mediante un archivo excell donde le digo donde están las rutas y el orden en el que tiene que buscar. Debería darme como resultado 54 Shapefiles, pero sólo me da el primero bien y luego sigue trabajando sin dar ningún error hasta el final pero sin escribir ningún archivo más. Alguien sabe cuál puede ser el error?Muchas gracias por las respuestas.

Hi, I'm trying to execute a query on AZURE Spatial database using SQL creator. and generate features. When I specify Reader options on SQL creator it doesn't give Azure Spatial as an option (only Azure non-spatial). Therefore it doesn't read the geometry

I want is to make an ArcPro Geoprocessing tool from FME workspace that would have functionality for user to input different values for certain variables and do calculations (just like any geo processing tool in ArcPro tool box).I am able to create a Spatial ETL tool in ArcPro and link workspace with that tool, however I am struggling to find a way to make that add different variables as parameters that user can choose or calculate values from. I would really appreciate the help on this subject and surprisingly I haven't been able to find much material online as well (or maybe I am looking at the wrong place). ThanksH

I selected the sworld_scale  on the feature type properties attributes in hopes that would take care of it, however I cannot seem to find an appropriate Target Attribute in the AttributeCopier Parameters.​

I am trying to find a way to simplify/generalize the dataset below. There are a number of neighbouring plots similar to the one marked in blue. I would like to merge (dissolve) as many as possible of these whilst retaining the overall shape and those plots with more distinctive shapes.The original features are lines, but in the stage shown below I have created polygons and added a centre point. The plots I want to merge are rectangle shaped and of similar size. They are of course not true rectangles, that would be to easy, most have around 7-12 vertices.I tried the FuzzyParallelLineFinder but inner and outer lines where all computed. I want to keep the outer. I have the feeling that dissolving polygons will give me the result I want without having to patch everything up towards the end. But I could of course be wrong about that.If there is a easier way to do this than the one I suggest below, please let me know!My thinking is that in my "recta

Question time!I have straight lines in 3D, oriented in many different ways, and I want to create cylinders (pipe). I do not want to use the 3DBufferer and I do not want to extrude a buffered slice. Is there another simple way of doing this?Kind regards,Peter

Hi All, One of our customers asked if it's possible to write GML 3.2 Simple Feature Profile level 2 (SF-2) in FME 2019 / 2020 and if not, is there another way and/or when will this be possible? Kind regards, Krien Guijt

I have a database table. This table has an attribute "TEKST" which contains the XML as a CLOB. My questions is, how can I, with FME, extract the XML from the CLOB so that I can process it like any other XML file? Many thanks in advance! :)

Hello, I have a simple workspace that is reading in a feature class from a source geodatabase and writing it out to my target geodatabase. I am using (and need to use) a drop and create table handling method to write the feature class. The source feature class I am reading from is contained in a feature dataset. I don't want this feature dataset to be written out to the target geodatabase; I am only interested in writing the feature class it contains. However, the writer recreates the feature dataset from the source gdb, even though I left the Feature Dataset Table Creation Parameter in the writer null. How do I configure my writer so that only the feature class from the source geodatabase is being dropped and created, while ignoring and not recreating the feature dataset? Thank you.

I have just started using FME. I am working on a Feature class that have multiple fields that has "Year" values.  I am trying to bring my multiple year field values into one field and create a new table. I have been banging my head on this problem for few days now but no luck there, so I will really appreciate some workflow to work on with Thanks in advance H

Hi, i have a question which i think should be solvable with fme but i don't know the right transformer(s) to get the solution.  I have this table with points and id's. I would like to know the best way to calculate the highest score (1+2+3) but without using one id twice.Do you have any id how to solve this? *** Some extra info: Calculation 1 is not valid, here the sheet pics just the highest values (but picks A twice (not allowed)  Calculation 2 Here it picks the value of A (10) because it is the highest value in the table, but overall it is not the highest accumulation of points. Calculation 3 is what i am looking for, Here

When writing to Autodesk ReCap the RCS output file name is lowercase - how do we force it to be all UPPERCASE?

I have downloaded a non spatial table called OpenbareRuimteLabel. In this table a column imgeo_openbare_ruimte_naam is included. In this column the name of the street, location of the label (in RD-coordinates) and the angle to be used for placement of the label is described. It is no problem to extract the streetname (unique value), however the elements 'pos' (coordinates) and 'hoek' (angle in degrees) can have multiple values.  Is there a possibility to create a row for each individual location (point) in a new table? Many thanks in advance. Kind regards,Pim van der Zwaag.
