Transformers

Hello, I would like to do the following (see attachment):Select these three lines (black, green, red) from a db table (how the table is structured I have to select the three of them and not only two) Create a 2m buffer around each line Identify the two lines (black, green), as they are the lines with a smaller angle to each other, and create a point where their buffers intersect /diverge (red dot) Create a perpendicular line to the green and black line starting from that point Create a point (yellow dots) 4m away from the intersection of the perpendicular line with black/green line on the black/green lineThe first two steps are easy to do but I have troubles with steps 3-5. What transformers shall I use ?

I’m trying to split an ArcGIS sde table of rooms into multiple CSVs based on floors, and then upload the resulting CSVs into a Google Drive directory. I have the first part, but when I run the Google Drive connector it says the translation is successful, but nothing gets uploaded to the GD directory. I have admin access to GD and there is nothing wrong with my connection. Has anyone else had a similar problem? 

Hello am new to FME I in the process of Automating the import of invoices and G/L transactions.  Our CitySuite by Harris.  Is the anyone who is or who has been involved  with the integration of these.  My biggest hurdle at the moment is the format of dollar amounts in XML.  I have tried using the xquery  formula but then the XML Templater fails. Any assistance would be appreciated.  

I used PointToPoint overlay to find out which two points are a repeat in two datasets. How can I still grab two columns of information from dataset 1 into dataset 2 if they are overlap? the two datasets do not have FKs, is there a way to join them spatially and then have the tables join instead of union? ---Thanks---

I have finally started using FME Workbench (Form) 2024 a bit more consistently now that I built a new instance of FME Server (Flow Hosted) 2024.1.1.1. I like the updated look, but am missing a few things and noticing some inconsistencies in how the transformers render on the canvas:The newer look is more modern and although it’s just “ok” for me (looks like a card and less “fussy” than the previous transformer look), I like it. I miss the cog-wheel to access settings with a single click at the top-right of each transformer. Now you have to highlight the transformer and then you can click to access the settings. Doubling the mouse clicks isn’t a great enhancement. Would love to see this make a come-back, maybe as a minimalist “dot” or something... I can double click to get to the settings, but still not thrilled about it. It is forcing me to use the Parameter Editor window more now, docked to the right of the screen. Still getting used to it in an effort

Hi,How can get the green dot on the blue polygons.I have created the polygon centroid using center of polygon and with neighbor finder I get the green dot on red line. What I need the green dot on blue polygon and the small segment connecting the red line to blue polygons.I tried lion on area but I cat extract the  segment marked in black.Any help is appreciated

Hi,It seems that the SpatialFilter does not always work as expected when the Filters First option is enabled. I have taken several steps to fix the incoming data (such as using the GeometryValidator and applying reprojections), but the SpatialFilter only works consistently when the Multiple Filters option is enabled.Below, I have included an image of my workbench, where—after multiple test attempts—only the top SpatialFilter suddenly works as expected.Is this a bug?I am comparing .dwg files with a feature class in a geodatabase (area)I work with the DataInteroperability extention by ESRI, in a workbench created outside of ArcGIS PRO,FME(R) 2024.0.1.0 (20240328 - Build 24202 - WIN64)  

Hi,I would like to use a simple function in the SchemaMapper for Attribute value for a new attribute. In an AttributeCreator I would use @Value(Lat)#@Value(Lng). This concatenates two values seperated by a #. I can't get it to work in a SchemaMapper. I tried @EvaluateExpression(@Value(Lat)#@Value(Lng)), but the SchemaMapper interprets this as a string and not a function. How can I make this work?Btw, I use FME 2023.2.5.Thank you, Arno

Hi,Is it possible to choose a line “connector” between a polygon and text object using MapnikRasterizer?Similar to attached image where the black text and lines are desired layouts. It would be good if an auto placement could be used for no overlapping of text, lines and polygons.   

Hello,I am generating an orthophoto from a point cloud using the ImageRasterizer transformer, with intensity as the input for pixel values. However, the only available option is grayscale, and I would like to apply a high-contrast color scale (e.g., green to red) instead of grayscale.Is there a way to change the intensity palette before rasterizing the point cloud, so the resulting raster already has the desired colors?Alternatively, can I modify the color palette during or after rasterizing to achieve a similar effect?Attached is an example of the desired output, where intensity is mapped to a high-contrast color scale.Thanks in advance for any suggestions!High contrast with colors

Hello, I am currently running into issues when reading a gml file.I have two files, build exactly the same way.It reads perfectly well the coordinate system from one file, but not from the other.File 1File 2It seams to me that the the connection is not beeing read perfectly.cables is a table “CableElectrique” whereas “my” is the geometry I am sorry, I cannot provide more than snippets :(

Hi,I have a point dataset of vehicle locations being turned into lines using the LineBuilder and self-intersections are being created. While I can write successfully to the MSSQL SDE using the SDE writer, I’d prefer to use the SQLSpatial writer (due to speed and licencing). SQLSpatial fails due to what looks like the self-intersections.  GeometryValidator can’t seem to fix the issues, with the repair failing.The source points are the last hour of locations so they’re continuous being added and removed per vehicle.I thought this would a common situation for FME users to be in.  Processing tracking data.Also, would it make more sense to add the line segments on to the end of the line rather than rebuild the line?  I’m not sure how to go about that in FME.Thanks

I have a JSON-schema. A part of it looks like this:     "dct_license_sm": {      "type": "array",      "items": {        "type": "string"      }    } I feed data into a featurewriter pointed at the schema-file. The corresponding data from the input looks like this:dct_license_sm (string: UTF-8): https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/So - a string, but in the schema it is declared that this is to be an array with string-items. Then I would expect the output to be like:  "dct_license_sm": [    "https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"  ],Obviously declared as an array containing a single string. But my results in FME via the FeatureWriter come

Hi ,I am ussing a sqlexecutor for update or insert data in tables. But how do i get the rows updates, inserted ??so i use this in a Emailer ??  

I have a multitude of ring buffers and polygons for which I need to figure out what polygon intersects with what buffer. The task should be easy, but I am stuck here.All data come from the same feature dataset in a file geodatabase (so the spatial reference system is by default the same), however, to be absolutely sure I projected all data before they get into the SpatialFilter to the same EPSG.The settings for the SpatialFilter can be seen hereand to show that there are certainly intersecting areas and buffers that contain candidates I add the graphics view of the ‘Passed’ port and from the ‘Reprojected’ port of the Tester and the Reprojector.

I was trying to compute the distance between a TINSurface and some horizontal polygons (which have a z value, but they are horizontal). I have been trying multiple things to try and get the distance between this two objects. I am kind of surprised that there is not a given transformer to compute the distance or the intersection between 2 given 3d polygons. Maybe a TINSurface is a little complex, but the triangles that compose them should not be complicated.I am a programmer and I think I can program a solution to this problem in a PythonCaller transformer, but I am really surprised there is not a simple answer for this.So if someone knows the answer to this I would appreciate it. If not I think I’ll be forced to program it myself.

Hi everyone,I am working with a large dataset (over 500,000 records) stored in PostGIS, which I am reading into FME and writing to ArcGIS Online (AGOL). My goal is to automate this process by publishing the FME Workbench to FME Flow, so the AGOL feature service updates every few hours.When I overwrite the data, the Workbench runs without any issues. However, I want to truncate the existing data instead of overwriting it. When I attempt to do this, I encounter the following error:413 Client Error: Request Entity Too LargeOccasionally, I receive other request size-related errors as well. I tried adjusting the Features Per Request parameter to 500, but the issue persists.I’d like to ask if anyone has experienced this issue before and what possible solutions or workarounds exist to

Hi. I’ve built a data cleaning workspace that performs a number of different tests, creating or retaining different attributes for each. I’ve created an ‘error type’ attribute to fan out by, have added schema scanners and have followed the gist of this. However, I cannot seem to get the writer to respect the varying schemas for each tab. Set up like this:   Pointers appreciated. Many thanks

Hello, I have seen similar threads but i cannot seem to get what i need to work. New to FME and I have a .img file with 1440 bands. Trying to rename the bands to dates as each band is a dataset a month apart. I have an excel spreadsheet with the original band names and the new names i want but after a lot of trying have not been successful.  Please could I have some help with this.  thank you 

Hi all,I hope to get a few hints in the following issue.Issue - Unable to reproject the dataset into GDA2020 zone 56Dataset URL - The dataset is displayed in the form of WFSDataset Coordinate system - LL-GDA94Dataset EPSG - 4293I have used different transformers to place the dataset in the right location with no success.I think the issue lies in using the right transformers so any hints would be greatly appreciated.Thank you very much in advance,Sebastian.  

I have a workbench that creates output for bentley Microstation. While trying to debug an issue of cells not appearing in the output, I found the VertexCreator deleting an attribute igds_type (microstation format attribute) in the processed features. Pictured is a basic configuration for reproducing the conditions.The version used is 2022.2. I have a simple workaround, but it did take a while to figure out what was going on.I wouldn’t have expected this transformer to touch the attributes at all. Is there a reason for this and does it affect any other attributes? 

Hello,I have GML file with polygons. Polygons are defined by coordinates inside LinearRing attribute. There are some other attributes, one of which is an ID of a polygon.I want to transform that GML to DXF format (only polygons and IDs (as texts) which have to be placed inside the polygons) and I have managed to do so, but I have a problem with some funny shaped polygons for which ID falls outside the polygon.What do I have to do to make sure those texts (IDs) in DXF are put inside corresponding polygons?Thanks in advance for any suggestions.Best regards! 

I'm looking for support with Navisworks (AutoDesk) BIM data (.nwd .nwf .nwc). I need to extract the full 6D information from the model and output it to other formats but also update the 6D information back to the model. Navisworks imports IFC but does not seem to export it. DWF, which can be written with Navisworks, does not hold the 6D information.Any help would be appreciated.

Hi ​@safe I attended the webinar yesterday and wanted to dive a little bit deeper in the AI Agents/transformers. Unfortunately you shared only the video and the slides to the webinar yesterday. Is it possible to get the workbenches and data as well?That would be a great help for a (AI-) beginner like me. Thanks in advance.Tom
