Transformers

Hi,I have 2 layers one representing lines and the other layer is polygons.I need to create a point at the center of the polygon when a line intersect a polygon,can this be possible. thanks for your help.

HiWe have an FME Server 2018.1.1 installation on RHEL7. For the fmeserver user, that runs the engine jobs, when writing a directory or file the permissions are set to rwx------ (700) with fmeserver being the owner user and owner group.We have other users that need to access these files too, so we'd like it so the default permission for fmeserver write directories/files to be rwxrwxr-x (775).We have added the fmeserver into a second group to allow access to other r/w locations and we have also added specific users into the fmeserver group.We get the same behavior if the fmeserver is writing to a location if it is the owner of or just part of another group.Any insights would be greatly appreciated. CheersAdie  

Hi All,I am having the point data in which has X, Y for each point and trying to convert this to a polyline. but somehow I am not getting desired results. This point is derived from JSON query it has X, Y and one common field I am trying to use vertex cretor and then sorter on the common field and at the end, i am using LIne builder. but i am not getting desired results.Can someone please suggest a way to resolve this?Thank you in advance .   

Hello Guyswe have wmts service we could open with no problem in ArcGis , but we are unable to open it in FMEAny suggestionhttps://tansiqsat.momra.gov.sa/tileserver.php?/wmts 

I want to calculate the cell distances between all cells within a feature class grid. Exactly the same as the game MinesweeperI currently have the cells as a feature class within an esri file geodatabase, but can easily convert it to a raster grid.I have included an example below. The original data contains 11000 cells with different labels but I have simplified in the example:For each cell I want to find how many cells apart they are from all other cells.. Example here is for cell A2. I would then iterate this for every cell in the grid to produce the final csv. I have attempted using cost distance tools within a GIS, but It's unable to cope with the data.I have access to FME 2014, but looking through the help files I've been unable to find a way to do this.Is anybody able to give me some guidance as to how this may be achieved? Many thanks

Hi FME Experts, I have a field, I would like to create a new field based on duplication of the records in this field . as the attached image, is there any way to do that?  Thanks in advance

I have some line-strings and I would like to create polygons with shape like in the images based on the line. It looks like hexagon but all edges do not have the same length. Can Bufferer create such polygon based on the lines? Or do you have any idea how i can create such polygon? Thanks in advance.

Hello all,I've got a lot of parcel data sets I need to reproject, and I want to use the CSMapReprojector as this allows the use of ellipsoid heights, however I've just noticed that the tool is converting my true curves to densified lines. Is there any way around this? If I can't get it to work, then I won't be able to use the CSMR.Thank you!

HI All,I am trying to breakdown the JSON message {"version":254051434,"logicalTransaction":{"uuid":"009be648-ce4e-4444-ae2d-a2627e427927","edits":[{"type":"Attach MetaData","metadata":{"objectId":"009be648-ce4e-4444-ae2d-a2627e427927","objectType":"TRANSACTION","additionalId":null,"key":"ProjectID","values":[{"value":"Qteam_Tori_Pilot"}]},"groupId":1},{"type":"Attach MetaData","metadata":{"objectId":"009be648-ce4e-4444-ae2d-a2627e427927","objectType":"TRANSACTION","additionalId":null,"key":"ToolName","values":[{"value":"tori-tx-creator"}]},"groupId":2},{"type":"Attach MetaData","metadata":{"objectId":"009be648-ce4e-44

Hello, I have a custom transformer.  My flow is that it takes path to set of raster files. Then it clips some of those, merge together using raster mosaicer and save in different location. Then I want to delete file from source location and move on. Problem is that using SystemCaller rmdir I get information that those files that were clipped cannot be deleted because they are being used by another process. When I set a breakpoint just before SystemCaller, when files are already clipped and merged I couldn't delete those files in windows explorer as well. There was information that FME.EXE is using those files. If I remove clipper transformer then I don't have that problem. So I assume that clipper somehow holds handle to those files. Do you know a workaround for this problem?

I want to use LineOnLineOverlayer similar to how PointOnLineOverlayer works, to overlay two line feature classes (one that has measures) and extract measures to the other line feature class. These are features from an LRS db so they should be coincident and intersect exactly. However, I'm getting unexpected results and am unable to extract measures once the LineOnLineOverlayer has run. Is there a better way to do this?

Just recording this for anybody that needs it. FME Datainspector shows a CW/CCW (clockwise/counter-clockwise) direction for an arc under the geometry, but this value can't be extracted as a trait using a geometrypropertyextractor and the arcpropertyextractor doesn't list any attribute that return clockwise/counterclockwise.

This seems like a simple operation, but I can't seem to figure it out. I have a feature writer output that contains the summary field total features written. I'm trying to use this attribute to populate 4 records from a table from another feature class after the writer is done. I just need the same "total features written" to be applied to 4 rows.I'm trying to get 1487 in all of the totalfeatures field.I'm also trying to use "total features written" to do some calculations after the fact, but everything comes up missing.

Hello!I'm using a dissolver before a pointonareaoverlayer and I'm trying to figure out how to be able to pass the areas from the dissolver to the pointonareaoverlayer before the points, so I can improve performance. I have it set up so it should read in all the records for the dissolver before the points.

Dear, I have a rectangle with width 2 and length 3. How do I increase the width to 3 and length 5? The angle can not be changed. Thank you!

HiI have downloaded the workspace 'Buffer On Left or Right Side Only' from the FME Knowledge Centre (https://knowledge.safe.com/articles/20651/buffer-on-left-or-right-side-only.html) I am following this exactly as I want to create buffers on either the left or right side of a road. I then want to create polygons from these new segments (buffers). I have a separate line (split into 44 segments) which I am using to split the buffer by. For some reason it keeps missing out one section. I seem to have an overlap at this section when I run the 'Common segment finder'. This then stops the polygonbuilder from creating just one segment.  I am really stuck in how to fix this. Any ideas would be really appreciated. I have attached screenshots within Inspector of the common segment finder 'overlap' and 'no overlap' as well as the outputs of the polygon builder 'polygon' and 'unused line' Thank you.

Hello everybody,please, is there any possibility to set font size, color and name for string in table for MS WORD output? I use MSWORD Styler, but for "Content type: Table" there is no possibility to edit font parameters. Have You any idea please?And is there any possibility how to place image next to paragraph, not below? Thank You for tips!Lubo

Hi,I was wondering whether some basic operators like erode or dilate exist for raster processing? These operators enable opening and closing operation on raster, operations that are very useful.Thanks for your answer,Florian

Hello everybody, im looking for a transformer that replace the "eleminate of Arcgis", i want to merge the small polygone (less than 5000m2) with neighboring polygons that have the largest area or the longest shared border.i heard that sliver remover can do it but im not sureThanks

I have starting values like 1.35m and I would like to round up to the nearest half a meter, so in this example 1.35 becomes 1.501.89 becomes 2.00 etc.

I'm looking for a way to extend a line until it touches another line. The extender is nice but I don't want to specify a length. Can somebody help? Thanks

Hello,  I'm writing a workbench that downloads sentinal-1 SAR Geotiffs, reprojects, coerces that to look right, then overlays some vectors on them. The input files very is size but are about a gigabyte and I want my output to be around 5mb.  At the moment it is failing at the mapnik rasterizer because of 'bad allocation' which my research tells me is usually related to running out of memory.  Is there a way to compress by raster at the start of the process so it is both faster and less likely to fail?  

I need help joining a table based on whether or not a feature falls within a date-time range.Table A: Has an attribute with unique recorded date-times for all 3,233 recordsTable B: Has a "Start Date-Time" and an "End Date-Time" field for all 29 recordsI built this query:and it was able to join and return 2,731 records that met the criteria. Here's a sample of what was joined: My issue now is how to join return the other 502 records that may not fall the range listed above. I've tried several iterations such as NOT BETWEEN, IS NO, <>, etc.Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks. Note: Tables are generated from a CSV so that's why I chose InlineQuerier.FME 2018.1.1.2 (Build 18586) 64-bit

Hello, I have a problem to find overlapping lines with FME, in a DWG file : If there are common vertices between lines, SpatialRelator (or SpatialFilter) works.Wheareas, if there is no common vertex, overlaps are not found. I tried LineOnLineOverlayer, Intersector and TopologyBuilder, but They have not fixed the problem.I read these articles, but I didn't find a solution :https://knowledge.safe.com/questions/1633/intersector-overlap-issue.htmlhttps://knowledge.safe.com/questions/58290/find-overlapping-lines-in-network.html Is there another solution to do this ? Thank you.

I am trying to leverage the 'Adjacent Feature Attributes' function in AttributeManager to generate a list of unique IDs (UID) for a set of records. In this example I have generated a UID for a single record based on if the record in 'col0' contains a "G" and concatenating the CSV Line Number with 'col2' (this is a timestamp, so I removed the colons to avoid issues down the line). I now want to replicate that _UID_G field to the other records until I hit another 'G' type record to ultimately look like this: Here is my issue: the number of CSV Lines between records that have 'G' in col0 can fluctuate for each CSV that I run. I am trying to dynamically set the Number for Prior Features in the AttributeManager:  I think I need to build a list from the CSV file I am using first, then figure out how to count the number of records that exist between each "G" feature. From there I can use a TestFilter and address each unique number of
