We have a client that has a unique need and I'm wondering if it's even possible in FME. There goal is to have a csv or table that contains a dataset name, itemID, and layerID. They also have a GDB file containing the datasets. The would like to have a function to cycle through their csv table, and overwrite an individual layer in an AGOL hosted feature class. The caveat is this hosted feature class may contain many layers and as far as I know you can't update just one layer. We have been racking our brain and FME seems like it may be our last hope. Here's the short version of the workflowRead update table -> Read GDB -> Update Hosted Feature Service Layer Any advice would be appreciated,Chad

Hi all, I have building footprints, DEM and DOM data, I have finished 3D modelling for DEM with overlaying DOM, and 3D buildings, while the bottom part of some buildings, especially those located along the foot of the mountains, are under the terrain. I have tried many ways like 3Dforce with values minZ, or chopper buildings to points and acquire the points cooridinate Z value, and also clamp function, while all failed. Anyone can help? thanks a lot.

I want to convert a ESRI Multipatch Feature class to IFC and wonder what the best practice is to write the feature into IFC writer. I am using FME Form 2023. Appreciate your help! Thanks

Bonjour j'ai un "nuage de points" et je cherche a les trier par distance :le resultat attendu est le suivant:le point 2 est proche du point 1, le point 5 est proche du point 2, le point 3 est proche du point 5 etc...j'utilise un neighborfinder en candidates only mais le probleme est que dans ce cas j'ai comme resultatle point 2 est proche du point 1et le point 1 est proche du 2et je ne les trie pas  il faudrait que lorsque le point 1 est traité il "disparaisse" je ne suis pas sur d’être très clairmerci a la communauté de votre aide   

i have two geodatabases. geodatabase 1 containing all lookup tables. One lookup table is source_table in which there is a column named "source_table_name" is added. Based on the values in "source_table_name " I want to select the feature class from geodatabase 2. I am getting output but its routing through generic port of the FeatureReader so no schema is being added. Can anyone help me solve this issue.

I'm new, so any help is appreciated. I have a SQL table that has lat/longs.  Want to copy table into SQL Server SDE feature dataset with geom column.  Tried the feature writer, but don't see where I can select the feature dataset.

I have a lookup table in which some feature class name is mentioned. I have to select in the feature reader only those features from geodatabase which in there in the lookup table. How to do that. One more problem here all my feature classes is in the feature dataset in input geodatabase. In output I want this outside feature dataset

Hi! I have a gml file that i have downloaded from the statistical bureau of sweden. This is the data source: https://share.scb.se/OV0105/Xml/PD/pd_befolkningsfordelning_totalbefolkning_nt.xml It is in GML format and the data is structured in 10km squares. However, I can't seem to be able to convert it to any other format. The geometry im getting is just a bounding box for the entire dataset, not the specific 10km squares. I have found very limited resources to help with this problem online. The final destination should be in an enterprise geodatabase.  Has anyone else had trouble with this? Thankful for any help.  /Alex

I am trying to run a Shell Script from the System Caller but am running into issues when accessing the various gdal programs that are called from within the script. These are stored away in usr/bin/ and "globally" accessible through the PATH file. The folder where the command is run is generated by FME in earlier steps, so its not as straight forward as copying the gdal files to the folder. Is there some workaround to get this functioning?

I have two datasets, one with 'old' parcels and one with 'new' parcels. I need to find out which old parcels turned into new ones and come up with a was - is list. Desired output: feature OLD parcel XX712 with a list with new parcel attribute(s): 557, 516feature OLD parcel XX713 with a list with new parcel attribute(s): 584feature OLD parcel XX713 with a list with new parcel attribute(s): 584feature OLD parcel XX621 with a list with new parcel attribute(s): 189 What I have tried so far using the SpatialRelator with spatial predicates: Contains, Within, EqualsOnly works for parcels that stayed the same geometry wise. It is possible that geometry changed, see the example in the screenshots.  IntersectsThis works but its giving me too much suppliers. When a parcel geometry has stayed the same its giving me a supplier from the parcel next to it because the outer lines are touching.  TouchesGiving me only the touching parcel to the side Am I doing something wrong with the se

We have some Annotation points all in one feature class. We are looking to find duplicated annotation text that are close to each other. We used the NeighbourFinder and attached the attributes from the neighbouring annotation to the base annotation. This allows us to see that, for example, record OD=1 is close to OD=2. Then a Test Filter is used to check if the TextString is the same on the base annotation when compared to the neighbour.  From the results of the TestFilter we have a list of annotations that can be reviewed as it looks like they are close to each other and have the same text string (which may not be needed).  So, for an example, say there are 100 annotation points that come out of the TestFilter. For each of these points, one of the other points in that selection of 100 points is the point it is related to/neighbouring. So, we don't actually need a list of all 100 points, just 1 of the points from each relationship, resulting in 50 points.  Currently we are

Hello, I am writing features to a block that was created in a template. The attribute definitions in the block definition have their positions locked, but when I write a new file using the tempalte and block definition all the attribute definitions labels are moveable. I have been playing with settings and trying to figure out why it changes in the new file, but have not succeeded.  Original BlockNew Feature (See all the insertion points on the text, text is also moveable)  

When the user selects first parameters the second parameter values should populate based on the first parameter selected.EX: first parameters has values A,B,CSecond parameter has values 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9If the user selects 'A' from first parameter; second parameter should display 1,2,3 values when the dropdown is selected.

Hi,I'm using the FTPcaller to upload data on a weekly basis. In order to preserve data already posted, the new file has an changing date in the file name.I've configured the Transfer > URL portion of the FTPCaller to accept an attribute value which works fine. However, when I try and do this with the Upload From A File > File To Upload portion, the FTPCaller fails, saying it cannot find the file:Any idea what I am doing wrong?

I have two datasets:A calibrated road dataset. Every vertex of the line has the measure value (kilometer point).A table with car accidents with a field that indicates the kilometer point where it happpenedI need to create Point geometries for the accident using both datasets. In other words, I need to create a point event layer.As you can imagine, the accidents don't happen at an exact vertex of the road.Can FME create that point event layer?I've tried using the Snipper transformer, but I'm not getting the results I want.

I also want to know the relevance of this setting

I want to connect two databases (Oracle) in an SQLExecuter Transformer. This is to compare the changes. Currently I can add only one connection. Is it possible through User Parameter? Thanks in advance Harish

What determines the origin for the PointCloudCombiner? I can set the interval between points, but can I control their origin?

 I have no problem accessing my Trimble connect account through the connector and can see all relevant maps etc. but am unsure whether i need a reader to be connected and what that looks like. I want to download GPS data that is captured in Trimble connect and process it through into shapefiles based on the various layers in Trimble connect using FME. A side question would be whether or not the Trimble Connect connector can process image files as well that have been collected with the GPS points.Appreciate any assistance from the community :)

Hi everyone. I have a question regarding a FME application where I want to compare certain measurements. The mesurements are imported to FME by LandXML format and the basic relevant data are the cordinates (X,Y and Z), the date of the measurement and the name of the point. Example:Data i imported.2024-01-01: P1; x=13,31, y=10,00;z=2,20P2; x=11,21, y=9,87;z=2,10P3; x=14,31, y=14,12;z=2,20 2024-01-02:P1; x=13,32, y=10,00;z=2,19P2; x=11,21, y=9,88;z=2,10P3; x=14,31, y=14,12;z=2,19P4; x=9,12, y=14,12;z=2,21 2024-01-03:P1; x=13,33, y=10,01;z=2,19P2; x=11,21, y=9,87;z=2,10P3; x=14,31, y=14,12;z=2,19P4; x=9,12, y=14,12;z=2,21 I want to import and generate graphs that shows the differences in plane and height (2 line graphs whit one line for each point and the date in x-scale) from the first measurement of the point. To complicate it a little further, as it shows it is possible for new points to be added later in the serie that will in later measurements be compared to the first measurement of

I have closed and open FME and run the workspace, I have enabled Visual Preview, and Feature Caching as well but still can not see the results in transformers. I appreciated if someone can help me.Thanks

Hi all, after NDVI calculation I select pixel values within a certain range. Afterwards I use a clipper to obtain only the desired area. Based on pixel values I get the following result:Afterwards I used "RasterExtentsCoercer" in combination with "Generalizer" to get smooth areas. It would be nice if the very small holes (yellow example) are combined to the detected area. Only larger holes should remain! How can I do this?   Thanks in advance 

Hi,I am wanting to create a count that increases if a condition has been met. So as an example, if TIME is greater than 100 then the COUNT increases, otherwise it stays the same: TIME - COUNT20 - 170 - 1130 - 2220 - 340 - 380 - 3370 - 4 Been stuck trying to figure this out for a while. With Python this would be easier with the use of variables but I am struggling with FME on this one. I see the Count transformer has 'Group By' capability but I don't think that helps me for this situation.

I am sending JSON data to a Text File Writer. The Text File Writer has its MIME type set to "application/json", yet the response Content-Type remains "text/plain". Is there a way to force this to "application/json"? (Note: Using a JSON writer does set the content type to application/json, but it formats the response as a JSON array, which is not suitable for my calling application.) Second, the application that will be using this Data Streaming service sometimes requires specific HTTP status codes to be returned. Is there a way to force the HTTP status code e.g. to 400?
