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---

If you are using the PointOnPointOverlayer there is a section in there for Attribute Accumulation which allows merging attributes or creating lists of attributes for features that overlap.

 

There are many different spatial transformers that allow you to test various spatial relationships with options of joining attributes. If you check the help doc for the PointOnPointOverlayer there is a Spatial Transformers Comparison table under the Usage Notes section that you might find helpful: https://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME-Form-Documentation/FME-Transformers/Transformers/pointonpointoverlayer.htm
