I'm using FME 213 SP3.

 

How can test for NULL geometry?

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

 

my first idea is to use the GeometryFilter here one output port is NULL.

 

 

Another approach is to expose the fme_type attribute and use the Tester -> fme_typer = fme_no_geom

 

 

Best regards,

 

Stefan

@petejnr What I do is I put a Deaggregator after the reader, then I add a GeometryFilter and draw a connection from every possible geometry over to a writer. Then I run it and see what all types of geometries are associated to that reader object.
