Transformers Supported in FME Workbench

Transformers provide powerful ways to transform data as it moves from the source system to the destination system. If you are familiar with FME mapping files, the transformers provided in Workbench encapsulate the FME Functions and Factories. Transformers manipulate your source data to achieve the desired output. Just like functions and factories, some transformers add attributes to features, others erase attributes, and still others will only transform the geometry. Transformers can operate on individual features, one at a time, or on groups of features.

When the output from the source type or a transformer is connected to another transformer, Workbench makes an implicit connection between all attributes that have the same name. If necessary, Workbench automatically assigns attributes to transformers based on both the transformer itself (usually one specific attribute like count or length, for example) and then appends the attributes contained in the input connection.

For more information on Workbench transformers and a complete list of transformers, refer to the FME Workbench online documentation.
