Custom Coordinate Systems

Although a custom coordinate system cannot be published to FME Server, there are two ways they can be made available to the FME Server:

• Modify the MyCoordSysDefs.fmw file:

  Add its definition to the following file where you have an FME Engine installed:

  <FMEServerDir>\Server\fme\Reproject\MyCoordSysDefs.fme

  MyCoordSysDefs.fme is a file that contains custom coordinate systems defined by the user.

• Add to the shared resource directory:

  Place custom coordinate systems in the CoordinateSystems shared resources directory.

  Each FME Engine used by FME Server can have a shared resources directory defined for it. The location of the directory is based on the FME_SHARED_RESOURCE_DIR parameter in the Engine's configuration file:

  <FMEServerDir>\Server\fmeEngineConfig_<instanceName>.txt

  • Locate the value of the parameter in the configuration file:

  FME_SHARED_RESOURCE_DIR "C:/Apps/FMEServer/Server/Resources/shared"

  • Within this directory, create a subdirectory called "CoordinateSystems", and place your custom coordinate systems in that directory.
