Feature Representation

In addition to the generic FME feature attributes that FME Workbench adds to all features (see About Feature Type Attributes), this format also adds format-specific attributes (Format Attributes).

Features read from an SXF file consist of geometry and a series of attribute values.

The attribute names are as defined in an associated RSC file. If attribute names are not defined, then default attribute names will be created which correspond to the semantic class code.

Attribute Name Contents
sxf_type

The type of geometric entity stored within the feature. The valid values are:

wkb_point

wkb_multi_point

wkb_line

wkb_multi_line

wkb_polygon

wkb_multi_polygon

sxf_object_class_code

SXF features are associated with an object class code, which is a 32-bit integer.

sxf_object_class_name

The RSC file associated with the reader.

If the Names reader parameter is set to Full Names, then the long format name (usually in Russian) will be stored. Otherwise, a shorter name (usually in English) will be stored.

sxf_title_text

SXF geometry may be associated with a text label, which is then stored in this attribute.
