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).
GDMS features consist of both geometry and attributes. The attributes on the features depend on whether the feature is a result of input VERTICES and CROSSREF files, or whether it is from a TEXTDATA file.
The gdms_feature_type identifies the entity’s geometric type and has these ranges:
- gdms_annotation
- gdms_line
- gdms_point
- gdms_polygon
- gdms_text_line
- gdms_text_polygon
- gdms_text_symbol
Annotations
gdms_type: gdms_annotation
GDMS annotations represent point features in 2D and have the following specific attributes:
- gdms_text
- gdms_angle
- gdms_height
- gdms_text_layer_number
Lines
gdms_type: gdms_line
GDMS line features represent linear features in 2D. Line features do not have any specific attributes.
gdms_type: gdms_text_line
GDMS line features represent linear features in 2D. Line features do not have any specific attributes.
Points
gdms_type: gdms_point
GDMS point features represent point features in 2D. Point features do not have any specific attributes.
gdms_type: gdms_text_symbol
GDMS text symbols represent point features in 2D and have the following specific attributes:
- gdms_angle
- gdms_length
- gdms_size
- gdms_symbol_number
- gdms_text_layer_number
Polygons
gdms_type: gdms_polygon
GDMS polygon features represent polygon features in 2D. Polygon features do not have any specific attributes.
gdms_type: gdms_text_polygon
GDMS text polygon features represent polygon features in 2D. Polygon features do not have any specific attributes.
