Regional Geographic Information System (REGIS) 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).
REGIS features consist of geometry and predefined attributes only. It does not make use of any user-defined attribution. All REGIS features contain a regis_type attribute, which identifies its geometric type.
Attribute Name |
Contents |
---|---|
regis_type |
The type of the geometry supported by REGIS file. This attribute will contain one of: regis_point regis_line reigs_polygon regis_text Default: No default |
Line
regis_type: regis_line
This specifies a line feature. At least two distinct coordinates have to be specified in order for FME to process the feature correctly. There are no additional attributes for this geometric type.
Point
regis_type: regis_point
This is the point feature. There are no additional attributes for this geometric type.
Polygon
regis_type: regis_polygon
This is a polygon feature. In this version of the REGIS Reader and Writer, only simple polygons are supported (donut features are not supported). REGIS polygons consist of at least four coordinates, where the first and last coordinates are exactly the same. There are no additional attributes for this geometric type.
Text
regis_type: regis_text
This is a text feature. Exactly one coordinate must be specified for this text feature.
The following table lists the special FME attribute names used to control the REGIS text settings.
Attribute Name |
Contents |
---|---|
regis_rotation |
Degrees by which the text string is rotated. Range: 0...360 Default: 0 |
regis_text_string |
The text string of the text feature. Range: Maximum 176 characters Default: Blank |
regis_text_size |
The size of the text string. Range: 32-bit floating point number Default: 10 |
