Feature Representation
In addition to the generic FME feature attributes that FME Workbench adds to all features (see About Feature Attributes), this format adds the format-specific attributes described in this section.
The Geodatabase modules make use of the following special attribute names.
Attribute Name |
Contents |
filegdb_type |
The type of geometric entity stored within the feature. The valid values are listed below: geodb_no_geom geodb_point geodb_multipoint geodb_polyline geodb_polygon |
Features read or written also have an attribute for each column in the database table.
Tables
filegdb_type: geodb_no_geom
Features with this value consist of no coordinates.
Points
filegdb_type: geodb_point
Features with this value are point features.
Multipoints
filegdb_type: geodb_multipoint
Features with this value are multi-part features consisting of points.
Polylines
filegdb_type: geodb_polyline
Features with this value consist of one or more linear geometries (arcs, lines, or paths consisting of arcs and/or lines).
Polygons
filegdb_type: geodb_polygon
Features with this value consist of one or more area geometries (polygons, ellipses, or donuts).
