OGC Open GeoSMS Reader

The OGC Open GeoSMS Reader allows FME® to read in a OGC Open GeoSMS.

Overview

The OGC Open GeoSMS format stores geometry as a point encoded as latitude and longitude in a URL. The function of an OGC Open GeoSMS is to communicate location quickly and efficiently using an SMS message. The location encoded in a URL can then be read by both humans and other devices that require location information.

Reader Overview

The OGC Open GeoSMS reader produces FME features for all feature data held in a geosms file.

The reader extracts features one at a time from the file and passes them on to the rest of FME for further processing.

The OGC Open GeoSMS Reader is based on the underlying reader in the Text File Reader/Writer.
