Writing Vector Data as Text

Height, clutter and vector data are always written by the Planet writer as binary data. However, vector data can also be written as text data, which lists both feature points and attribute data as separate files.

This table lists the attributes that control which text is written.

Attribute Name	Contents
planet_data_file_name	When set in the writer feature type, FME will write out the vector data as a text file with the name that this is set to.
planet_attribute_file_ name	Specifies the name of an optional attribute text file. If the planet_attribute_description and planet_attribute_value are also assigned, then a text file will be written with the attribute value enumerated for all features.
planet_attribute_ description	Specifies the name of the attribute that will be listed in planet_attribute_file_name.
planet_attribute_value	A number that will be listed next to the planet_attribute_description in planet_attribute_file_name for each feature.
