Inspired By a Cornell Project

In 2004, a group of students at Cornell University created a guide,How Do I Do That in ArcGIS/Manifold, detailing how to complete a set of common GIS tasks using ArcGIS and Manifold tools. Their guide became increasingly popular in the GIS community and spawned many different iterations based on other GIS Packages. While FME is not a GIS, many of the operations described in these documents can be done as part of FME ETL workflows

This series attempts to recreate the GIS tasks outlined in theHow do I do that in ArcGIS/Manifold guide, with a twist. Since FME is not a GIS,each exercise in this series will extract data from a source format, transform data, and load data into a destination format.

What’s in the Series

TheHow Do I Do That in FMEseries will focus on the same five categories as the Cornell guide:

  1. Database Management
  2. Database Creation
  3. Data Manipulation
  4. Data Analysis
  5. 数据显示和表示

Throughout the series, you will read from and write to 22 different data formats. You will also gain insight into 61transformersthat will help you get started with FME.

Download the Course as a PDF

In addition to being available on the FME Knowledge Center, theHow Do I Do That in FMEguidebook is available for download as a single PDF containing all 38 articles. Articles can also be downloaded individually by clicking on the gear icon at the top of each article and choosing theExport to PDFoption.
