Example

Consider the following XML document:

           

           
   
            
      
             Historic Park
      
             Natural Environment Park
      
             National Park      
      
             Protected Area

The following xfMap maps each element into an FME feature.A class attribute is also added to the feature,but we use the class's long descriptive name rather than class's code as its value:
