@michael.perry5, FME rely on Geotiff world files or the information in the header to get coordinates.
*.tif.aux.xml are auxiliary files that ArcGIS uses to read coordinate system, Currently we do not suppor this but will be adding support for future releases (http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/10.6/manage-data/raster-and-images/auxiliary-files.htm)

Can you make a copy of your existing world file and rename the extension to *.tfw and try again using FME?

We only guess the world file extension that haswat the end so anything with*.tifw or*.tifw or*.tiffw or *.wld

Forcing the coordinate system will not work and it needs the GCPs(ground control point) which should be stored in the world file.

Can you share (a small version of) one of those tiff's here?

Hi there,

Also having the same issue here.Geotiffs are loading in ArcMap properly but not in FME.If you use the CoordinateSystemSetter it will force the image to the coordinate system but the origin will still be 0,0.

That definitely sounds as something wrong with the georeferencing or coordinate system (and something that shouldn't really happen within FME).You can try adding a CoordinateSystemSetter to your workspace to specifically set the coordinate system to LL84

If you send it to an Inspector and have a background map showing in the Data Inspector, does the GeoTiff show up in the right location?

In inspector it displays but from 0,0 in the top left corner and the map displays with unknown coordinate system and unknown units.This matches the properties at the top but down in the IFMERaster bit it seems to have the coordinate system and control points but is just ignoring it

If it's a GeoTiff the georeferencing is stored in the file's header.FME should be able to read that, what do you see if you use a GeoTiff reader and then direct it to an Inspector?
