FME User Course
Overview
Learn from the experts how to use the essential components of the Feature Manipulation Engine (FME) through hands-on lab training. Join our two-day (1/3 lecture, 2/3 exercise and problem solving) course and learn to unlock the powerful features of FME to more effectively manage your data translation and data transformation challenges. FME Training can help open up a whole new world of possibilities for you. Questions are encouraged throughout the class and attendees are encouraged to bring their own sample data files.
Learning Objectives
- Build complex translations using FME Workbench
- View and inspect data using the FME Viewer
- Apply best practices to large workspaces
- Manipulate data geometry and attributes with transformers
- Work with multiple datasets in a single workspace
- Create low-maintenance, reusable workspaces
Training workbooks, data and answers to problems are provided.
