Safe Software FME Desktop 2009.5666

FME Desktop is a flexible and powerful spatial ETL toolset that makes it easy for you to translate, transform and integrate spatial data in any format or application.

Here are the top ten features, capabilities and components available in FME Desktop:

Support for 200+ Formats
Read and write data in over 200 formats with a single toolset. FME Desktop format support is unrivalled in the industry and supports CAD, GIS, raster, database, 3D and BIM formats; for example, AutoCAD DWF/DWG, Bentley Microstation Design file, ESRI Shape, GeoTIFF, Industry Foundation Class STEP Files (IFC) and Oracle Spatial. You can also execute SQL queries against your spatial database, including ESRI ArcSDE, MySQL, PostGIS and SQL Server Spatial 2008.

Graphical Authoring Environment
Quickly and easily define data flows with point and click. An intuitive authoring environment, FME Workbench makes it easy for you to graphically specify data transformations ("workspaces") that manipulate your spatial data and its associated attribution. FME Workbench is also the design tool used to create spatial data flows for FME Server.

Data Transformations
Ensure you see the spatial data the way that you want to see it. The Transformer Gallery offers more than 300 transformers to help you easily and accurately manipulate the geometry and attributes of your spatial data as it moves from the source system to the destination system; for example:

* Perform geometric operations
* Rename attributes
* Calculate new attribute values
* Join attributes from a database to feature geometry
* Adjust feature symbology.
