FME Learning Journey – Spatial ETL Projects with FME Form & Flow

FME
License

Welcome to my learning repository showcasing hands-on ETL automation projects built while completing official FME training by Safe Software. This repository is designed to highlight my growing expertise in FME Form (formerly Desktop) and FME Flow (formerly Server), especially for Spatial Data Automation Roles.


Training-Based Project Tracks

Each folder documents exercises and mini-projects built from real Safe Academy training paths, customized to simulate real-world GIS workflows.

Folder Description Status
FME_Form_Basic Mini-projects from FME Form Basic Course (20 hours) Completed
FME_Form_Advanced In-progress workflows using advanced parameterization, schema mapping, dynamic fanouts, and writers (~30 hours) In Progress
FME_Flow_Authoring To-be-added: automation and publishing projects using FME Flow (20 hours) Planned (Aug 2025)

What You'll Find Here

  • Practical use of core and advanced transformers
  • Workflows designed with parameters, schema mapping, and conditional logic
  • Error handling, logging, and debugging best practices
  • Focus on spatial and non-spatial data formats

  • Key Skills & Tools

  • FME Form (Basic + Advanced)

  • FME Flow (Authoring Concepts + Practices)

  • Data Formats: SHP, KML, GPKG, CSV, Excel & more

  • Key Transformers: AttributeManager, SchemaMapper, Logger, Tester, GeometryFilter, StatisticsCalculator, Fanout, Dynamic Writer & more.

  • Data transformation and integration using FME Workbench

  • Automating workflows using FME Flow (Server)

  • Spatial data processing and format conversions

  • Schema mapping and data quality control

  • Publishing and managing Flow apps with real-time automation triggers


Why This Repo?

After a career break (May 2022 - Jun 2024), I'm transitioning into ETL/Data Automation roles where FME is a core tool. This repository reflects my structured effort to:

  • Gain official FME certifications
  • Translate learning into reusable mini-projects
  • Build confidence and credibility for Spatial Data Engineering Opportunities

Each folder includes:

  • .fmw workspace files
  • Exercise description
  • Data
  • Workspace Screenshot
  • Lessons learned

Let’s Connect

I’m actively exploring entry-level FME Analyst / GIS Data Automation roles.
