GIS People often have to fight agains data conversions. The constellation of Desktop GIS suites make our life harder and harder while approaching to ETL processes. A relevant issue in ETL processes is the so called “data formats discovery”. Finding information about which software is supporting which spatial data type can turn a simple routing task into a “mission impossible” waist of time.
To overcome this inconvenient we can refer to the support guide of a famous ETL software: FME. FME is a complete spatial ETL solution that enables GIS Professionals to quickly translate, transform, integrate and distribute spatial data. In our case it simplifies our life by means of the “Supported Formats” guide.
Visiting this link [WWW] you may find a list of supported types from this software (quite a huge list!), however by clicking on each single data types you will be able to access to PDF version data sheets of each data source, complete of description, supported types, versions, and lot more.
