The Feature Manipulation Engine (FME) is an integrated collection of Spatial ETL (Extract, Transform and Load) tools for data transformation and data translation.

With FME, organisations dealing with different types of data stored in different places can:

• combine data from multiple sources into a single translation run
• join disparate systems
• extend lifetimes of legacy systems through interoperability
• exchange data between CAD-based systems and GIS systems
• perform quality assurance tests on spatial data
• access data in their existing application environment provided we support their application
• and do much more...

FME Components

FME contains three core components:

• Workbench
  A point-and-click interface that makes performing very sophisticated processing tasks a breeze.
• Universal Viewer
  This useful utility allows quick viewing of data formats. Users can preview translation data (attributes and geometry), before performing translations using Workbench or Universal Translator
• Universal Translator
  Users can easily transfer and save data into as many as 150 different formats via a drag-and-drop interface
