Course Resources
This course uses a number of sample datasets and workspaces.
On Your Training Computer
The data used in this training course is based on open data from the City of Vancouver, Canada.
Most exercises ask you to assume the role of a city planner at the fictional city of Interopolis and to solve a particular problem using this data.
Whether it's a local computer or a virtual computer hosted in the cloud, you'll find resources for the examples and exercises in the manual at the following locations:
| Location | Resource |
|---|---|
| C:\FMEData2018\Data | Datasets used by the City of Interopolis |
| C:\FMEData2018\Resources | Other resources used in the training |
| C:\FMEData2018\Workspaces | Workspaces used in the student exercises |
| C:\FMEData2018\Output | The location in which to write exercise output |
| <documents>\FME\Workspaces | The default location to save FME workspaces |
You should also find FME pre-installed, plus a digital copy of this manual.
Please alert your instructor if any item is missing from your setup.
You can find the latest version of FME Desktop and FME Server for Windows, Mac, and Linux - together with the latest Beta versions - on the Safe Software web site.
