You are converting raster data to vector data but expecting FME (and us) to guess at what output you require. The rectangle is probably just the raster outline. Try inserting some sort of raster handling transformer into the workflow such as a DEMGenerator or a ContourGenerator. I'm not too familiar with GRID format but you should at least get some form of output as a starting point. If not experiment with other transformers.
Also make sure the destination permits the correct geometries (for a DEM use shape_pointz geometries for preference). Mark Mark Ireland, Product Support Engineer Safe Software Inc.

GRID is a raster format. Are you looking to aggregate areas of like values into polygons? Are you expecting a regular grid of points? There are lots of things you can do with rasters, but we need to know what results you expect/want. > > Jason > > > --------------------------------- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of dini hairi > Sent: Wednesday, January 25, 2006 20:39 > To: fme > Subject: [fme] convert ArcGIS GRID to shapefile(polygon) > > > > Dear All, > > I still using FME 2005...I need to convert ArcGIS GRID to shapefile(polygon)...I tried it too many times using workbench but my output is a one rectangle... > > I choose ESRI ARCGIS Binary Grid in Format Gallery and convert to shapefile in workbench...is there any transfomer need to use for converting that format? or i choose wrong format?can you all help me on this... > Thank you... > > > > Get the maximum benefit from your FME, FME Objects, or SpatialDirect via our Professional Services team.
