Sounds like an interesting application here.
Now, what is the format of the blob? Is it a tiff, or a raw, or ???. I
suspect we may be able to do something, may take 2 passes and be a bit
tricky, depending on the answer to the format question.
In the earliest of FME days, there was a project where design files were
loaded in their entirety as BLOBs into an SDE record (the geometry was
the bounding box of the DGN file). The @File function in FME was
designed to either read an entire file into an attribute, or write an
entire file from an attribute. I see that @File has never made it in as
a transformer, perhaps that day has come now. But anyway, the short of
this is that if the blob is in a well understood format, we can get it
out to a file via @File, and then work with it from there.
Please let us know more details and we can go from there.
