Esri Users to Challenge FME

Safe Software will kick off the FME Data Access Challenge at the Esri International User Conference in San Diego, CA, USA from 11th to 15th July 2011. Participants will find out how they can solve their toughest data transformation headaches with FME.

Esri UC attendees are invited to bring samples of their problem data to the Safe Software booth (#1206) where an interoperability expert will be on hand to examine their challenge and demonstrate specifically how FME can help. Those unable to attend the conference can participate by submitting the details of their data challenge online at the link below.
