Recorded Sessions

Once upon a time, in a land of scattered datasets and locked-away imagery a great challenge arose: how to transform a simple field observation into a majestic 3D kingdom. This session tells the tale of an end-to-end lifecycle, where FME orchestrates an assembly of tools. Survey123 and AI-powered data enrichment all drvien from FME ending in an 3D model.

We explore the potential of AI embeddings, explaining how unstructured text and imagery can be converted into numerical vectors to enable semantic search. Showing how FME acts as the central orchestration engine, managing data extraction and communicating with open-source models to generate embeddings without the need for complex infrastructure. Concluding with practical examples, including a multi-lingual data search and an image-based property finder, illustrating how organisations can easily implement sophisticated AI capabilities with FME.

Manually populating metadata is nobody's idea of fun, yet it's essential for effective data discovery. This session explores how FME can automate the generation of metadata for any dataset, regardless of format. We show how AI can be used to generate metadata that empowers SMEs to 'refine', rather than create metadata and making data cataloguing far less honerous!
