Column-Aligned Text (CAT) Feature Representation
In addition to the generic FME feature attributes that FME Workbench adds to all features (seeAbout Feature Type Attributes), this format adds the format-specific attributes described in this topic.
The CAT feature attributes consists of user attributes that were specified as integer, string or real in theSCHEMA
parameter.
In addition, all CAT features contain acat_type
attribute, which is set tocat_none
if there is no geometry, or tocat_point
if coordinates were specified.cat_type
also indicates that the feature was generated from a CAT file.
The table below further specifies these attributes and their allowed values.

CAT point features specify a single x, y (and an optional z) coordinate, in addition to any associated user-defined attributes.
