This is a great opportunity. I have used FME on several past projects myself. It is an extremely powerful tool if you need to convert data to and from multiple formats. As Niels indicated it is the engine that drives the data interoperability extension. Autodesk also licenses parts of it for their conversion tools in Map and Civil 3D. I also believe it what allows those products to connect to SDE and other data formats directly for editing.

Hi all,
If you are not familiar with the Feature Manipulation Engine (FME), also the technology behind the Data Interoperability Extension, you should be. This technology is an essential and key piece of our GIS efforts here at UMass.
You can find out more by attending their world tour event in Boston coming up on April 12th.
