All Implemented Interfaces:

GPTool

public class MakeWCSLayer
extends AbstractGPTool

Creates an image layer from a WCS service. This tool is one of the few tools that can accept a WCS service as an input. Therefore this tool can be used to convert a WCS service to a raster layer, which can then be used by a geoprocessing tool. The layer that is created by the tool is temporary and will not persist after the session ends unless the document is saved. The Make WCS Layer tool is contained in the Data Management Tools tool box.

Software restrictions: none

Usage tips:

• Use this tool creates a raster layer from an image service.
• The output can be the entire image service or a portion of it.
• You can clip out a portion of the image service by choosing an output extent layer or by specifying the rectangle extent. If you choose an output extent layer, the clip extent will be based upon extent of that layer.
• The output can be created with only a subset of the bands. This will help save on time and disk space.

Constructor Detail

MakeWCSLayer

public MakeWCSLayer()

Creates the Make WCS Layer tool with defaults.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the default values specified when the tool was created.

MakeWCSLayer

public MakeWCSLayer(Object inWcsCoverage,
                    Object outWcsLayer)

Creates the Make WCS Layer tool with the required parameters.

Initializes the array of tool parameters with the values as specified for the required parameters and with the default values for the other parameters.

Parameters:

inWcsCoverage - WCS layer, the name of the input WCS service.

outWcsLayer - Raster layer, the name of the output WCS layer.

Method Detail

getInWcsCoverage

public Object getInWcsCoverage()

Returns the Input WCS Coverage parameter of this tool . This parameter is WCS layer, the name of the input WCS service. This is a required parameter.

Returns:

the Input WCS Coverage

setInWcsCoverage

public void setInWcsCoverage(Object inWcsCoverage)

Sets the Input WCS Coverage parameter of this tool . This parameter is WCS layer, the name of the input WCS service. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:

inWcsCoverage - WCS layer, the name of the input WCS service.

getOutWcsLayer

public Object getOutWcsLayer()

Returns the Output WCS Layer parameter of this tool . This parameter is Raster layer, the name of the output WCS layer. This is a required parameter.

Returns:

the Output WCS Layer

setOutWcsLayer

public void setOutWcsLayer(Object outWcsLayer)

Sets the Output WCS Layer parameter of this tool . This parameter is Raster layer, the name of the output WCS layer. This is a required parameter.

Parameters:

outWcsLayer - Raster layer, the name of the output WCS layer.

getTemplate

public Object getTemplate()

Returns the Template Extent parameter of this tool . This parameter is Layer, the output extent of the WCS layer. The output extent can either be specified by defining the area to be clipped (X-Minimum, Y-Minimum, X-Maximum, Y-Maximum) or by using the extent of an existing layer. This is an optional parameter.

Returns:

the Template Extent

setTemplate

public void setTemplate(Object template)

Sets the Template Extent parameter of this tool . This parameter is Layer, the output extent of the WCS layer. The output extent can either be specified by defining the area to be clipped (X-Minimum, Y-Minimum, X-Maximum, Y-Maximum) or by using the extent of an existing layer. This is an optional parameter.

Parameters:

template - Layer, the output extent of the WCS layer. The output extent can either be specified by defining the area to be clipped (X-Minimum, Y-Minimum, X-Maximum, Y-Maximum) or by using the extent of an existing layer.

getBandIndex

public Object getBandIndex()

Returns the Bands parameter of this tool . This parameter is Bands, choose which bands to export from the image service. If no bands are specified, then all the bands will be used in the output. This is an optional parameter.

Returns:

the Bands

setBandIndex

public void setBandIndex(Object bandIndex)

Sets the Bands parameter of this tool . This parameter is Bands, choose which bands to export from the image service. If no bands are specified, then all the bands will be used in the output. This is an optional parameter.

Parameters:

bandIndex - Bands, choose which bands to export from the image service. If no bands are specified, then all the bands will be used in the output.
