Constructor Detail

DefaultCoverageDescription

public DefaultCoverageDescription()

Constructs an empty coverage description.

DefaultCoverageDescription

public DefaultCoverageDescription(CoverageDescription source)

Constructs a metadata entity initialized with the values from the specified metadata.

Parameters:

source - The metadata to copy, or null if none.

Since:

2.4

Method Detail

castOrCopy

public static DefaultCoverageDescription castOrCopy(CoverageDescription object)

Returns a Geotk metadata implementation with the same values than the given arbitrary implementation. If the given object is null, then this method returns null. Otherwise if the given object is already a Geotk implementation, then the given object is returned unchanged. Otherwise a new Geotk implementation is created and initialized to the attribute values of the given object, using a shallow copy operation (i.e. attributes are not cloned).

This method checks for the ImageDescription sub-interface. If that interface is found, then this method delegates to the corresponding castOrCopy static method.

Parameters:

object - The object to get as a Geotk implementation, or null if none.

Returns:

A Geotk implementation containing the values of the given object (may be the given object itself), or null if the argument was null.

Since:

3.18

getAttributeDescription

public RecordType getAttributeDescription()

Returns the description of the attribute described by the measurement value.

Specified by:

getAttributeDescription in interface CoverageDescription

setAttributeDescription

public void setAttributeDescription(RecordType newValue)

Sets the description of the attribute described by the measurement value.

Parameters:

newValue - The new attribute description.

getContentType

public CoverageContentType getContentType()

Returns the type of information represented by the cell value.

Specified by:

getContentType in interface CoverageDescription

setContentType

public void setContentType(CoverageContentType newValue)

Sets the type of information represented by the cell value.

Parameters:

newValue - The new content type.

getDimensions

public Collection<RangeDimension> getDimensions()

Returns the information on the dimensions of the cell measurement value.

Specified by:

getDimensions in interface CoverageDescription

Since:

2.4

setDimensions

public void setDimensions(Collection<? extends RangeDimension> newValues)

Sets the information on the dimensions of the cell measurement value.

Parameters:

newValues - The new dimensions.

Since:

2.4

getRangeElementDescriptions

public Collection<RangeElementDescription> getRangeElementDescriptions()

Provides the description of the specific range elements of a coverage.

Specified by:

getRangeElementDescriptions in interface CoverageDescription

Returns:

Description of the specific range elements of a coverage.

Since:

3.03

setRangeElementDescriptions

public void setRangeElementDescriptions(Collection<? extends RangeElementDescription> newValues)

Sets the description of the specific range elements of a coverage.

Parameters:

newValues - The new range element description.

Since:

3.03
