Remarks

The CreateRasterCatalog method creates a new empty raster catalog in a Personal, File or ArcSDE geodatabase. At releases prior to 9.2, When you create a raster catalog, you need to set the x/y domain on the GeometryDef properly to cover the extents of all the rasters you will be loading to the raster catalog. If the extent of a raster dataset is beyond the specified x/y domain of the GeometryDef, it will not be loaded. Since 9.2, the x/y domain is optimized according to the spatial reference of the geometry column, so you do not need to set it manually.
