Method Summary

IRasterDataset	importFromASCII(String asciiFile, IWorkspace outWorkspace, String outRasterName, String outRasterFormat, boolean isInteger) Imports a GRID ASCII file into a RasterDataset.
IRasterDataset	importFromFLOAT(String floatFile, IWorkspace outWorkspace, String outRasterName, String outRasterFormat) Imports a Float GRID file into a RasterDataset.
IRasterDataset	importFromUSGSDEM(String demFile, IWorkspace outWorkspace, String outRasterName, String outRasterFormat) Imports a USGS DEM file into a RasterDataset.

Method Detail

importFromUSGSDEM

IRasterDataset importFromUSGSDEM(String demFile,
                                 IWorkspace outWorkspace,
                                 String outRasterName,
                                 String outRasterFormat)
                                 throws IOException,
                                        AutomationException

Imports a USGS DEM file into a RasterDataset.

Remarks

demFile	The input USGS DEM file to be converted
OutWorkspace	An object specifying the directory or subdirectory to contain the output raster dataset
outRasterName	The name of the output raster dataset to be created
OutRasterFormat	ESRI GRID, ERDAS Imagine or TIFF formats are supported. The strings for outRasterFormat are "GRID", "IMAGINE Image" and "TIFF" respectively and they are case sensitive. The format string “GRID” creates an output ESRI GRID with no file extension The format string "TIFF" creates a TIFF file with ".tif" extension. ArcGIS also supports TIFF format with ".tiff" and ".tff" extensions. A format string "TIF" creates a TIFF file with ".tiff" extention and a format string "TFF" creates a TIFF file with ".tff" extension The format string “IMAGINE Image” creates a raster output with “.img” file extension

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Parameters:

demFile - The demFile (in)

outWorkspace - A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IWorkspace (in)

outRasterName - The outRasterName (in)

outRasterFormat - The outRasterFormat (in)

Returns:

A reference to a com.esri.arcgis.geodatabase.IRasterDataset

Throws:

IOException - If there are interop problems.

AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

importFromASCII

The format string “GRID” creates an output ESRI GRID with no file extension The format string "TIFF" creates a TIFF file with ".tif" extension. ArcGIS also supports TIFF format with ".tiff" and ".tff" extensions. A format string "TIF" creates a TIFF file with ".tiff" extention and a format string "TFF" creates a TIFF file with ".tff" extension The format string “IMAGINE Image” creates a raster output with “.img” file extension
isInteger	A Boolean specifying the data type of the output raster If TRUE, an integer raster will be created If FALSE, a floating-point raster will be created
